I am truly disappointed, frustrated, and affected.
I have close Filipino friends, people I respect (and I still do) who seem to think that Biden and Harris are heaven’s gift to America and to the world.
I understand that the sources of U.S news in the Philippines (and the rest of the world) are mostly from the super liberal, left-leaning media here.
But I can’t help but to expect more from them, to do their own research and not just believe whatsoever, especially if they also give importance to the same values I do.
I’m sure they might feel the same way about me when they read this. They might not understand where I am coming from and I pray they will read this post completely.
Did you ever try to ask the actual experience, observations and thoughts of people you know here? Those who are Christians, hardworking, and are legally here?
Unless you know someone who live in a very liberal state/city and their mentality and views got affected/brainwash already, most hardworking people here (citizens and legal immigrants) will tell you their positive experiences under Trump especially on their finances. I know a lot of hardworking people who are more than satisfied with their Return of Investment (ROI), they reached their financial goals (that supposed to take another 10 years to reach) under his administration. Ask people who have a 401k, an investment type retirement fund and they will tell you that since Trump started their ROI went up, compared to how it was under Obama where it was stagnant.
He may not speak very presidentiable but he get important things done. Ask soldiers and veterans and you’ll get positive feedback too. Believe in the #RealHeroes. #HappyVeteransDay
Trump is always being compared to Duterte, the way they speak maybe but even that I know Duterte speaks in a more rude manner. For me, they have more differences (You can read my older post about that, Differences between Trump and Duterte)
Duterte is a puppet of China and more. Duterte is more like the Democrats here. Full of promises but where will they get the fund? Additional taxes from hardworking people. And more spending to the increasing number of people dependent to the government. I am not against helping the disable, elderly and children. But how about those who are abled? Democrats seem to like that. Opposed to the small government, the more the people depends on them the better. Controlling people is easier that way.
If it is too good to be true, it is a SCAM. If they are politicians their whole life, they are trained to give speeches to convince/brainwash people.
I tried reading hundreds of articles from both conservative and liberal media outlets, university and research websites before posting this. And I got more disappointment. The mainstream media and social media giants here are left-leaning. I read that even Google was asked to come to the Senate to explain. I was shocked when one day my husband and I can’t find this particular critical news about Biden if you click Google News specifically. Even when we type the appropriate keywords to find it. Most probably it was on the last pages. People always check the first few pages result, and they know that. I've read SEO specialists explanations too.
I can’t help but ask too about my friends’ happiness on Biden-Harris projected win.
Are you happy because Harris is the first female VP? first Black and first Asian American? I hope for the same thing but not her. She is way too different even to our own VP Leni Robredo.
Did you know she supports pro abortion/infanticide which is sweetly called pro choice here? Biden promised to reverse the Hyde Amendment and force taxpayers to fund abortion clinics. Don’t you think we should pray they fund more adoption centers and the likes instead? I am also praying that the fetal heartbeat bill will be a law in most states, if possible in the whole country. Trump supported it but not Biden & Harris.
Did you know Biden and Harris have socialist tendencies? But more for her and she’s even proud of it. Bad news though, socialism never works.
Of course they’ll argue it will if it is combined with capitalism but a little bit more of what the U.S already have and boom God bless America! The U.S. currently has elements of socialism, such as Social Security, Medicare, and unemployment.
Israel, India, and the United Kingdom all adopted socialism as an economic model following World War II. Socialism is guilty of a fatal conceit: It believes its system can make better decisions for the people than they can for themselves. Socialism has failed in every country in which it has been tried. *
Some are saying, Democrats might ditch Biden and put her as the President.
Did you check the news about Biden’s and his son’s business relation to China and how much they got? Oh and also Russia. Check out how he raised his son Hunter to do what he did on his own brother’s widow. Biden’s sniffing young girl’s hair and kissing female strangers in the lips (yep just like Duterte) also creeps me out.
The media here is truly plausible, reporting everything about Trump and silent about Biden.
In politics, they say you choose the lesser evil. I just hope they are not choosing a devil-in-guise. The same thing happened in the Philippines, they thought Duterte is the hero but who’s hero he is to whom now?
I bet China and the 4million Chinese he just accepted in the Philippines and given jobs. And the Marcoses, Imelda Marcos who is given a guilty conviction but still runs free outside of prison. Duh, old age and compassion my foot. Spell priority.
