Duterte says U.S. has lost, aligns Philippines with China
« on: October 20, 2016, 12:32:30 pm »
BEIJING, Oct 20 (Reuters) - Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte announced his "separation" from the United States on Thursday, declaring that it had "lost" and he had realigned with China as the two agreed to resolve their South China Sea dispute through talks.

Duterte made his comments in China, where he is visiting with at least 200 business people to pave the way for what he calls a new commercial alliance as relations with longtime ally the United States deteriorate.

His trade secretary, Ramon Lopez, said $13.5 billion in deals would be signed

Another "win" for Hillary's diplomacy.  Just think of all the "wins" she can do as president. You ain't seen nothing yet!

Yup, let's not vote for the only person that can prevent Madame President. /s

Crazy.  Duterte was elected two years after Hillary left. 

Besides, this sumbitch is a nutter therefore Trump likely is in love with him.
Roy Moore's "spiritual warfare" is driving past a junior high without stopping.
