The word war between President Rodrigo Duterte and Senator Richard Gordon is far from over.
Duterte has recently insulted Gordon’s body figure and even called him a despot for leading the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee.
“You are a bully. The Filipino people can fight back against bullies,” Gordon said.

“Halatang-halata kayo. Namemersonal na kayo… Bakit ninyo ako inaaway? Ginagawa ko lang ang ang aking tungkulin,” he added.
Gordon remains unfazed over Duterte’s threats to destroy him.
“Saktan ninyo na ako… Pinatay na tatay ko, pinahirapan tatay ko, grinagranada, inaabangan. You think matatakot ako sa isang nilalang? Takot ako sa Diyos, takot ako sa tao pero hindi ako duwag,” the senator said.

“Quite frankly Mr. President, you are boring. Hindi po ako natatakot sa inyo. Hindi ako duwag. Do your worst, Mr. President as you did with ABS-CBN,” he added.
Gordon said that Duterte should protect the Filipino people and not his allies.
“Atty. Duterte is lawyering for his people, the Chinese. I ask him respectfully to lawyer for the Filipino people. Do your job,” he added. (TDT)
