MANILA — The political landscape is agog these days with party feud and likely to worsen as the country moves toward the 2025 midterm elections and 2028 presidential election.
VP Sara, in fighting mood eversince she cut off her umbilical cord with PBBM, had declared its now point of no return, citing political differences as “unreconcilable”.
The Marcos and Duterte families has become fiercer, nastier, and more personal with a surprising exempt from Senator Imee Marcos who solidly backed up her best friend VP Sara, no matter what.
After VP Sara left her post as education secretary in June, she faced a series of congressional probes related to her alleged misuse of funds.
As response, VP Sara went public in October and ridiculed the leadership of PBBM as “a president who knows nothing”.
VP Sara even harbored thoughts of beheading the PBBM out of anger, and warned that she would exhume the remains of PBBM’s dictator- father the late Ferdinand Marcos Sr. and throw it into the West Philippine Sea.
It was VP Sara’s father, the combative former President Digong, who allowed the burial of the Marcos patriarch in the Heroes’ Cemetery in 2016.
Back to the recent developments, It was that coalition called Uniteam that clinched a landslide victory in the 2022 elections, giving PBBM the second chance to be back in Malacanang where he spent his childhood until that historic, bloodless EDSA in 1984.
But their political marriage has ended too early, that led to an open clash, and more political clashes are seen in the coming days as we get nearer to the midterm election in May 2025.
So what’s in store for PH politics?
Our country is not new to struggling through one crisis after another, politics included.
The relentless shocks brought about by political rivalry these days, combined with reported corruption blows in the Marcos administration will most likely, plung the country into inflation, unexplained debt, and economic crisis.
