Sara Duterte’s revenge tour? VP slams reelectionist impeachment backers in their turf
Vice President Sara Duterte joined Isko Moreno's campaign rallies, seen by analysts as a "revenge tour" against impeachment supporters.
Duterte campaigned with Moreno in Tondo, Manila, the district of Representative Rolando Valeriano, a vocal critic.
During a rally, Duterte mocked Valeriano's voice and appearance, quoting "Yung congressman ninyo, 'yan 'yung mukha ng distrito ninyo. 'Yan yung pambato ninyo doon sa House of Representatives. Unang-una sa sobrang laki ng leeg niya naiipit na 'yung boses niya."
Valeriano had previously delivered a privilege speech against Duterte and initiated impeachment proceedings.
Duterte's actions are interpreted as a strategy to support her senatorial candidates and indirectly criticize President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and his allies.
