Senator Dick Gordon refuses to take any smack even from
President Rodrigo Duterte who recently called him a “smart ass who walks like a
penguin”, making fun of him.
“Kailangan marunong ka mag-forgive at forget, ‘di naman ako
pwedeng itulak-tulak, ‘di naman ako papayag na binubully lang tayo,” Gordon
said in an interview, as reported by Politiko
Despite the comment from the President, Gordon stood by his criticism
against appointment of too many ex-generals in the Cabinet and administration.
“Wala namang isyu ng bullying dyan di naman ako mapipigilan
ng Pangulo kung sabihin nagiingat lang ako para sa ‘yo baka mamaya ‘yung mga
inaappoint mo hindi gusto ng tao. Masama ba yun?
Dapat tangkilikin nga nya ‘yun
na may kaibigan siyang ganun,” explains Gordon
“Pero ‘wag naman tayo ganyan palagi, hindi naman maganda na
Presidente ka, mang-iinsulto ka palagi. Marami tayo problema ngayon, may dengue
tayo, may WPS (West Philippine Sea) pa. Hayaan na lang niya si Dick Gordon na
malaki ang tiyan, ‘yung asawa ko inaalagaan n’ya yun,” the senator stressed
Gordon said that he still considered President Duterte a
friend despite his punch lines against him.
“Sino bang ayaw maging kaibigan si presidente lalo na’t
marami kayong napagdaanan bilang mayor? Okay lang ako doon, ‘di naman ako
napipikon doon.
"Ganyan naman talaga si Presidente, ganyan naman talaga ang
demokrasya, may mga naninira. Kailan niyo ba ako nakitang naninira?” he added
