Duterte has something to say against Trillanes.
Tough-talking presidential candidate Rodrigo Duterte lambasted Sen. Antonio Trillanes IV during a rally in Pandacan, Manila.
“I don’t know him. I only met him twice,” he said during the campaign sortie.
According to the Davao City mayor, he met with the Nationalista Party vice presidential candidate last April 2015 wherein Trillanes discussed to him a possibility of running together.
“Nag-usap kami gusto niya maging presidente sa akin, ay vice, sabi ko, hindi ka pwede, madumi ang record mo. Sa militar, pinag-iinsulto mo pa yung mga heneral,” he noted.
A report of Inquirer.net also noted that the 71-year-old politician also sighted reasons why the former Navy officer is not deserving to win the vice presidential title in the upcoming 2016 elections set on May 9.
He stated that Senator Trillanes does not deserve the post after staging a coup d’etat which became popular all over the world and even caught the attention of numerous international media groups.
“I know the purpose. Para nasa news siya, baka sakali manalo siya,” he said. “That’s Trillanes. Be careful with that idiot,” he added.

The Davao City Mayor who’s running for the highest post in the land drew flak on various social media platforms and was heavily criticized by women’s groups and the church and other presidential contenders over his controversial remark to an incident that happened in 1989 which involved an Australian missionary.
Duterte has already made a public apology with regards to his remarks. Although, there are some who have accepted his apology yet there are groups including the Commission on Human Rights (CHR) who condemned his remark.
