Trump Invites President Who Called Obama the “Son of a Whore” to The White House


The special advisor to the Philippine president Christopher Go said that not only did Trump invite Duterte to America, but Duterte invited Trump next year’s Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit.

Duterte maintains a rocky relationship with the Obama administration, calling President Barack Obama a “son of a whore” and telling him to “go to hell.” Obama’s persistent lecturing and criticisms of Duterte’s brutal drug war infuriate the Philippine president.

At one point, he even announced his “separation from America.” Duterte has since walked back those statements and promised to uphold existing agreements.

Duterte made multiple overtures to China and Russia, casting uncertainty over the U.S.-Philippines alliance.

Defense ties remain strong; however, the relationship at the presidential level has been unstable, but that may change under Trump.

Duterte was among the first world leaders to congratulate Trump after he won the presidential election.

Duterte has now likened himself to Trump:

Profane Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte lashed out at Washington on Saturday, declaring “Bye-bye America,” as he threatened to repeal a 1998 agreement that lets American troops conduct military exercises in his country.

In the latest salvo in a dispute over the Filipino leader’s deadly crackdown on drug use in his country, Duterte warned Americans, “prepare to leave the Philippines.”

But he suggested that relations could improve — come January.

“I like your mouth,” Duterte said of President-elect Donald Trump.

“It’s like mine — yes, Mr. President. We are similar and people with the same feathers flock together.”

It looks like under the Trump administration, America might actually experience a period of peace and unity with the rest of the world – the Middle East excluded. This is what it means to be President, social beliefs have little to do with it, though millennials only seem to care about that when it comes to voting.
