Philippines has gotta stop with these actors and celebrities entering politics. And also the dynasties (sometimes composed of entertainers). How does being on a variety show or a soap opera qualify someone for high office?

Can you imagine if someone pulled this nonsense in the states???

I didn’t say it since I didn’t want to bring US shithousery politics into the thread.
