VP Sara Duterte Jokingly Compares Her Impeachment to Break-up
In a press conference held earlier at the Office of the Vice President in Mandaluyong, Vice President Sara Duterte did not escape jokes about the issues she is facing, such as impeachment and relationship issues.

Despite the controversies surrounding her, she gave a humorous statement that really made the attending members of the media laugh. With Valentine’s Day approaching, she joked about the more painful experience of a person—being dumped by a boyfriend, compared to the impeachment process she is currently facing.
Towards the end of the press conference, Vice President Sara gave a statement that opened people’s eyes to the true feelings she may be going through. “It hurts more to be dumped by a boyfriend or girlfriend than to be impeached by the House of Representatives,” VP Sara joked.
This joke of hers is a demonstration of her openness and cheerfulness, even though the country is currently going through a difficult political period. It shows that even a strong government official has moments of humor and jokes that bring comfort to people, especially despite the serious issues being discussed in the country.
Even before her joke, VP Sara inserted her opinion about her impeachment, and this was through a short statement with a heavy meaning: “GOD SAVE THE PHILIPPINES.”
This is a profound statement, reflecting her vision as a leader of the country, that the Philippines will continue to succeed despite the trials and crises it faces. This statement shows her faith in the country, and in its current situation, as well as in the challenges to come.
To the questions pursued by the media, VP Sara enthusiastically gave answers. But there were some questions that she did not answer, she mentioned that she and her lawyers are currently busy preparing for her impeachment process, so she cannot answer them right now. The vice president took a fair step to explain that the impeachment process is a legal matter and there are necessary steps to proceed in the right way.
As a government official, Vice President Sara Duterte has not been immune to political controversies. Despite the harsh trials she faces, such as the impeachment filed against her by the House of Representatives, she showed in the press conference that she has the courage and is able to joke and make people laugh. Perhaps these jokes are a way to somehow relieve tension and provide comfort to people in the midst of difficult political issues.
However, the serious aspect of her statements cannot be avoided. His reluctance to answer specific questions about the impeachment shows his respect for the legal process and the country’s legal system. Despite all this, Vice President Sara continues to hope that he will overcome the challenges and achieve success, not only for himself but also for the entire country.
This press conference demonstrated a leader’s ability to balance seriousness and joy, and proves that despite all the difficulties, the government will continue to succeed by showing strength, hope, and concern for the country.ment.
