Well, someone had to say it.
Yesterday’s presidential debate was a disappointment, with all five presidential candidates throwing motherhood statements left and right, and not one of them tough enough to push their rival in a corner.
In a series of tweets, showbiz personality Vice Ganda called them out.
The 40-year-old celebrity said the promises made by the presidential bets — Jejomar Binay, Miriam Defensor Santiago, Rodrigo Duterte, Grace Poe and Mar Roxas — in the debate were the same promises made by the candidates before them.
“Pero sa ending NGANGA,” he said.
Vice was also unconvinced with the answers the five bets gave regarding issues such as traffic and contractual employment.
#PiliPinasDebates2016 Ganda ng mga plano nila para sa TRAFFIC. Sa madaling salita di masosolve ang traffic anytime soon. Saklap!

#PiliPinasDebates2016 Di pala kayo pabor sa ENDO e bakit di nyo ginawan ng paraan nung mga senador pa at bise presidente kayo?

In the end, he said:
Sino man ang manalo sa huli’t huli ang mga sarili pa rin natin ang tangi nating maasahang tumupad sa pangarap nating magandang buhay.

We feel you, Vice.
The comedian, who has 7 million followers on Twitter and of the country’s most bankable stars, has yet to endorse a presidential candidate. During the 2010 national elections, Vice endorsed Noynoy Aquino.
A number of celebs also took to social media to comment about the debate.
Pumayat na si Binay sa kakalakad. Try ko nga rin.

Sa akin lang.. Mar won the debate rounds, and Grace gave the best closing statement.
