On Monday, February 7, several supporters of President Rodrigo Duterte have Vice President Leni Robredo as their new presidential bet.
A lot of those who once supported, especially celebrities have now expressed vocally or subtly withdrew their support for the incumbent President, and have chosen to go against the current Administration.
In the 2016 elections, singer and theater actress Bituin Escalante regretted voting for the incumbent President. In response to the problems that had engulfed Duterte’s presidency, in 2018 she tweeted:
I WAS the 16M but i love my country more than the president.

The Barrettos, a family friend of Pres. Duterte, recently went viral on social media after they were visited by Robredo.Â
Marjorie Barretto even admitted that she voted for the President during the 2016 election.
While wearing pink, Marjorie along with her family, all welcomed the VP to their home. This confirmed that Julia Barretto’s mother is a certified ‘kakampink’.
On the other hand, former Duterte supporters Jayson Abalos and Angelica Panganiban have yet to reveal their chosen candidate.
