Both Donald Trump, 70, and Hillary Clinton, 69, agree that the United States should take it slowly when it comes to winding down the war on drugs. On the issue of war drugs, Philippine president Rodrigo Duterte, 71, appears to be the most controversial among all leaders in the world today.
On Oct. 15, Saturday, Trump was in a rally in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. The Republican candidate challenged Clinton to take a drug test before the third and final U.S. presidential debate, which will be held on Oct. 19 at the University of Nevada in Las Vegas.
"I think we should take a drug test prior to the debate because I don't know what's going on with her," CNN quoted Trump as saying, referring to Clinton during the rally in Portsmouth. "But at the beginning of her last debate, she was all pumped up at the beginning, and at the end it was like, huff, take me down. She could barely reach her car."
Trump did not offer any evidence to back up his claim against his Democratic opponent. Apparently, the former host of "The Celebrity Apprentice" confused the second presidential debate with the 9/11 ceremony on Sept. 11 in New York City, where a bout of pneumonia forced Clinton to require assistance while getting into her van.
On the other hand, Duterte is set to visit a drug rehabilitation center in China. On Oct. 14, Friday, Chinese Ambassador to the Philippines Zhao Jianhua said the Filipino president will go to Beijing where he will visit a traffic control center.
"The President has never mentioned the Great Wall," Rappler quoted Zhao as saying when asked if Duterte has requested to visit specific places like the Great Wall of China. "He asked about whether there is a rehabilitation center in Beijing, and he also asked about whether we have a center of traffic control in Beijing."
While apparently building stronger ties with China, Duterte slammed U.S. President Barack Obama, 55, for criticizing the Philippine war on drugs. It has yet to be seen if the next U.S. president, be it Trump or Clinton, exerts an effort to be on the same page with Duterte on the issue of war on drugs.
