Cayetano vs Trillanes, New Word War Over Matobato


Current Senators, Alan Peter Cayetano and Antonio Trillanes IV repeated their heated word war at the Senate when they traded insults on Monday with the later saying he would not retreat from a former friend. The said word war happened after Cayetano questioned Trillanes right after his privilege speech in defense of the credibility of Senate witness Edgar Motabato.

Both Senators accused each other of saying statements that aren't really that true and of trying to get away from heated discussion according to a report on 24 Oras by Jam Sisante.

"I bring up the doctrine or the concept of half-truths because this is what criminals use and this is what people na naninira or people who want to destroy the credibility of others use," Cayetano said.

"I would rather concede and accept the argument of the senator because apparently he may be following the doctrine of it takes one to know one," Trillanes responded.

During Trillanes' privilege speech intended for the integrity of Matobato who was accused by the President Rodrigo Duterte of being against the killings of many mistook for the so-called Davao Death Squad when Duterte was still the Mayor of Davao City.

Trillanes defended Matobato saying that his statements was consistent, different from what Cayetano would describe, a loyal political ally of the President.

"I asked that he be interpellated kung tatakbo siya, ayaw na niya magpainterpellate that's his call," Cayetano then said.

"If the gentleman keeps on saying that i would want to run away, if you will recall when I sat beside him during the hearing he was the one who ran away," Trillanes responded.

Trillanes in a hearing of the Senate Committee on Justice two weeks ago where he supposedly told Cayetano, "Hindi kita papo-pormahin."Trillanes said while Cayetano was in the middle of questioning Matobato.

Annoyed by Trillanes, Cayetano moved one seat away from his party mate in the Nationalista Party.

"Sabi niya sa akin pa-Bibile-Bible ka pa evil naman yung pinoprotektahan mo. But for the record anytime anywhere, hindi kita nun aatrasan e," Cayetano said.
