During the latest press briefing with the Malacanang Press Corps inside the Palace, GMA Reporter Joseph Morong asked Spox Harry Roque on why is it that Pres. Duterte keeps on repeating that the country is better off being govern by a dictator compared to the possibility of VP Leni Robredo's succession as President.
