      Also, add to the fact that Leni and Pacquiao were a threat to win and they didn't seem to have clear platforms and I'm not sure if both actually knows economics based on their interviews.

    For the record, the root cause of this "ImpUniteam" rift would be Marcos Jr.'s shift in stances regarding the country's territorial integrity, especially with the rising cases of incidents towards PHL vessels, courtesy of the CCP Coast Guard and the Militia vessels they have been using as blockades. The Dutertes are known to have more open ties with the CCP's leadership, and they see Marcos Jr.'s shift back to the United States as a massive liability.

I'll be honest, I hate the Marcoses, but I hate the Dutertes more. Marcos actually did some things we wanted to happen such as Former Sen. Leila De Lima's freedom and acquittal after the older Duterte imprisoned her because she was investigating the Drug War mentioned in the video and actually fighting back China's aggression at the West Philippine Sea.

    In my opinion:
    In the 2025 elections, I think the House of Representatives will remain pro-Marcos, or at least the (super)majority of it. The padrino system in the Philippines is too strong where, whoever the President is, the Representatives will ally with the President. The electoral system is too difficult to make voters elect who they actually want to represent in the lower House.
    The padrino system is also strong in the Senate. However, the current Senate still has pro-Duterte allies like Bong Go, Bato, and Robin Padilla, and even those lowkey ones like Jinggoy Estrada, Cynthia Villar, and Grace Poe.
    Ultimately, I think it is the Senate that will decide whether the Duterte family still have influence or not. I don't think getting impeached by the House of Representatives is enough to stop the Duterte family from running in the 2028 elections. If the Senate completely flips to pro-Marcos, not only will Sara get impeached, but she will most likely get removed from office too.
    Anyways, frick the political dynasties. Although I'm a bit thankful that Marcos is just a moderate politician, concentrating powers to certain families is not how politics should be.

      Political Parties are starting to take hold though. Duverger's Law states that in FPTP systems, two main parties end up emerging, and Nacionalista, Lakas, and NPC are stabilizing to become the main national parties.
      Nacionalista, led by the Villars, has endured, now having 5 senators, in tie with NPC (which is also a breakaway from the NP), and has 36 representatives (also in tie w/NPC). They could've emerged early as the main party of the right, if Estrada didn't run and gave Villar a strong 2nd in 2010.
      NPC, led by the Cojuangcos and Sotto, is also stabilizing, looking to be the "neutral but allied to the administration" party, with the numbers tied w/NP.
      Lakas, led by Arroyo and Romualdez, has also proved to be resilient (w/three mergers in history), electing 2 presidents now, FVR and GMA on the party, Rodrigo Duterte & BBM by support and machinery, and 3 VPs (GMA, Guingona, and Sara Duterte). They also have 100 representatives, almost half of the House, with the speaker Romualdez also as their member.
      The Liberal Party could've took root as the main party of the left, due to its voter base being very cohesive, but the remaining opposition took the LP as a lost cause and left it, which is a mistake imo.
      The PFP, BBM's party, even with 36 governorships, is looking to be just a vehicle, and will probably crash and burn just like the KBL.
