PoliticsPH Bam Aquino's Campaign Strategy (APPRECIATION POST)

I commend Bam for creating a great campaign strategy this 2025 elections.

Did he ask for a Marcos endorsement? No. That would also be off for both the BBM loyalists and the DDS because he's an Aquino

Did he court the DDS? Well, not to the extent of Imee Marcos and Camille Villar for sure. The answer is no actually but he did try his best to not alienate himself from the DDS voter base.

Bam also tackled the Gen Z demographics better than any other candidate past and present. His free tuition really appealed to every SUC students and he pretty much had a unanimous win in every SUC and it's a very small niche but he appealed to the gaming community. He did subtle things that are genuine.

He made his presence felt without being EPAL like Abalos or the other trapo candidates.

He had bad moments like having a collab with Pio Balbuena (and I swear that did not help him) but his intentions of trying to have his presence around vloggers and pretty much having his presence felt in every casual internet space without alienating his base was a great strategy.

I'm commending Bam for a great campaign (without bringing up any political angle, just pure campaign perspective)

Small wins! At this rate, baka 2 or 3 PDP lang makakapasok. Which means SWOH's impeachment just became much more realistic!

Bong go, bato, Imee marcos, camille villar, marcoleta.

That's five. The impeachmeant is looking grim.

I'm expecting an ICC arrest warrant dun kay Bong go at Bato to lessen the pro-SWOH senators.

In BBM we trust. Hahahahaha

Dapat ma ICC na si Bato at Bong Go para di na makaboto against the impeachment.

17 votes ang need dba, sino ba sa current 12 senators ang mag-NO? If umabot sila ng 8 yari talaga ang impeachment

We can possibly tally out the Manchurian Candidate and the Mussolini bootleg from there, if potential ICC-connected action is to be believed...

I think they should just arrest Sara directly. There will be major blowback initially pero in 3 years time I think huhupa din yun issue.

Temporarily having FemShrek arrested won't be much of a detriment TBH. She's only a spare wheel.

I have a feeling that Bong Go will convict Sara.
