Netizens take sides after Jake Ejercito slams Georgina Wilson for anti-Erap tweet


For posting a rather nasty tweet against former President and now Manila mayor-elect Joseph Estrada, model and TV host Georgina Wilson got a mouthful of response from Estrada’s young son and rising matinee idol Jake Ejercito.

Georgina’s tweet, which she has since deleted went, “ugh i hate politics – but I only have one thing to say: Anyone that votes for Erap is a f***ing idiot.”

The young Ejercito’s retort? “Ms. Wilson, social media might be a free world but I think it’s quite irresponsible to express such an opinion unless you are well-versed with the current situation of the city of Manila and how the present local administration has failed to handle it. Moreover, to call 325,288 Manileños, including the 9.4 million Filipinos who voted for him in 2010, ‘fucking idiots’ is harsh and truly uncalled for. Don’t hate without knowing the facts.”

Jake’s tweet immediately drew responses from several netizens on Twitter who either took his side or that of Georgina. An expected word war between the two did not materialize as Georgina did not respond to Jake’s post and did not tweet anything more about the matter.
