Grow up first before you talk to me.
This was how Senator Antonio Trillanes IV responded on Wednesday to actor Robin Padilla鈥檚 challenge to the senator not to hide under the skirt of the Senate.
Trillanes has been holed up in the Senate since Tuesday after President Rodrigo Duterte ordered his arrest through a proclamation, revoking the amnesty granted to the senator by former President Benigno Simeon 鈥淣oynoy鈥� Aquino III.
鈥淎lam n鈥檡o itong si Robin Padilla, ilang taon na ba ito? Bakit hindi ito tumanda? Hindi ito nag-mature? Para kang nasa High school eh鈥︹�� the senator said in an interview at the Senate.
鈥淗ow will I take this guy seriously eh parang high school lang?鈥� Trillanes asked.
鈥淵ou grow up. Pag mature na siya, then he can talk to me, I鈥檒l give him my full attention,鈥� the senator added.
In a Facebook live video, the actor taunted Trillanes鈥� decision to stay in the Senate amid Duterte鈥檚 arrest order.
鈥淟umabas ka! Wag kang magtago sa saya ng Senado!鈥� (Get out! Don鈥檛 hide under the skirt of the Senate!)鈥� Padilla said.
The Senate leadership has decided not to allow the arrest of Trillanes or any senator inside its premises.聽 /vvp
