Mali ang sinabi ni Presidential Spokesperson Salvador Panelo na si Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte ay palaging nag-iiwan ng isang "bintanang" bukas para sa usapang pangkapayapaan sa Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP) at founding chair na si Jose Maria Sison.
Contrary to Panelo's claim, Duterte was not always "open" to talking peace with the CPP-NPA-NDF.

Ang epekto ng malakas na personalidad ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte ay tila naipasa sa mga taong katrabaho niya at mga humahanga sa kanya. Ginagaya si Duterte ng mga kaalyado, lalo na kung pinag-uusapan ang pangunahing program ng gobyerno na giyera laban sa droga at kontra katiwalian.
The effect of President Rodrigo Duterte’s strong personality has apparently rubbed off on people he works closely with and those who admire him. Duterte's allies mimic him, especially when talking about his government’s banner program of war on drugs and anti-corruption.

Ang dating mamamahayag ng broadcast na si Jay Sonza, na dati nang nagkakalat ng maling impormasyon online, ay nagbitaw ng maling pahayag na “nais kopyahin” ni United States President Donald Trump ang giyera laban sa droga ni Pangulong Rodrigo Duterte.
Former broadcast journalist Jay Sonza, who has previously spread misleading information online, falsely claimed United States President Donald Trump "wants to replicate" President Rodrigo Duterte’s drug war.
