  1. It doesn't matter how many times the Chinese regime repeats the lies,
    or how angry it pretends to be,
    – Taiwan 🇹🇼 is still an independent country

  2. Taiwan has shown resilience in the face of threats, and remains a great democracy in the East. 🇹🇼

  3. DPP's worldview coincides with the KMT's. It overlooks what is really happening on their island where young and old people are suffering every day. Ironically, if there is no China, there is no DPP. SHAME on YOU, Lai and your friends.

  4. Republic of China, the country makes me proud as a Chinese, me as someone brought up under the ccp

  5. Congratulations President Lai Ching-Te of Taiwan! 🎉 Long Live Taiwanese Independence! 台獨萬歲。
