World leaders congratulated Taiwan’s ruling Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) for a historic third presidential term even as President Biden warned that the U.S. will not endorse independence for the island.

I was all excited about this CCP defeat. Maybe they can’t cheat their way out of a landslide...
Come to find out Taiwan has paper ballots and hand counting.
If we have to wait for fair elections, I’m afraid we are a day late and a dollar short...
Washington D.C. is a province of the PRC. Should be changed on maps…
Unbelievable. Words escape me. How can the White House occupant say he doesn’t support independence for a sovereign nation? The man makes me ashamed to be an American.

Uncle Sam vewy vewy bad.
The vegetable wants millions to die...
Joe Biteme is kicking the supports out of a defense of Taiwan’s independence. That influence peddling has its influence.

You anti-American POS.
We are Americans. We fight for liberty and justice FOR ALL.
Not red Chinese diaper communism!
We don’t?
Biden doesn’t support independence for us either. Slaves to the state.
What a jerk.
Who is a threat to Democracy?
Chang Kai Shek is rolling over in his grave.
