If the former, it makes sense to back the KMT and not waste the vote on a third party that cannot win. The future of Taiwan, and its prosperity, lies with closer ties with China, not war.

Russell Brand on the US war plans for Taiwan – DON’T MISS IT
The world wants to be free of Western slavery, and its propaganda and bombs. Even just the far east, think of the hundreds of thousands of bombs dropped on Vietnam, Korea, Laos, Cambodia. The hundreds of military bases encircling China. And the trade war. The West plans the destruction of Taiwan. The West is not going to 'save' Taiwan; it is going to destroy it. The US never has any other country's interest at heart; it is solely about keeping them down, to be merely a slave. It is never about peace; it is only ever about dominion; think 'protection racket'. Don't be fooled again ! A must see ... In China, the people are family. In the West, the people are merely livestock.
