A tiny group of far right bigots (so desperate for attention that they welcome “support” from now IN the US) is pretending to be louder and more numerous than they are by riding cheap trains and buses to various cities in Taiwan.  It’s the same few people at all of their rallies, not wide support from the 24 million citizens.  (If Taiwan weren’t so physically small, they couldn’t afford to travel and raise such a stink.)
