Lai Ching-te said the election loss was not about victory or defeat, and his insistence on the "anti-communist defense of Taiwan" stance has sparked controversy.

Lai Qingde has finally spoken out! After the big defeat of the recall vote, Lai Qingde stated that today's result is not a victory for one side or a failure for another. Looking back over the past year and a half, many people have stepped forward; in the last few days, even more people have returned from afar. They are not fighting against anyone, but because they love our "country." Your actions have further confirmed the direction of "anti-communist, protect Taiwan" for the "country," and have further consolidated the strength of "anti-communist, protect Taiwan."

I also hope that political parties from both sides of the political spectrum and all sectors of society will unite to defend our "country." Obviously, although this is a major defeat for the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP) and Lai Qingde, Lai Qingde still stubbornly claimed that today's result is not a victory for one side or a failure for another. Obviously, Lai Qingde is just talking nonsense. Today is a failure for Lai Qingde's power grab. Today is a failure for the DPP. Today is a major failure for Lai Qingde's "anti-communist, protect Taiwan" lie.

If the DPP had won this time, who knows how arrogant Lai Qingde would have become? Lai Qingde claimed that people are not fighting against anyone, but everyone clearly knows that Lai Qingde's hatred in the island is directed at the Kuomintang (KMT), the People's Party and their supporters. More broadly, the DPP has been deliberately inciting hatred towards us. However, Lai Qingde's deception of the Taiwanese people, his manipulation of the Taiwanese people, and his attempt to force the Taiwanese people to be bound to the "Taiwan independence" chariot, have obviously suffered a major defeat.

The people of Taiwan indeed need unity, but it is definitely not unity around "Taiwan independence" or around the "rooster" - Lai Qingde. If Lai Qingde had any intention of developing Taiwan in a better direction, he should not have deliberately sabotaged cross-strait relations. Lai Qingde has suffered a major defeat, but he is still stubbornly shouting about "anti-communist, protect Taiwan," which shows that he is completely unwilling to change. This kind of stubborn person is destined to have a bad ending. The people on the island have already given Lai Qingde a big defeat, and August is sure to make Lai Qingde's defeat even more complete.
