The former "Legislator" of the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), Guo Zhengliang, said on a Taiwanese media political commentary program "Lv Ye Xianzhuo" that if Lai Ching-te were truly to push for "Taiwan independence," he would take the initiative himself rather than delegate it to "Legislators." He pointed out that Lai Ching-te would only make moves in two situations: one is when the situation becomes urgent in 2027 and he plays the "unification vs. independence" card, and the other is when the "Judicial Yuan" interprets the land issue through "constitutional interpretation."

Guo Zhengliang mentioned that former "Legislator" Chen Wan-zhen once proposed a "constitutional interpretation" case, asking the "Judicial Yuan" to interpret the "land scope," but it was rejected by the "Constitutional Court" at that time on the grounds that it was a political case. Guo Zhengliang believes that under the current political environment, the DPP authorities would find it much easier to propose using the "Judicial Yuan" for "constitutional interpretation" than in the past. At the same time, he also admitted that if Lai Ching-te successfully wins re-election in 2028, the chances of war are quite high.
