AI-generated summary
The Taipei mayoral election held its first televised debate, with people from all walks of life evaluating the performance of the candidates.
The first TV debate in the Taipei mayoral election came to an end. Former legislator Shen Fuxiong gave Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan 84 points, while his opponent Shen Boyang scored 69 points. But Shen believes that Shen Boyang is already sitting on the altar, and he is not an ordinary god, but close to Guanyin Mazu. No matter how good Jiang Wanan behaves, it is still not easy to pull Shen Boyang off the altar, and it is too slow.
Shen Fuxiong said that he gave Jiang Wanan 84 points and Shen Boyang 69 points. The reason is very simple. No matter whether you are a congressman or a legislator, your position in the debate on October 31 will be no worse than that of Shen Boyang. Shen should have been preparing for a long time, and Shen is sitting on the altar close to Guanyin Mazu, but Shen's performance is worse than that of ordinary public opinion representatives in Taiwan.
Shen Fuxiong said that he watched the whole thing for two hours, but only watched it for five minutes before saying that Shen Boyang lost, and there was no need to watch the rest. Why? Because Shen started by talking about the three most important things: planting trees, child abuse cases and nutritious lunches, he was very surprised. A person who really wants to be the mayor, in the eyes of a great city, cares about these three things in the past four years and the next four years, right? Good luck! There is no need to read the following, so he said he lost.
But Shen Fuxiong said that so many months of campaigning have turned Shen Boyang into a god. "This god is no longer an ordinary god. This god is already sitting on the altar." No matter how well Jiang Wanan behaves now, it will not be easy to pull Shen Boyang off the altar, and it will be too slow.
However, Shen Fuxiong also said that the performance of the debate was that Jiang Wanan saved the entire Kuomintang. Without Jiang Wanan's performance, the Kuomintang would have been like a falling car, hitting the bottom as soon as it fell. With Jiang Wanan's performance in the debate, plus his future efforts, if Chiang had not lost the election, it would have been like a tree trunk protruding from a cliff, or a stone that happened to protrude from a cliff. The car would get stuck before it fell to the bottom of the valley. Because the car was stuck, the Kuomintang would still have something to look forward to. If it had not been stuck, the Kuomintang would have been doomed.
Asked whether the debate had loosened Shen Boyang's altar? Shen Fuxiong said bluntly, of course there is! But the TVBS poll said that Shen was a little immovable because it was not easy to move him because he had been sitting there for so long, but the debate became fermented as a starting point.

According to White House officials, the White House is formulating a plan. If the Democrats regain control of Congress in the midterm elections, the Trump administration will use executive power to continue to advance its agenda in areas such as immigration, tariffs, and federal spending.

The U.S. midterm elections are approaching, and experts predict that if the Democratic Party wins control of Congress, it will pose resistance to Trump's trade tariff policies. Although Democrats plan to push for the repeal of the tariff bill, Trump's trade agenda is expected to continue as it is difficult to reach the two-thirds threshold in Congress required to override a presidential veto.
