本報獨家報導披露，國民黨主席鄭麗文一行10日下午並未如訪團所稱出現在白宮，原定與國安會官員的見面也在未告知原因的情況下取消。對此，民進黨立委王定宇表示，鄭麗文此行不僅見不到美方重要政治人物，拜會對象多為地方層級與親中學者，走訪地點也僅限於智庫、校園、植物園及紀念圖書館，整體接待層級與地點皆遠不如台中市長盧秀燕，現在連外交「基本款」都落空。
王定宇今日於臉書發文分析美方取消會晤的3大核心原因。首先，鄭麗文所領導的國民黨，已不再被美國視為可信賴的夥伴，反而被定位成台灣安全、區域穩定與美台關係的破壞者。
其次，攸關台美區域安全合作的8年1.25兆元軍購特別條例，本是台美雙方共同研議的成果，鄭麗文卻與民眾黨主席黃國昌聯手將其誣指為「空白授權」，並指控民進黨政府「貪污」，甚至在台灣政府和美方安排二次機密報告特別預算案內容明細後，還在說「空白授權」，另外毫無證據的指控軍購弊案。
王定宇強調，上述說詞「形同在指涉美方有問題，無疑是對他們的羞辱，更是把台灣國內的政黨政治放在自己的國家安全之上，而這些說法和北京高度雷同，更讓人氣結。事實上，多年來曾經發生重大軍購弊案的，也只有國民黨的執政時期。」
王定宇最後說，第三點，鄭麗文此次訪美的言行完全附和中共論調，形同在幫習近平造勢，正如美國《福斯》新聞對其定調：「鄭麗文是北京的。」
