However, newly elected DPP chair Tsai Ing-wen has come to her post after a career in the civil service, and is not so familiar with the workings of street protests. There was a serious breakdown in the chain of command at the demonstrations: leaders and party workers at the front of the protest lines declared the demonstration over and departed the site, leaving behind a leaderless crowd that erupted into violence.
但官僚體系出身、甫當選民進黨主席不久的蔡英文，對街頭運動的抗爭路線並不熟悉，出現了指揮失據的嚴重失誤，導致當前方指揮者及黨工幹部已宣告遊行解散後，後方的民眾卻因群龍無首而出現脫序的暴力行為。
