While he still considered the Kuomintang a "rotten party", Chen endorsed the KMT candidate Lien Chan in the 2000 ROC presidential election, believing that Lien was unlike the rest of the Kuomintang.[1]
In January 2001, Chen re-joined the Kuomintang, because he thought both the party and Taiwan needed him.[2]
