從自己的立場來看,川普的競選氣場確比較積極一些,主要思路還是在解決問題,而且是比較實際的措施。但也擔心川普這種競選策略尤其是關於covid病毒的定論,讓海外華人的處境比較尷尬。不過,從他的2nd term agenda 來看,重點應該是恢複美國經濟。
以下是9月22日在Pennsylvania Moon Township 拉票演講的部分原話:
“In a second term. I will provide school choice to every parent in America. A vote for Republicans is a vote for Safe Communities, great jobs and a limitless future for all Americans. All Americans, race, color creed, all in that, so in conclusion, over the next four years we will make America into the manufacturing superpower of the world and we will end our reliance on China once and for all.
We will make our medical supplies right here in the United States right here in Pennsylvania. We will hire more police, increase penalties for assaults on law enforcement and we will ban deadly sanctuary cities, we ban, we will defend the dignity of work and the sanctity of life. Thank you. We will uphold religious liberty, free speech and the right to keep and bear arms.
We will strike down terrorists who threaten our citizens and we will keep America out of endless ridiculous, stupid foreign wars. We lose our youth to countries that you'd never even heard of right, never even heard of them. We will maintain America's unrivaled military might and we will ensure peace through strength.
另外,昨天各大主媒發表標題為“ Trump won't commit to peaceful transfer of power if he loses the election"的文章。我目前沒有查到任何相關采訪視頻。個人覺得,在美國,按照憲法,和平移交政權應該沒有太大懸念。但是,身邊已經很多人開始覺得有不安全了,擔心大選之後如果民主黨敗選後各種riots會繼續上演。
比較客觀。
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. 對很多人來說, 川普是否”能幹“不是看點。 他很多能幹的地方不符合我們的價值觀甚至直接威脅美國人尤其是新移民的前途, 那就是越能幹越糟糕。肯定不選他。等民主黨上台後再敲打民主黨各種不良政策。 反正現在大法官已經偏向保守,不擔心民主黨能搞得多壞, 隻擔心共和黨, 尤其是極右派共和黨走向極端。
問話和回答都是有context的。感覺一般情況下,提問的人(尤其政治敏感問題)記者一般都是非常有用心的,“Win, lose, or draw in this election, will you commit here today for a peaceful transfer of power after the election?" 川普沒有直接回答,而是反複提到擔心mail-in ballots有問題。視頻裏的記者非常執著地要答案,仔細讀這句問話,前提假設有三種--贏,輸或平局,提問是一個closed question. 再想一下,如果記者的預測是第一種和第三種,後麵這個封閉式的問題就不用問了吧。所以,記者應該是提前預測第二種結局,可是選票還沒開始計算呢。可以看出,記者的問題確實是精心考慮過的。
