Topics
一位在特朗普集会上发言的喜剧演员:将波多黎各比作漂浮在海上的垃圾岛,是对波多黎各人民的侮辱。这番言论反映了特朗普及其支持者对波多黎各人民的蔑视和仇恨,也暴露出他们对政治正确性的漠视。 CNN主播:特朗普集会上对波多黎各的侮辱性言论可能会疏远关键选民群体,因为波多黎各人在纽约和宾夕法尼亚州等摇摆州拥有大量选票。特朗普竞选团队迅速否认了该言论,这在以往是不常见的。 一位波多黎各裔人士:特朗普支持者对波多黎各的侮辱性言论令人不安,并可能影响摇摆州的波多黎各裔选民的投票意愿。这番言论不仅是对波多黎各人民的冒犯,更是对所有少数族裔的歧视。 政治评论员Matt Gorman:喜剧演员和政治家在动机方面存在差异,喜剧演员追求笑声,政治家追求选票,这导致两者结合时容易出现问题。这番言论也暴露了特朗普竞选团队在政治策略上的失误,以及他们对选民情绪的误判。 政治评论员David Frum:特朗普集会的核心信息是愤怒、蔑视和仇恨,而对波多黎各的侮辱性言论只是其中一部分,并非意外。特朗普的经济和移民政策存在缺陷,其竞选的核心信息是愤怒、蔑视和仇恨。 政治评论员Megan Hayes:美国社会存在着两种不同的现实,人们从不同的新闻来源获取信息,并生活在各自的现实中,这导致了观点的分歧。许多民主党人错误地认为特朗普的支持者与特朗普的观点和态度一致,这并非事实。部分共和党选民支持特朗普,是因为他们认同共和党的保守价值观和经济政策。民主党需要争取那些认同共和党价值观但反对特朗普言行的选民。 Dan Goldman: 特朗普集会上的所有发言都是经过他本人和竞选团队审核的。特朗普集会上的言论体现了特朗普及其支持者的仇恨和偏见。人们投票的原因多种多样,特朗普和哈里斯代表着不同的美国愿景。特朗普及其支持者利用恐惧、分裂和仇恨来争取选民。对波多黎各的侮辱性言论会影响总统选举和纽约州的众议院选举。特朗普在纽约举行集会,可能与众议院多数席位有关。特朗普可能计划在选举失败后,利用众议院推翻选举结果。
