據英國媒體報導,美國當地時間1月19日,美國總統唐納·川普發表告別演講。在演講中,他不斷吹噓自己的成就,並為美國下一屆政府祈禱,但拒絕提及美國當選總統喬·拜登(Joe Biden)。
President Donald Trump in a prerecorded farewell address touted his record on the economy and foreign policy, while glossing over the Capitol riot that consumed the final weeks of his presidency.
美國總統川普在事先錄製的告別演講中吹噓了他在經濟和外交政策方面的政績,同時掩飾了在他總統任期最後幾周發生的國會騷亂。
He also failed to mention his successor, Joe Biden, by name, who will be inaugurated as the nation's 46th president Wednesday.
他也沒有提到他的繼任者拜登的名字。拜登周三將就任美國第46任總統。
Trump's nearly 20-minute speech, which was taped Monday, framed his departure from the White House as the natural conclusion of a job well done, rather than as the consequence of his election loss to Biden.
川普在周一錄製的近20分鐘的演講中稱,他離開白宮是工作出色的自然結果,而不是他在選舉中輸給拜登的結果。
"We did what we came here to do — and so much more," Trump said in the address.
川普在講話中說:「我們做了我們來這裡要做的事,而且做了更多。」
Trump has previously acknowledged that a new administration will take charge on Wednesday, but he has not formally conceded to Biden.
川普此前已經承認新一屆政府將於周三上臺,但他還沒有正式向拜登讓步。
Unlike past presidents' farewell speeches, Trump's address makes no specific mention of his successor.
與以往總統的告別演講不同,川普的演講沒有特別提到他的繼任者。
The president's speech also made just one reference to the Jan 6 invasion of the Capitol by a swarm of his supporters — an event that left five dead and spurred the House to impeach him for a second time.
總統的演講也僅一次提到了1月6日他的一大群支持者入侵國會大廈的事件——那次事件導致5人死亡,並促使眾議院第二次彈劾他。
Trump in the video praised his administration's efforts to combat the coronavirus pandemic, saying the US "outperformed other countries economically because of our incredible economy and the economy that we built.
川普在視頻中讚揚了他的政府在抗擊新冠病毒大流行方面所做的努力,稱美國「在經濟上優於其他國家,這是由於我們不可思議的經濟能力和我們建設經濟的努力。
Without the foundations and footings, it wouldn't have worked out this way."
如果沒有這些基礎,就不會有這樣的結果。」
值得注意的是,川普在演講中多次向新一屆政府表達了善意的祝福和祈禱。但他似乎也並不想就此"殺青"。
在演講最後他說道:「周三(20日)中午,我會將權力移交給新一屆政府。在此之際,我想讓你們知道,我們發起的(讓美國再次偉大)運動才剛剛開始。 」
到目前為止,川普依舊遵照自己特立獨行的做事方式,沒有依照慣例與下一任新總統拜登通電話,也從未邀請拜登一家到白宮共進晚餐。
