总统的自我评价出炉之际,选民对他在经济和生活成本方面的评价却低得多。
The president's self-assessment comes as voters give him far lower marks on the economy and cost of living.
唐纳德·特朗普总统周四给自己的第二任期打了“A+”的高分,尽管他的支持率接近历史低点,且因选民对其经济政策不满,其政党似乎即将失去众议院控制权,甚至可能失去参议院控制权。
President Donald Trump on Thursday graded his second term an “A+,” even as his favorability nears record lows and his party appears poised to lose the House and possibly the Senate over dissatisfaction with his handling of the economy.
“我给我们在政府、经济、各方面都打A+,”特朗普在白宫启程前往德克萨斯州彼得比尔特汽车公司考察其政府成果前说道。
“I give us an A+ on the government, on economics, on everything,” Trump said at the White House before leaving for a trip to Texas to tout his administration at Peterbilt Motors Co.
特朗普本周两次似乎指责自己的团队未能传达他上任近两年来取得的所有积极成果。周四,他还补充说“媒体对待我们不公平。”但随着顽固持续的通胀、汽油价格超过每加仑4.40美元、抵押贷款利率超过7%,即使是在深红州的共和党人也面临可能将他们赶下台的逆风。
Trump has twice this week appeared to blame his own team for failing to communicate all the positives he’s achieved since taking office nearly two years ago. On Thursday, he added that “the press isn’t treating us fairly.”But with stubbornly persistent inflation, gas above $4.40 a gallon and mortgage rates above 7%, even Republicans in ruby-red states are facing headwinds that could blow them from office.
