最高法院法官塞缪尔·阿利托表示，他对唐纳德·特朗普总统及其政府关于法院的一些言论感到不满，这是罕见地表达了与行政部门的分歧。
Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito said he was not happy about some remarks from President Donald Trump and his administration about the court, in a rare expression of disagreement with the executive branch.
“我个人对此并不满意，”阿利托在周二发表的美联社采访中谈到总统的言论时说道。“这个国家的每个人都有权批评我们的所作所为。他们的批评的实质可能相当严厉。如果我们应得的，那也没关系。但修辞则是另一回事。”
“I personally am not pleased with that,” Alito said about the president’s rhetoric in an interview with The Associated Press published Tuesday. “Everybody in this country has the right to criticize what we do. The substance of their criticism can be quite harsh. If we deserve it, then that’s fine. But rhetoric is a different story.”
阿利托接受美联社采访是他在宣传他的第一本书《如此有序：一位原创主义者对宪法、法院和我们国家的看法》的出版时所做的一系列采访中的最新一次。他的言论标志着他首次公开对总统对法院的攻击做出反应。阿利托的几位替补同事公开谈论了他们在日益两极分化的政治环境中面临的威胁和骚扰。
Alito’s interview with the AP is the latest in a series of them he has done as he promotes the release of his first book, “So Ordered: An Originalist’s View of The Constitution, The Court, and Our Country.”His comments mark the first time he has reacted publicly to the president’s attacks on the court. Several of Alito’s colleagues on the bench have spoken openly about the threats and harassment they have faced in an increasingly polarized political environment.
对法官们最激烈的批评来自特朗普。在最近的一次《时代》采访中，总统特别提到了他提名的三名法官--尼尔·戈萨奇、布雷特·卡瓦诺和艾米·科尼·巴雷特--并表示他们对他不够忠诚，因为他们的裁决反对了他的一些关键政策。这与社交媒体上一篇冗长的帖子相呼应，他在帖子中称他们为“原始自我的躯壳”，并预测法院“将因做出我国历史上一些最具破坏性、最伤人和最具破坏性的决定而受到谴责”，尽管法院已经签署了许多有利于特朗普的裁决。
Some of the fiercest criticism of the justices has come from Trump. In a recent Time interview the president singled out the three justices he nominated — Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett — and suggested they were not sufficiently loyal to him because they ruled against some of his key policies. That echoed a lengthy social media post in which he called them “a shell of their original selves” and predicted that the court “will go down as having rendered some of the most destructive, hurtful, and damaging decisions in our Country’s history,” even though it has signed off on any number of rulings in Trump’s favor.
特朗普告诉《时代》杂志：“我给了他们一生难忘的职位，他们却经常投票反对我。”
“I gave them the position of a lifetime, and they vote against me often,” Trump told Time.
相比之下，特朗普经常赞扬阿利托和克拉伦斯·托马斯大法官，他们的选票确实有利于他的政府总统，但阿利托否认了有关他的决定与特朗普的MAGA运动一致的贬低。
In contrast, Trump has frequently praised Alito and Justice Clarence Thomas, whose votes are reliably in favor of the president his administration But Alito rejected accusastions that his decisions are aligned with Trump’s MAGA movement.
阿利托告诉美联社：“这是无礼的。”“老实说，我试图根据是非曲直来决定每一个案件，根据是非曲直来决定每一个申请。无论总统是唐纳德·特朗普、乔·拜登、巴拉克·奥巴马还是其他任何人，情况都是如此。”阿利托现年76岁，是最高法院第二年长的法官，仅次于78岁的托马斯。尽管有猜测，但两人都没有表示打算很快辞职。事实上，阿利托上周告诉他，他将在六月结束的下一个任期内继续留在法院。阿利托大法官表示，他对特朗普关于最高法院的言论“不满意”
“It’s offensive,” Alito told the AP. “I honestly try to decide every single case on the merits, every single application on the merit. And that’s true whether the president is Donald Trump or Joe Biden or Barack Obama or anybody else.”At 76, Alito is the second-oldest justice on the Supreme Court, after Thomas, who is 78. Neither has indicated that they intend to step down soon, despite speculation. Alito, in fact, told last week that he will stay on the court through the upcoming term, which ends in June.
