民意调查显示，随着选举日临近，腐败和医疗费用问题成为大多数选民最关心的议题。福克斯新闻本周发布的一项民调显示，大多数选民将这两个问题列为他们“极度”或“非常”关注的前五大议题之一。一份关于唐纳德·特朗普总统通过制药行业实现自我致富的新报告凸显了共和党人因将自身政党绑定到美国历史上最腐败的政府之一而自陷的独特困境。
Polling suggests that concerns about corruption and healthcare costs are top of mind for most voters as Election Day approaches. A Fox News poll released this week showed large majorities of voters listed both in the top five issues they were “extremely” or “very” concerned about. A new report about President Donald Trump’s self-enrichment by way of the pharmaceutical industry underscores the uniquely awful political predicament Republicans have created for themselves by wedding their party to one of the most corrupt administrations in American history.
在之前的工作中，联合经济委员会的民主党人曾指出，特朗普在石油和天然气行业的股票投资如何从其破坏性的地缘政治议程中获利，包括他与伊朗的致命战争。如今，该委员会发布了一份新报告，详细说明特朗普在制药行业的股票投资如何从去年共和党强行通过的所谓“一揽子大美丽法案”（ridiculously so-called One Big Beautiful Bill Act）的条款中获益。
Democrats on the Joint Economic Committee previously spotlighted the ways that Trump’s stock investments in the oil and gas industries have benefited from his destructive geopolitical agenda, including his deadly war with Iran Now, the committee is out with a new report on the ways Trump’s stock investments in the pharmaceutical industry have benefited from provisions of the (ridiculously) so-called One Big Beautiful Bill Act that Republicans forced through last year.
根据该新报告，随着美国民众面临天价医疗费用，特朗普总统和国会共和党人去年将一项对大制药公司的新馈赠写入法律，使得许多制药公司能够继续向老年人收取癌症治疗和其他药物的高昂价格。该措施 — — 即阻止医疗保险项目就若干高成本药品谈判降价 — — 将使赤字增加约90亿美元。
According to the new report As Americans face sky-high health care costs, President Trump and Congressional Republicans passed into law last year a new giveaway to Big Pharma that enables many pharmaceutical companies to keep charging seniors exorbitant prices for cancer treatments and other medications. This measure — which blocks the Medicare program from negotiating lower prices for several high-cost drugs — will add around $9 billion to the deficit.
该报告援引财务披露表格显示，2025年，“特朗普持有高达3910万美元的股票，这些股票来自与直接从他和国会共和党人设计的‘馈赠’中获益的同一批大型制药公司。”并且，“这些公司报告称，2025年在美国销售的受益于该例外条款的药品至少达540亿美元，较前一年增长13%。”特朗普自重返白宫以来的股票交易次数，已超过国会所有议员的总和。白宫一贯表示，这些交易由特朗普无法影响的第三方处理，否认腐败或利益冲突的指控。
The report cites financial disclosure forms that show that in 2025, “Trump held as much as $39.1 million in stock in the same Big Pharma companies that directly benefited from the giveaway that he and Congressional Republicans devised.”And that “these companies reported at least $54 billion in U.S. sales of drugs that benefitted from the carveout in 2025, a 13 percent increase from the year before.”Trump has made more stock trades since returning to office than everyone in Congress combined The White House has routinely said that these trades are handled by third parties over which Trump has no influence, denying allegations of corruption or conflicts of interest.
但看来，绝大多数美国人并不相信这位自称“极其天才”的总统，已真正将其个人商业交易与从其政策中获益的行业剥离开来：最近的一项美联社-NORC民调发现，60%的成年人认为特朗普要么非法，要么不道德地从总统职位中获利。
But it seems the majority of Americans aren’t convinced that the self-described “freaking genius” president has truly extricated his personal business dealings from industries that benefit from his policies: A recent AP-NORC poll found that 60% of adults think Trump has either illegally or unethically profited from the presidency.
