前特朗普总统高级经济顾问史蒂夫·摩尔周四表示，虽然美国经济是“世界上最强劲的”，但共和党人承认民众的不满将是恰当之举。
Steve Moore, a former senior economic adviser to President Trump, said Thursday that while the U.S. economy is “the strongest in the world,” it would be appropriate for Republicans to acknowledge the grievances of the people.
“我觉得也许可以借用比尔·克林顿的一句话，‘我感同身受’将是恰当的表态，”摩尔在接受NewsNation节目《On Balance with Leland Vittert》采访时说。
“I think maybe to borrow a line from Bill Clinton, I feel your pain would be an appropriate thing to say,” Moore said during an appearance on NewsNation’s On Balance with Leland Vittert.
“但我确实认为他们应该谈论经济中的积极因素。这并非特朗普所说的A++级经济，而是B+级经济，”摩尔继续说道。“这是一个强劲的经济，世界上最强劲的经济。”经济担忧一直是中期选举的主要因素，选举将在不到两周内尘埃落定。共和党面临失去众参两院多数党地位的重大危险，主要原因是民众对经济的不满。
“But I do think that they should be talking about the positive things in the economy. This is not an A plus plus economy like Trump says, but it’s a B plus economy,” Moore continued. “It’s a strong economy, the strongest in the world.”Economic concerns have beenn a major factor in the midterm elections, which will be settled in less than two weeks. Republicans are in significant danger of losing both the House and Senate majorities, largely because of unrest over the economy.
通胀上月有所上升，价格上行压力既来自特朗普的贸易战，也来自与伊朗的实际战争，后者导致汽油价格大幅上涨。
Inflation rose last month, and upward pressure on prices has come from both Trump’s trade wars and the actual war with Iran, which led to significantly higher gas prices.
根据消费者价格指数（CPI），上月通胀按年率计算升至3.7%。8月该数字为3.4%。涨幅主要归因于能源价格；9月食品价格持平，但较12个月前上涨2.5%。
Inflation rose last month to 3.7 percent on an annual basis, according to the consumer price index (CPI). In August, the number stood at 3.4. The hike was largely attributed to energy prices; food prices held steady in September but rose 2.5 percent from 12 months prior.
上月，NBC新闻的一项民调显示，55%的受访者认为经济状况因特朗普的政策而恶化。约26%的人持相反看法，18%的人认为经济状况并未真正受政策影响。
Last month, in a poll by NBC news, 55 percent respondents said that economic conditions have been worsened by Trump’s policies. About 26 percent said the opposite and 18 percent said the conditions have not really been affected by the policies.
在周四的采访中，摩尔强调，“经济确实相当强劲”，并补充说贫困率处于美国历史最低水平，犯罪率下降，中位数收入上升。
During his Thursday interview, Moore emphasized, “the economy really is pretty strong,” adding that the poverty rates are lowest in the history of the U.S., crime rate has declined and median incomes are rising.
“显然我们拥有世界上最好的经济。其他每个国家都羡慕我们的经济，”他说。
“Clearly we have the best economy in the world. Every other country is envious of our economy,” he said.
