进步派众议员和候选人正在远离他们所描述的“表演性”弹劾特朗普总统的努力，采取鲜明的转向。
Progressive House members and candidates are taking a stark turn away from what they describe as "performative" efforts to impeach President Trump
为何重要：这是相较于特朗普第一任期的语气上的剧烈转变，当时进步派人士是支持弹劾的最响亮的声音之一。
Why it matters: This is a drastic shift in tone from Trump's first term, when progressives were some of the loudest voices in favor of impeachment.
- 2019年，众议员拉希达·特莱布（民主党-密歇根州）曾著名地谈到特朗普说：“我们要弹劾这个混蛋，”共和党人经常将这句话翻出来，以此驳斥针对总统的弹劾努力是预谋的。
• Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) famously said of Trump in 2019, "We're gonna impeach the motherfucker," a line Republicans have routinely dredged up to dismiss impeachment efforts against the president as premeditated.
- 周四，她在给Axios的一份声明中说：“无论十一月发生什么，未来两年我们仍将面对一个需要追究责任的特朗普政府。”
• On Thursday, she told Axios in a statement: "No matter what happens in November, we'll still have a Trump administration for the next two years to hold accountable."
推动新闻：可能当选的民主党众议员达里亚莉扎·阿维拉·切瓦利埃（纽约州）和梅拉特·基罗斯（科罗拉多州）在最近一次播客采访中被问及弹劾特朗普时，也表达了类似的语气。
Driving the news: Likely incoming Democratic House members Darializa Avila Chevalier of New York and Melat Kiros of Colorado struck a similar tone in a recent podcast interview when asked about impeaching Trump.
- “我支持追究责任，但……这似乎是特朗普本人想要的东西，”阿维拉·切瓦利埃说。
• "I support accountability, but ... that is something that Trump himself seems to want," Avila Chevalier said.
- “我的问题是：这实际上会对特朗普政府产生有意义的追究责任吗？”
• "My question is: Is that actually going to be meaningful accountability for the Trump administration?"
- 基罗斯说：“追究责任必须真正带来一些实质性的变化。”
• Said Kiros: "The accountability has to actually lead to some material changes." What we're hearing:
我们听到的：众议员迪莉亚·拉米雷斯（民主党-伊利诺伊州）一直主张第一天就弹劾，她在接受Axios采访时说：“弹劾不能仅仅是一种政治信息传递策略。”•“我认为梅拉特和达里亚莉扎想表达的是，人们想看到正义和真正的追究责任。……我们不能只告诉人们一些别人可能会觉得是空话的东西，”拉米雷斯说。
Rep. Delia Ramirez (D-Ill.), who has advocated a day-one impeachment, told Axios in an interview, "Impeachment can't just be a political messaging strategy." • "I think what Melat and Darializa are getting to is that people want to see justice and real accountability. ... We can't just tell people things that some would feel like is fluff," Ramirez said.
- “我认为美国人已经厌倦了表演，”另一位可能当选的来自新泽西州的民主党众议员亚当·哈马维说。他告诉Axios，任何弹劾程序都需要是“一个有实质内容的真实过程，而不是站上去只是做做样子。”
• "I think the American people are tired of theater," said Adam Hamawy, another likely Democratic House member from New Jersey. He told Axios any impeachment proceedings need to be "a real process with substance, rather than just getting up there and just making a show of it." **Rep.
众议员阿纳莉拉·梅希亚（民主党-新泽西州）那些民主党人表示：“应该全面调查这些部门的负责人以及所有那些行为不端的人”，但她本人“更倾向于关注那些真正有影响力的问题，而不是那些只是做做样子的举动”。她补充说：“虽然做做样子的举动可能看起来不错，但最终不会带来美国人民所期望的结果。”
Analilia Mejia (D-N.J.)** said Democrats "should investigate the heads of these departments and bad actors across the board," but she is "less inclined to the performative and more inclined to identify what's impactful." • "The performative may feel nice, but in the end will not bear the kind of fruit that the American people deserve," she added.
特莱布（Tlaib）指出，众议院监督委员会“必须继续要求这个腐败的政府为其罪行以及滥用纳税人资金的行为负责，并追究其后果——这些行为损害了我们的邻国、公共健康、环境、安全以及民主制度”。
• Tlaib said the House Oversight Committee "must continue pressing for real accountability and consequences for this corrupt administration's crimes and abuses of taxpayers' dollars against our neighbors, public health, environment, safety and democracy."
总体情况：自特朗普2025年重新执政以来，民主党人与弹劾问题之间的关系一直非常复杂：
The big picture: Democrats have had a tortured relationship with impeachment since Trump returned to office in 2025.
- 在特朗普的第一任期内，民主党曾两次试图弹劾他，但两次都被参议院驳回；随后特朗普在2024年成功连任。即便是最坚决反对特朗普的民主党人，去年听到再次提起弹劾的话题时也感到非常反感。
• After impeaching the president twice in his first term only to see him acquitted both times by the Senate and then reelected in 2024, even the most ardently anti-Trump Democrats came into last year recoiling at the mere mention of another impeachment.
- 然而，民主党基层选民对特朗普政府的破坏性行为感到愤怒，他们要求民主党利用一切可用手段进行反击。
• But they were buffeted by a grassroots base furious about the second Trump administration's precedent-shattering moves and demanding Democrats use every tool at their disposal to fight back. By the numbers:
数据说明： 2025年6月，当德克萨斯州民主党众议员阿尔·格林（Al Green）试图推动对特朗普的弹劾投票时，有128名民主党众议员与共和党人一起投票阻止了这一进程；到了12月，只有23名民主党人仍然反对弹劾。上个月格林再次尝试时，有18名民主党人反对弹劾，而147名民主党人支持投票进行弹劾；另有46名民主党人（包括党内领袖）选择弃权。
When Rep. Al Green (D-Texas) tried to force a vote on impeaching Trump in June 2025, 128 of his fellow House Democrats voted with Republicans to block it. • By December, only 23 Democrats voted to block it. • When Green did it a third time last month, 18 Democrats voted to block it, while 147 voted with him to force the vote and 46, including party leaders, voted "present." Yes, but:
不过……格林以及密歇根州民主党众议员什里·塔纳达尔（Shri Thanedar）——这两位同样曾积极主张在特朗普第二任期内弹劾他的议员——今年都未能成功连任。正如Axios此前报道的那样，这是因为民主党基层选民已经不再支持那些反对特朗普的“抵抗运动”，而是转向了那些更倾向于反对现有体制、持有左翼思想的候选人。
Green and Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-Mich.), who similarly championed impeaching Trump in his second term, have both lost their reelection bids this year. • Their losses came as the party base has turned away from anti-Trump #resistance crusaders in favor of more broadly anti-establishment, left-wing ideologues, as Axios previously reported.
- 这些新晋进步派表达的观点，更接近民主党领袖、众议院少数党领袖哈基姆·杰弗里斯（民主党-纽约州）和司法委员会首席议员杰米·拉斯金（民主党-马里兰州）的立场：弹劾不应是既定事实。
• These incoming progressives are expressing a view more in line with Democratic leaders like House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) and Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin (D-Md.): That impeachment shouldn't be a fait accompli.
接下来的情况：虽然特朗普目前可能不在考虑范围内，但他的内阁成员肯定在。
What's next: While Trump may be off the board for now, his Cabinet certainly isn't.
- 众议院可能很快就会就针对国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯的弹劾决议进行表决，该决议由众议员托马斯·马西（共和党-肯塔基州）在议员们休会离开前夕提出。
• The House could soon vote on an impeachment resolution against Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, triggered by Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) just before lawmakers left for October recess.
- “我认为，追究皮特·赫格塞斯的责任，并调查我们的治理机构在哪些方面未能达到标准、法律……这都是追究政府问责的一部分，”梅希亚说。
• "I do think that holding Pete Hegseth [accountable] and looking into the ways in which our governing bodies have failed to meet the standards, the laws ... is all part of holding this government accountable," said Mejia.
