前奥巴马助手乔恩·洛维特敦促密歇根州犹太选民投票支持阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德，称选民有“道德义务”支持密歇根州的民主党参议院候选人。
Former Obama aide Jon Lovett urged Jewish Michiganders to vote for Abdul El-Sayed, saying voters have a "moral obligation" to support the Democratic U.S. Senate nominee in Michigan.
在周二播出的《拯救美国播客》节目中，该联合主持人谴责了总统唐纳德·特朗普在最近一次共和党候选人迈克·罗杰斯的集会上关于埃尔赛义德的言论。
On Tuesday's episode of the "Pod Save America" podcast, the co-host condemned President Donald Trump for his rhetoric about El-Sayed at a recent rally for GOP candidate Mike Rogers.
洛维特敦促密歇根州的犹太选民拒绝特朗普的言论，认为左翼的反犹主义与来自右翼的“仇恨”相比微不足道，而这种仇恨最终会让美国对犹太人来说更不安全。
Lovett urged Jewish voters in Michigan to reject Trump's rhetoric, arguing that antisemitism on the left paled in comparison to the "hatred" coming from the right, which he said would eventually make America less safe for Jewish people.
“特朗普在那里说，任何犹太人都会为投票给阿卜杜勒感到羞耻，密歇根州的犹太人之间存在是否应该投票给阿卜杜勒的争论。我只想非常清楚地说，密歇根州的犹太人有道德义务支持阿卜杜勒，”他说。“他们应该这样做，以保护自己免受美国反犹主义和日益高涨的仇恨的侵害。”
"So Donald Trump says there that any Jew would be ashamed to vote for Abdul, and there's a debate among Jews in Michigan about whether to vote for Abdul. I just want to be very clear, Jews in Michigan have a moral obligation to support Abdul," he said. "They should do it to protect themselves from antisemitism and rising hatred in America."
“如果这听起来让你感到困惑，你可以想象两个未来，”他继续说道。“一个是民主党内部关于美国与以色列关系、对以色列的军事援助以及左翼反犹主义的争论，这些反犹主义是真实存在的。这是一场重大而重要的辩论，我们可以进行这场辩论以寻找共识点、寻找共识。可以有劝说、争论和不快，但可以有民主。”洛维特说，另一个未来对犹太人来说将是危险的。
"And if that sounds confusing to you at all, you should imagine two futures," he continued. "One in which there is a debate inside the Democratic Party about America's relationship to Israel, military aid for Israel, and antisemitism on the left, which is real. That is a big and important debate we could have to try to find places of agreement, places of consensus. There can be persuasion and argument and hard feelings, but there can be democracy." The other future, Lovett said, would be dangerous for Jewish people.
“另一方面，右翼存在这样一种政治，它关乎支配地位、仇恨以及把他人他者化。它从穆斯林开始，”他说。“他对跨性别者这样做。他对移民这样做。他对海地人这样做，说他们吃狗吃猫。如果你以为这种事不会最终落到犹太人头上，那你简直是疯了。”
"On the other, you have this kind of politics on the right where it is about dominance and hatreds and othering of people. It starts with Muslims," he said. "He does it for trans people. He does it for immigrants. He does it for Haitians, eating the dogs and the cats. If you think that that doesn't end with Jews, you are out of your f---ing minds."
“一个奖励这种政治的国家，就是一个犹太人更不安全的国家。任何让自己对阿卜杜勒的担忧——那些合理的担忧——遮蔽了这一更根本要点的人，都没有看清大局，”洛维特继续说道。“对美国的犹太人来说，我们的安全建立在一个理念之上：社会中可以有争论和分歧，但我们尊重这些差异。特朗普不相信这一点。我们需要一个民主党参议院来制衡唐纳德·特朗普。也许阿卜杜勒不合你的口味。也许阿卜杜勒不是——不会是一个可靠的反以色列票。没关系，我们能应付。但我们无法应付的是继续滑向这个充满仇恨的威权右翼。那对我们来说将是危险的。”
"A country where this kind of politics is rewarded is a country where Jews are less safe. And anyone who has allowed their own concerns and legitimate concerns about Abdul to cloud that ultimate larger point is missing the big picture here," Lovett continued. "For Jews in America, our safety is based around the idea that there's a society in which we can have arguments and disagreements, but we respect those differences. Trump does not believe in that. And we need to have a check on Donald Trump in a Democratic Senate. And maybe Abdul is not your cup of tea. Maybe Abdul is is not — is going to be a reliable vote against Israel. Fine, we can handle that.
曼哈顿研究所副总裁杰西·阿姆是一位民意调查专家，也是密歇根州人，他就洛维特的言论致信福克斯新闻数字频道。
But we cannot handle a continued slide to this hateful authoritarian right. It will be dangerous for us." Manhattan Institute Vice President Jesse Arm, a pollster and Michigan native, wrote to Fox News Digital about Lovett's comments.
“乔恩·洛维特是个彻头彻尾的党派打手，他支持缅因州一个胸口纹着字面意义上纳粹标志的候选人，就因为那人名字旁边有个D。他根本没资格就道德义务对犹太人说教，”他说，似乎指的是前缅因州民主党参议员候选人格雷厄姆·普拉特纳，后者在7月因一项性侵指控而暂停竞选，他否认了这一指控。
"Jon Lovett is a bitterly partisan hack who backed a candidate in Maine with a literal Nazi symbol inked on his chest because he had a D next to his name. He’s in no position to lecture Jews about their moral obligations," he said, appearing to refer to former Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner, who suspended his campaign in July following a sexual assault allegation, which he denied.
阿姆接着批评了埃尔-赛义德对3月底特律郊区犹太教堂“以色列圣殿”遭袭事件的回应，其中部分说道：“受过伤的人，会伤害别人。”他写道：“他的论点是，犹太人应该投票给那个为一起针对他们孩子所在当地犹太教堂学前班的恐怖袭击找理由的人，因为共和党人可能有一天会翻脸对付他们——这种说法既不道德又愚蠢。强硬左派已经处于他想象中右派有朝一日会陷入的那种可耻、偏执的境地。”
Arm went on to criticize El-Sayed's response to the March attack on Temple Israel, a synagogue in suburban Detroit, saying in part, "hurt people, hurt people." "His argument that Jews should vote for the guy who rationalized a terrorist attack targeting their children in a local synagogue preschool because Republicans might turn on them someday is both immoral and idiotic. The hard left is already in the disgraceful, bigoted place he imagines the right someday going," he wrote.
福克斯新闻数字频道联系了罗杰斯和埃尔-赛义德的竞选团队以及共和党全国委员会，均未立即收到回复。
Fox News Digital reached out to Rogers and El-Sayed's campaigns as well as the RNC and did not receive immediate replies.
