在美国中期选举临近之际，唐纳德·特朗普正抛弃乌克兰的民主，绝望地试图摆脱加剧通胀的责任，他指责基辅导致油价高企，同时明确采取行动支持俄罗斯。然而，巴西和塞尔维亚上周末举行的戏剧性选举表明，选民能够看穿这种诡计。
In advance of the midterms, Trump is blaming Kyiv for high gas prices while making clear moves to support Russia As the US midterms approach, Donald Trump is abandoning Ukraine’s democracy in a desperate effort to deny responsibility for worsening inflation. Yet this past weekend’s dramatic elections in Brazil and Serbia show that voters can see through such subterfuge.
没有什么比一个政党对普通民众困境的腐败漠视更能激发选民投票热情。如果美国选民步其巴西和塞尔维亚同行的后尘，民主党大获全胜的可能性很大。
There is nothing like a political party’s corrupt indifference to the plight of ordinary people to galvanize voter turnout. If US voters follow in the footsteps of their Brazilian and Serbian counterparts, a Democratic landslide is likely.
