阿卜杜勒·埃尔-赛义德对特朗普总统在选举日宣布美国将逐步削减数十亿美元对以色列援助的举动，给予了尖锐支持。
Abdul El-Sayed offered barbed support for President Trump's Election Day announcement that the U.S. would phase out billions of dollars in aid to Israel.
“即使是坏钟也能每天准时两次，”密歇根州民主党参议院候选人会见安娜堡投票站的选民后对记者说。他拒绝回答自己是否认为特朗普的举动是真正的政策转变，还是在周二中期选举时机巧合下的政治手段。
“Even a broken clock can be right twice a day,” the Michigan Democratic Senate candidate told reporters after meeting with voters at a polling site in Ann Arbor. He declined to answer if he believed Trump's move was a genuine shift in policy or a political maneuver given the timing of the announcement coinciding with Tuesday’s midterm elections.
当天早些时候，特朗普特别提到了埃尔-赛义德，并表示他和其他候选人已将结束美国对以色列援助作为竞选的关键议题。“左翼利用40亿美元的付款……作为不公平的信号，”特朗普说。“这几乎是一个太容易的目标。”
Earlier in the day, Trump specifically mentioned El-Sayed and how he and other candidates have made ending U.S. aid to Israel a key issue in their campaigns. “The left uses the $4 billion payment…as a signal of unfairness,” Trump said. “It’s almost too easy a target.”
