福克斯新闻主持人肖恩·汉尼蒂承认，美国与伊朗的战争是推动共和党在本周中期选举中惨败的主要因素。
Fox News host Sean Hannity conceded the U.S. war with Iran was a major factor driving the GOP’s sweeping losses in this week’s midterm elections.
当福克斯主播布雷特·拜尔询问，如果伊朗战争不是本轮选举中选民最关心的议题，结果会不会不同时，汉尼蒂表示：“我认为100%，我认为毫无疑问。”
“I think 100 percent, I don’t think there’s any doubt about it,” Hannity said when asked by Fox anchor Bret Baier if the Iran war had not been top of mind for voters in this cycle would the results be different.
这位支持特朗普的主持人坚持认为，虽然现任政府治下“经济基本面”稳固，“但如果民众感受不到，那就是个问题。”
The Trump-supporting host maintained that while “fundamentals of the economy” are solid under the current administration, “if people don’t feel it, it is a problem.”
“任何总统任期的前两年都是未完成的成绩单，”他继续说道。“人们希望边境安全，但他们不喜欢民主党大肆炒作的许多[移民与海关执法局行动]视频。”汉尼蒂补充说，对伊朗战争及其对经济影响的不满“是目前更占主导的情绪力量。”
“The two years of any presidency is an incomplete grade,” he continued. “People want to border secure but they didn’t like a lot of the videos [of ICE operations] that were being hyped up by Democrats.”Displeasure with the war with Iran and its impact on the economy “is the more dominant feeling force now,” Hannity added.
作为福克斯资历最深的主持人之一，汉尼蒂多年来一直公开支持总统，并在周一为总统进行了独家专访，距周二选举仅24小时。
One of Fox’s longest serving hosts, Hannity has been vocally supportive of the president for years and hosted him for an exclusive interview on Monday, 24 hours before Tuesday’s elections.
