特朗普总统表示，股市周四“遭遇了历史上最糟糕的一天之一”，此前一天，因民主党在中期选举中大获全胜，股市曾大幅飙升。
President Trump said the stock market “suffered one of the Worst Days in History” on Thursday, a day after it surged following Democrats’ sweeping victories in the midterm elections.
周三开盘后，道琼斯工业平均指数上涨了1104点。但周四开盘后，该指数下跌了2100多点，收盘时较前一日下跌1833点。
The Dow Jones Industrial Average went up by 1,104 points on Wednesday after the opening bell. But on Thursday, it dropped by more than 2,100 points from the opening bell and closed down by 1,833 points relative to the day before.
“股市今天崩盘，因为‘愚民党’周二大胜——真遗憾，你们只能怪自己！”特朗普周四深夜在“真相社交”平台发文写道。
“The Stock Market crashed today because the Dumocrats had a big Tuesday — So sad to see, you only have yourselves to blame!”Trump wrote on Truth Social late Thursday.
在随后的一条帖子中，总统称，股市“根据选举结果，遭遇了历史上最糟糕的一天之一”。“看著真让人难过！我们花了这么大力气才达到前所未有的水平，结果却变成了这样，”他接着说。“记住，不是共和党，是‘愚民党’。不过别怕，我们很快会以某种方式变得比以往更大、更强。”纳斯达克综合指数和标准普尔500指数周三分别上涨500多点和120点，周四则分别暴跌约1422点和335点。
In a subsequent post, the president said the stock market “suffered one of the Worst Days in History based on the results of the Election.”“Such a sad thing to watch! It took so much work to get us to a level that no one has ever seen before, and then this,” he continued. “Remember, it wasn’t Republicans, it was Dumocrats. Do not fear, however, we will soon, one way or the other, be BIGGER AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE.”The Nasdaq composite and S&P 500, up by more than 500 and 120 points on Wednesday, also tanked by roughly 1,422 points and 335 points on Thursday.
周二，民主党赢得了下一届众议院和参议院的控制权，在得克萨斯、爱荷华、俄亥俄、缅因、密歇根和堪萨斯等关键摇摆州取得历史性胜利。
On Tuesday, Democrats took control of the House and the Senate for the next term, securing historic wins in battleground states like Texas, Iowa, Ohio, Maine, Michigan and Kansas.
许多民主党候选人在竞选途中主打解决生活成本问题。这一制胜策略在中期选举结果出炉后得到了一些共和党人的认可，如得克萨斯州参议员特德·克鲁兹（共和党）承认，可负担性是选民最关心的问题。
Many Democratic candidates campaigned on addressing cost-of-living concerns while on the trail. The winning strategy was highlighted by some Republicans post the midterm results, like Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R), who acknowledged that affordability was a top issue for voters.
副总统万斯在社交平台X上发文，也指出正在进行的伊朗战争是共和党失利的主要原因，但也提到生活成本是一个关键因素。尽管一些民主党人反驳了他的说法，辩称他支持特朗普在中东的军事行动。
Vice President Vance, in a post on social platform X, also pointed to the ongoing Iran war as the main issue behind the GOP losses, but also mentioned cost of living as a key factor. Though some Democrats pushed back on his rhetoric, arguing he supported Trump’s operation in the Middle East.
最近的民调显示，物价上涨和生活成本担忧是大多数选民在选举日前最关心的问题。最近的一项路透社/益普索民调发现，48%的选民将该问题列为决定投票对象时最重要的因素。
Recent polls have shown that rising prices and cost-of-living concerns were at the top of most voters’ minds heading into Election Day. A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll found 48 percent of voters ranked the issue as the most important factor when deciding who to vote for.
另一项上个月进行的盖洛普调查发现，近一半受访者在投票前将经济列为极其重要的因素。
A separate Gallup survey, conducted last month, found nearly half of the respondents marked the economy as an extremely important factor before casting their ballots.
特朗普周五大力宣传人工智能——他一直试图将其重新包装为“超级智能”——及其潜在的经济影响。
Trump on Friday touted artificial intelligence — which he has sought to rebrand as “superintelligence” — and its potential economic impact.
“作为总统，我100%支持超级智能（SI），并将与美国许多希望通过拥有它们而变得富有的州合作，”他在Truth Social上写道，这很可能是指扩大人工智能数据中心。
“As President, I am 100% in favor of Super Intelligence (SI), and will work with the many States in the U.S. that want to become RICH by having them,” he wrote on Truth Social, likely referring to expanding AI data centers.
他补充道：“它们是黄金，只有愚蠢的领导层才会对它们带来的财富说‘不’！”
He added, “They are GOLD, and only foolish leadership will say ‘NO’ to the riches they bring!”
