美国总统唐纳德·特朗普表示，他可能不会在2028年总统大选中背书接班人，暗示置身事外或许是更好的选择。
Trump blames Republicans’ midterm election losses partly on ‘bad messaging’ while insisting that public support for his handling of the war with Iran remains ‘phenomenal,’ despite several polls suggesting otherwise US President Donald Trump said he might refrain from endorsing a candidate to succeed him in the 2028 presidential election, suggesting that staying out of the race could be the better option.
在接受哥伦比亚广播公司（CBS）《60分钟》节目采访时，特朗普被问及是否会背书潜在的继任者。
Speaking to CBS’ 60 Minutes, Trump was asked whether he would endorse a potential successor.
“很有可能。但不一定，”他回答道，随后补充道，“也许我最好别插手。”当被问及除了副总统JD·万斯（JD Vance）之外还会考虑谁作为潜在继任者时，他称赞国务卿马可·鲁比奥（Marco Rubio）是一位强有力的候选人。
“Probably. Not necessarily,” he responded, later adding, “Maybe I’m better off not getting involved.”Asked who he would consider as a potential successor besides Vice President JD Vance, he praised Secretary of State Marco Rubio, describing him as a strong candidate.
“鲁比奥很棒。我是说，他当然热爱这份工作，而且干得很好。他干得非常出色。他们考虑的人选里有他，但还有很多其他人，我宁愿不提他们的名字。有些参议员非常优秀。我都认识。我很喜欢他们，”他说。
“Well, I think Marco’s great. I mean, he certainly loves it, and he’s doing great. He’s doing a fantastic job. The ones they think about, but there are many others, and I’d rather not mention their names. There’s some senators that are excellent. I know them all. I like them a lot,” he said.
尽管对是否背书任何人表示不确定，特朗普坚持认为，他的背书在共和党内仍将具有相当大的影响力。
Despite expressing uncertainty about whether he would endorse anyone, Trump maintained that his backing would carry considerable influence within the Republican Party.
“如果我背书，我认为会起很大作用，因为我的背书能力非常强，”他说。
“I think it would play a big role if I did, because my endorsement capacity has been very strong,” he said.
在共和党在周二的中期选举中遭受重大失利后，特朗普表示，他认为他的“让美国再次伟大”（MAGA）政治运动在他离任后仍能延续。他对该运动将在其总统任期后保持相关性表示自信。“我想是的，因为MAGA基本上就是常识，”他说。
Following the Republican party’s significant losses in Tuesday’s midterm elections, Trump said he believes his Make America Great Again (MAGA) political movement can continue even after he leaves office. He expressed confidence that the movement would remain relevant beyond his presidency. “I think so, because MAGA is basically common sense,” he said.
他进一步阐述了他认为该运动的核心原则，指出边境安全、军事力量和经济增长。
He further outlined what he considers the movement’s core principles, pointing to border security, military strength and economic growth.
“MAGA主张强有力的边境、强大的军队……我们创造了国家前所未有的财富水平，”他说。他表示，公众对其经济政策的广泛不满与伊朗战争无关。相反，他将共和党表现不佳的可能原因归结为沟通问题。
“MAGA’s strong borders, good military … We have created wealth at a level that our country has never seen before,” he said. He argued that widespread public dissatisfaction with his economic policies was not connected to the Iran war. Instead, he pointed to communication problems as a possible reason for the Republicans’ poor performance.
“信息传达不好，也许是我自己的问题，但我一直都在谈论它。所以我不知道，我还能谈多少，”他说。
“It was bad messaging, maybe by me, but I would talk about it all the time. So I don’t know, how much can I talk about it,” he said.
当被要求解释他所说的“信息传达不好”是什么意思时，这位总统认为，他的政府未能有效地将信息传达给选民。
Asked to explain what he meant by “bad messaging,” the president argued that his administration had failed to effectively communicate its message to voters.
“我们没能把话传出去，”他说，尽管此前在采访中他曾表示，自己在中期选举前举办了数十场竞选集会。
“We couldn’t get the word across,” he said, despite previously noting during the interview that he had held dozens of campaign rallies ahead of the midterm elections.
特朗普还对媒体发出批评，指责新闻媒体未能“为共和党报道正面新闻”。
Trump also directed criticism at the media, accusing news outlets of failing to “cover positive news for Republicans.”
