我見 我聞 我思

川普让我們顏面丟盡

眾議院週三下午以二百三十二票對一百九十七票通過彈劾川普總統案 ，其中包括十位共和黨眾議員 ，他們指控川普總統煽動元月六日在國會大厦的暴亂， 這也是美國有史以來首位被第二次被彈劾的國家元首，他第一次被彈劾是在二O一九年七月，但在參院遭否決。

上週三的國會暴亂 ，使美國民主政治遭受嚴重之損害， 让美國在世界之影響力受到挑戰 ，事發當天 ，全世界領袖親眼目睹暴徒洗劫國會殿堂， 看起來就是許多國家的顏色革命 ，旨在推翻現任政府， 這種場面公然在老牌的民主国家出現。

川普總统在他最後的一星期 ，仍然繼續推動許多外交事務， 包括台灣問題，給予拜登增加難題。

拜登團隊即將在一星期內走馬上任， 他接下了一大堆爛攤子， 當前最急迫之事務是解決已經失控的新冠疫情及衰退的全國經濟 ，我們很快就有一個新總統， 而不是一個新的國家， 川普在任時期已經把歐洲及中國大陸之關係搞到無法修復之地步， 倘若拜登要重整各國關係 ，是件非常艱難之任務， 根據歐洲人民之一項最新調查顯示 ，德國人在川普上任後不再相信美國是一個可靠的盟友， 大多數歐洲人也對拜登是否可以領導世界之能力表示懷疑。

走在美墨邊境的川普 ，還在大力鼓吹他建立的美墨邊境長城是他的豐功偉業 ，但是他却還是不戴口罩， 更不顧不斷惡化失控之疫情，每三十秒就有一位國人不幸去世。

川普總統， 請你趕快下台嗎， 你已經把我們的顏面丟光了！

Trump Made Us Lose Face

The U.S. House of Representatives voted 232 to 197 to impeach President Trump for incitement of insurrection. Ten Republicans voted for the bill, including the House’s number three Republican, Liz Cheney of Wyoming.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said, “We know that the President of the United States incited this insurrection, this armed rebellion against our common country He must go. He is a clear and present danger to the nation that we all love.

Following the riot, President Trump has not addressed the nation or asked for calm. He has not offered condolences when he visited the Texas border. He said his comments were perfectly appropriate.

In the Senate, the majority leader, Mitch McConnell does not plan to bring the Senate back for an impeachment trial before January 19, meaning that the trial won’t begin until Trump is out of office. 

One week after the deadly insurrection at the Capitol there are still questions whether some lawmakers and police assisted the pro-Trump rioters so they could easily enter to the Capitol building. House Republican Congressman Ali Alexander said he had hoped his “mob” would pressure lawmakers to block president-elect Joe Biden’s victory through the Electoral College. After the riot was quelled, they voted to throw out the Electoral votes and his effort failed.

More than 70 people have already been charged with federal crimes related to the riot.

Today the nation reported more than 381,000 deaths since the pandemic began. The country also reached a peak level of new infections and hospitalizations for the country that is still reeling from the attempted insurrection at the nation’s Capitol.

Even though President Trump has announced sweeping changes to rollout the vaccine, it is really too little too late.

Mr. President, do you really care about us?
