我见 我闻 我思

川普让我们顏面丢尽

眾议院週三下午以二百三十二票对一百九十七票通过弹劾川普总统案 ，其中包括十位共和党眾议员 ，他们指控川普总统煽动元月六日在国会大厦的暴乱， 这也是美国有史以来首位被第二次被弹劾的国家元首，他第一次被弹劾是在二O一九年七月，但在参院遭否决。

上週三的国会暴乱 ，使美国民主政治遭受严重之损害， 让美国在世界之影响力受到挑战 ，事发当天 ，全世界领袖亲眼目睹暴徒洗劫国会殿堂， 看起来就是许多国家的顏色革命 ，旨在推翻现任政府， 这种场面公然在老牌的民主国家出现。

川普总统在他最后的一星期 ，仍然继续推动许多外交事务， 包括台湾问题，给予拜登增加难题。

拜登团队即将在一星期内走马上任， 他接下了一大堆烂摊子， 当前最急迫之事务是解决已经失控的新冠疫情及衰退的全国经济 ，我们很快就有一个新总统， 而不是一个新的国家， 川普在任时期已经把欧洲及中国大陆之关係搞到无法修復之地步， 倘若拜登要重整各国关係 ，是件非常艰难之任务， 根据欧洲人民之一项最新调查显示 ，德国人在川普上任后不再相信美国是一个可靠的盟友， 大多数欧洲人也对拜登是否可以领导世界之能力表示怀疑。

走在美墨边境的川普 ，还在大力鼓吹他建立的美墨边境长城是他的丰功伟业 ，但是他却还是不戴口罩， 更不顾不断恶化失控之疫情，每三十秒就有一位国人不幸去世。

川普总统， 请你赶快下台吗， 你已经把我们的顏面丢光了！

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?
