The Race For President Has Started

President Trump attempted to jumpstart his campaign in Tulsa, Oklahoma last Saturday with a political rally. In his almost two-hour long speech, he said we begin our campaign and the silent majority is stronger than ever before. The rally location was just a block away from a 1921 racial massacre. Most people who attended did not follow the rule of the CDC for wearing masks.

In his speech, Trump accused the media of favoring presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and defended his handling of the pandemic.

Today, the White House faces many political issues including announcements about former National Security advisor John Bolton and Trump’s niece who have both published books that level personal attacks on the president’s reputation. These books will damage his election according to the latest polls. President Trump is already behind Joe Biden by 11 percent according to the recent count.

Today we are facing so many challenges in the world from the coronavirus pandemic to the disputes in many regions of the globe. As the leader of the world, this coming U.S. presidential election will decide our future.

                    总统争夺战正式展开

上週末川普总统在阿拉巴马州吐桑市近万人之集会上发表了一场近二个小时充满激情冗长的总统竞选演说，场内外更有热情激动的支持和反对者在相互叫阵，这个会议中心距离一九二一年屠杀黑人商业社区事件之市区近在咫尺，大会也未遵从国家疾管中心之规定，热情群众都未戴口罩及社交距离，川普总统在开场白中宣称，这是美国大多数人最团结壮大的时候。

这位刚过七十四岁生日的美国总统，他号召要美国重新强大，他极力辩护白宫对新冠病毒之防治工作 ，并指控自由派左倾媒体对他的攻击及对民主党总统候选人拜登之袒护 他更不忘记病毒是来自中国大陆造成世界及美国之难。

白宫后院目前也点燃了大火，川普前国安顾问波顿在其新书中述说川普之无能及不适任，不顾国家利益而只希望连仼，近日来双方互相指责所用言语到了污秽不堪之地步，包括川普之亲姪女玛利川普近日也将出书揭露她叔叔许多违法漏税的内幕。

十一月大选已在逼近，根据三大电视网之民调，川普已落后拜登十二个百分点，在共和党佔优势的佛罗里达州及德州，也可能翻盘，对川普而言这是不可能接受的民意反应。

目前世界情势一团溷乱，加上疫情继续扩散十分令人担忧，美国十一月份之大选，不止关系到我们国家之前途，更和全球未来息息相关。
