1. 在援助本国国民这件事(给福利上)MAGA比非MAGA的人更愿意吗? 他们在这件事上的立场实际上很明确。 就是把钱“还给富豪”(2017税改)。
2. MAGA不单在这件事上反民主,不是一天两天,一个决议两个决议的问题。 在美国大选, 焚书坑儒,Gerrymandering 控制子宫等诸多事情上反民主。
3. 请注意,这本来就是 Opinion的文章, 表达的是作者观点,不是纽时的社论,所以并不代表纽时的立场。 人总是可以有自己的观点的, 表达一下自己的观点, 不代表我就是伟光正。
还有, 中文翻译也许不够到位, 原文针对的是"MAGA Politicians"。 当然这些政客也反映和影响他们的选民。 他们支持普京也不是一天两天的事。 。。。。
Why, then, do MAGA politicians want to cut Ukraine off?
The answer is, unfortunately, obvious. Whatever Republican hard-liners may say, they want Putin to win. They view the Putin regime’s cruelty and repression as admirable features that America should emulate. They support a wannabe dictator at home and are sympathetic to actual dictators abroad.
So pay no attention to all those complaints about how much we’re spending in Ukraine. They aren’t justified by the actual cost of aid, and the people claiming to be worried about the cost don’t really care about the money. What they are, basically, is enemies of democracy, both abroad and at home.
