隨著兩位總統候選人進入七十歲，關於二號人物距離橢圓形辦公室只有心跳的古老短語似乎從未在邁克-彭斯和卡馬拉-哈里斯之間的辯論中更加相關，Co vid被送到舞臺上。

Although divided by plexiglass, the American people have witnessed what is the greatest failure of any presidential administration in the history of our country.

雖然被有機玻璃隔開，但美國人民目睹了我國曆史上任何一屆總統政府的最大失敗。

但我想讓美國人民知道，從唐納德-特朗普總統的第一天起，就把美國的健康放在第一位，無論副總統在宣稱什麼，政府已經做了明確的工作，它並沒有發揮作用但當你說與美國人民在過去八個月裡做了沒有工作。

The sacrifices the American people have made this debate had none of the histrionics and shouting of last week in what felt like a nil all draw.

美國人民做出的犧牲，這場辯論沒有上週的喧囂和吶喊，感覺像是一場零的全平。

To be honest, the most exciting bit came when a very black fly landed in Mike Pence's very white hair and stayed there.

說實話，最讓人興奮的是，一隻很黑的蒼蠅落在邁克-彭斯很白的頭髮上，並停留在那裡。

我們不知道總統會怎麼做，他的想法每時每刻都在改變... ...如果我現在就去評論，那是不負責任的。

I think that I'm gonna follow the commission recommendation.

我想我還是按照委員會的建議去做吧。

If he goes off and he's gonna have a rally, I'll I don't know what Theo strategy of the president pre illness had Bean to change the subject away from the pandemic.

But for a while that he still confined to quarters while Joe Biden is out campaigning, something that will add to the president's growing frustration.

但有一段時間，他仍然被限制在宿舍裡，而喬-拜登正在外面競選，這將增加總統越來越多的挫折感。

Incredible the way it's understandable that the president would much prefer to have an in person debate.

不可思議的方式，可以理解為總統更願意進行當面辯論。

One other thing that significant that has happened today.

還有一件今天發生的重大事情。

The Senate majority leader, a Republicans normally slavishly loyal to Donald Trump, has come out with absolute withering criticism off the White House is handling on, has said that the president more or less has got what he deserves by the laxness over mask wearing and keeping social distancing.

參議院多數黨領袖，共和黨人平時對唐納德-特朗普忠心耿耿，已經出來用絕對尖銳的責備關白宮正在處理上，已經說，總統或多或少已經得到了他應得的東西，通過對戴面具和保持社會距離的鬆懈。

也許我們看到了共和黨團結的第一個裂縫。
