optimism got a further boost after US President Donald Trump signed into law a two point trillion dollar pandemic relief and spending package.

在美國總統唐納德-特朗普簽署兩點萬億美元的疫情救助和支出方案成為法律後，樂觀情緒得到了進一步提升。

Trump backed down from his threat to block the bill and his demand that Congress increased stimulus checks for struggling Americans from 600 to $2000.

特朗普從他阻止法案的威脅和他要求國會將對掙扎的美國人的刺激支票從600美元增加到2000美元的要求中退縮。

過去完成式

The president had condemned the spending plans as a disgrace.

總統曾譴責支出計劃是一種恥辱。

The bill will now restore unemployment benefits to millions of people and avert a shutdown of government services.

現在，該法案將恢復數百萬人的失業救濟，並避免政府服務的關閉。

Well, for more now on this, we're joined by Liz Sulka.

好了，關於這個問題的更多資訊，我們現在由Liz Sulka加入。

Why did Donald Trump take almost a week to sign this crucially important bill?

為什麼唐納德-特朗普用了近一週的時間才簽署這項至關重要的法案？

There are a lot of factors that play that kind of influenced why Trump dragged his heels.

有很多因素在起作用，那種影響了特朗普為什麼拖後腿。

I'll never forget before he ran for president, he said.

我永遠不會忘記他競選總統之前，他說。

I'm going to suck all the oxygen out of the room.

And if we look at the last four years, that's exactly his continual media motive.

而如果我們看一下過去四年，這正是他持續的媒體動機。

Eso I think part of it was he just likes that attention.

我想部分原因是他喜歡這種關注。

He likes being that's sticking point, that bottleneck.

他喜歡當這個支點，這個瓶頸。

I also think he was kind of hiding some other things that were going on he wanted theater tension, rightfully so on co vid.

我也覺得他是一種隱藏一些其他的事情，他想要劇場的張力，理所當然的在co vid上。

But however, he was hiding some ulterior motives while he pushed through.

但不過，他在推敲的同時，也隱藏著一些不可告人的目的。

I think at this point, almost 50 pardons for people close to him that could have potentially raised a lot more criticism in the media.

我想此時，近50個赦免他身邊的人，有可能會引起媒體更多的責備。

I think it was a combination of him wanting that attention as well as kind of like, Look over here.

我想這是他希望得到關注的組合，也是一種喜歡，看這裡。

Not here on also, I just don't think we can discount that.

在這裡也不行，我只是覺得不能打折扣。

He's always looking at the next election on.

他一直在關注下一次選舉的情況。

He may very well in four years be pointing back and saying, Guys, I fought for you.

他很可能在四年後指著後面說，夥計們，我為你們而戰。

Lawmakers from the president's own Republican Party had to plea with the president to sign the bill before tonight's deadline.

來自總統所在的共和黨的議員們不得不懇求總統在今晚的最後期限前簽署該法案。

What does that say about the current political climate in the US?

這說明了美國目前的政治氣候如何？

I think the current political climate is best summarized by the exhausted middle and what we're seeing when we see the two Republican senators running in Georgia, and they're both urging the president to sign this relief bill.

我認為目前的政治氣候是最好的總結，疲憊的中間和我們所看到的，當我們看到兩個共和黨參議員在喬治亞州競選時，他們都敦促總統簽署這項救濟法案。

Folks average folks in their homes in their lives.

鄉親們在生活中一般鄉親們的家。

This takes so much more president over political theater.

這需要更多的總統，而不是政治戲劇。

Um and so what we're seeing is even conservative politicians that might want to oppose something largely trumpeted by the Democrats.

嗯，所以我們看到的是，即使是保守的政治家，也可能想反對一些主要由民主黨人鼓吹的東西。

They just want something through, Um, folks are Folks are tired of this volley back and forth.

他們只是想通過一些東西，嗯，鄉親們已經厭倦了這種來回的波動。

They're saying this has serious, significant economic ramifications and we'd rather you reach a deal on, get absolutely everything you want on.

他們說，這有嚴重的，重大的經濟影響，我們寧願你達成協議，得到絕對的一切你想要的上。

I think that's kind of I like to be optimistic and and look at it as lawmakers getting back to actually governing and a little bit away from the political theater we've seen from Trump for the last four years.

我認為這是一種我喜歡樂觀，並將其視為立法者回到實際治理和一點點遠離我們在過去四年中看到的特朗普的政治戲劇。

Please, thank you so much for your insights.
