關鍵搖擺州明尼蘇達的六位民主黨市長公開支持川普,因為「喬·拜登沒有做過任何事情來幫助工人階級」。他們說︰川普2016年當選是一個「美妙」的事件;我們沒有選擇離開民主黨,是黨離開了我們。
最早引發美國騷亂的明尼蘇達州,是民主黨的傳統票倉,過去幾十年都支持民主黨。不過,現在明州可能要由藍轉紅了。明尼蘇達州被稱為鐵嶺地區(Iron Range,也稱鐵鏽地帶),是製造業外移、工人階級大幅失業的全球化經濟受害區之一。
六位市長簽署了一封支持川普的信件,該信件於8月28日(週五)公佈。
簽字的是︰兩港市(Two Harbors)市長Chris Swanson、維吉尼亞市(Virgini)市長Larry Cuffe、奇斯霍爾姆市(Chisholm)市長John Champa、伊利市(Ely)市長 Chuck Novak、伊芙蕾斯市(Eveleth)市長Robert Vlaisavljevich、巴比特市( Babbitt)市長Andrea Zupancich。
信中寫道︰我們看著我們選民的工作職位不僅離開了鐵嶺,還離開了我們的國家。通過對我們的產品徵收關稅和支持糟糕的貿易協議,像喬·拜登這樣的政客們對工人階級毫無幫助。
市長們表示,他們所在地區失去了數千個工作職位,而一代又一代的年輕人離開了鐵嶺,以便在其他地方找到高薪的工作養家糊口。
此外,他們還指出︰今天,我們不承認民主黨,它已經如此左傾,它不能再聲稱是工人階級的代言人。勤勞的明尼蘇達人在山脈這裡建立了自己的生活,養家糊口,卻被激進的民主黨人拋棄了。「我們沒有選擇離開民主黨,是黨離開了我們」。
市長們接著說,川普2016年當選是一個「美妙」的事件,標誌著該地區的一個轉折點。
「川普站出來反對中國,實施減稅,為工人階級而戰」他們寫道,「像喬·拜登這樣的終身政客與工人階級脫節,與國家需要的東西脫節,與我們這些鐵嶺地區和全國各地像我們這樣的小城鎮的人脫節」。
這封信最後說,「在這次選舉中,仍有很多的風險,但最大的風險是我們的工作、經濟和生活方式。川普總統過去帶來了美國歷史上最好的經濟,他也將再次為我們帶回。他將繼續為每個美國人而戰,不論黨派關係,他會繼續為工人階級挺身而出」。

Fellow Americans,
As Greater Minnesota Mayors from Democratic cities on the Iron Range of Minnesota, we write today to formally endorse the re-election of President Donald J. Trump and Vice President Mike Pence.
Like many in our region, we have voted for Democrats over many decades. We have watched as our constituents' jobs left not only the Iron Range, but our country. By putting tariffs on our products and supporting bad trade deals, politicians like Joe Biden did nothing to help the working class. We lost thousands of jobs, and generations of young people have left the Iron Range in order to provide for their families with good paying jobs elsewhere. Today, we don't recognize the Democratic Party. It has been moved so far to the left it can no longer claim to be advocates of the working class. The hard-working Minnesotans that built their lives and supported their families here on the Range have been abandoned by radical Democrats. We didn’t choose to leave the Democratic Party, the party left us.
Yet, four years ago, something wonderful happened. Donald J. Trump was elected President of the United States, and he stood up to China, implemented tax cuts and fought for the working class. Now, four years later, the Iron Range is roaring back to life and for the first time in a very long time, locals are hopeful because of this President's policies and willingness to fight for us. Lifelong politicians like Joe Biden are out of touch with the working class, out of touch with what the country needs, and out of touch with those of us here on the Iron Range and in small towns like ours across our nation.
In this election, there is a lot at stake, but the biggest risk is our jobs, our economy, and our way of life. President Trump delivered the best economy in our nation’s history, and President Trump will deliver for us again. He will continue to fight for every American, regardless of party affiliation and continue to stand up for the working class.
Today, we write to formally endorse President Donald J. Trump and Vice President Mike Pence for four more years.

身為運動員,為了隨時保持最佳狀態迎向挑戰,需要比一般人更重視營養的攝取,在挑選產品時,除了要注意產品本身的功能與成分,我也一直相信,產品背後的品牌,若能秉持好的理念,產品品質也就更值得被信賴。
