Topics
Tamara Keith: 特朗普在与塔克·卡尔森的对话中使用了煽动性言论,攻击了丽兹·切尼,并使用了暴力意象。哈里斯则利用特朗普的言论攻击他,强调他不适合担任公职,并在拉斯维加斯的集会上,利用特朗普竞选集会上出现的种族主义言论攻击特朗普。特朗普试图淡化这些负面言论的影响,并反过来攻击拜登。 Scott Horsley: 美国经济目前状况良好,就业市场强劲,工资上涨超过通货膨胀。尽管10月份的就业增长预计放缓,但主要原因是罢工和飓风的影响,这并不代表经济整体放缓。消费者支出强劲,主要得益于工资增长和通货膨胀放缓。通货膨胀率接近美联储的目标,汽油价格下跌是主要因素。尽管经济数据向好,但许多美国人仍然感到经济压力,特别是住房问题。 Andrea Hsu: 工会非常关注本次选举,因为拜登政府对工会友好,而特朗普被视为对工会构成威胁。工会正在积极动员选民,强调特朗普对工人的负面言论。工会在动员选民方面投入了大量资源,进行了大规模的电话和上门拜访。研究表明,仅仅询问人们是否打算投票就能提高投票的可能性。工会相信他们的动员工作正在发挥作用。 Tamara Keith: 特朗普的煽动性言论和哈里斯的反击,以及双方对彼此言论的利用,构成了本次竞选活动中一个重要的焦点。特朗普试图将负面影响最小化,并反过来攻击对手,而哈里斯则抓住机会强调特朗普的不适合性。 Scott Horsley: 当前的经济数据显示出积极的趋势,但同时也存在一些挑战,例如住房短缺和持续存在的经济压力。这些因素可能会影响选民的投票意向。 Andrea Hsu: 工会的积极动员和对选民的接触,显示出工会在本次选举中扮演着重要的角色。他们试图通过强调特朗普对工人的负面态度来影响选民的投票选择,并相信他们的努力能够产生积极的效果。
