Topics
托尼·欣奇克利夫:使用粗俗的语言,将波多黎各比作漂浮的垃圾岛,引发强烈反弹。其言论与特朗普的竞选活动格格不入,体现了集会中充斥的极端言论。 大卫·雷姆:将卡马拉·哈里斯称为"魔鬼",体现了集会中攻击性言论的普遍性,加剧了政治紧张局势。 史蒂芬·米勒:强调特朗普的反移民立场,主张"美国只属于美国人",反映了集会中强烈的民族主义和排外情绪。 唐纳德·特朗普:在集会上重申其极端立场,承诺大规模驱逐出境,并清除学校中的批判性种族理论和跨性别议题。他还将卡马拉·哈里斯描绘成危险人物,并暗示民主党是"内部敌人",煽动对抗情绪。 格兰特·卡多内:使用粗俗的语言攻击卡马拉·哈里斯,称她为骗子、伪君子,进一步加剧了集会的负面气氛。 塔克·卡尔森:侮辱卡马拉·哈里斯的混血背景和智力,并暗指种族替代理论,试图煽动种族矛盾。 特里·博利亚:否认集会上存在纳粹分子或国内恐怖分子,回应了此前将集会与纳粹集会进行比较的批评。 阿里·夏皮罗:总结了集会中的极端言论,并指出特朗普的竞选语言变得更加极端。 丹妮尔·阿尔瓦雷斯:代表特朗普竞选团队发表声明,否认欣奇克利夫的言论代表特朗普或竞选团队的观点,这在特朗普以往的竞选活动中并不常见。 丹妮尔·库尔茨莱本:分析了集会引发的负面回应,并指出几乎没有什么能够改变民调结果,即使是极端的言论。她还强调了特朗普竞选团队对负面回应的罕见回应。
