华盛顿——多名了解此事的美国官员向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻透露，一些白宫官员希望处境艰难的共和党籍众议员马克斯·米勒立即退出俄亥俄州的国会竞选，特朗普总统私下也表达了类似态度。
两位直接了解通话情况的消息人士向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻证实，特朗普周一致电米勒，就其连任竞选一事表达担忧，此前米勒被指控袭击前妻艾米丽·莫雷诺以及他们两岁的女儿。但据其中一位消息人士透露，米勒已坚决否认这些指控，并告知总统他没有退出竞选的计划。
作为共和党候选人的米勒，需在周三下午4点前撤回参选资格，以便共和党有机会在11月的选票上替换他的名字。萨福新闻率先报道称，总统和部分白宫助手私下表示希望米勒退出竞选。
周二上午，米勒表示将提交文件，启动针对自己的国会道德调查，以证清白。
“鉴于近期外界对我家庭事务的再度关注，我将自行提交相关文件，启动针对我的道德调查，以洗清针对我和家人的这些恶劣指控，”米勒在X平台上写道。“我绝对没有任何可隐瞒之处。我们将向委员会提供全面详细审查所需的所有必要文件。指控不断变化，但我掌握的事实始终不变。我期待我的同僚们能亲自审阅所有材料。”
周一，特朗普总统表示他认为米勒是“非常优秀的人”，并称他将让相关家庭自行解决此事。
“嗯，这是一件非常令人难过的事，”特朗普周一在椭圆形办公室对记者说道。“我认识马克斯，他是个好人，我的意思是，我一直觉得他是个非常优秀的人。我会让这些家庭自己弄清楚。我知道他们正在处理这件事。这是一件非常令人难过的事。尤其是当你非常了解某个人，却要经历这种事情的时候。但这只是指控。我会让他们自己解决。”
周一早些时候，米勒在发给哥伦比亚广播公司新闻的一份声明中表示：“如果我退出这场竞选，那就意味着我们国家距离美国价值观已经如此遥远。我不会为了迎合舆论法庭而退出，以此坐实虚假指控。我对所有针对我的指控均不认罪。我在代表选民利益方面做得很好。我为什么要退出？”
米勒的前妻艾米丽·莫雷诺是俄亥俄州共和党参议员伯尼·莫雷诺的女儿。这位参议员周日在一份声明中表示，米勒“不应该在众议院任职”，并且“需要接受严肃的心理治疗”。

Behind closed doors, Trump and White House officials hope Rep. Max Miller drops reelection bid, sources say

Washington— Some White House officials hope embattled GOP Rep. Max Miller exits the congressional race in Ohio immediately, and President Trump has expressed a similar sentiment behind closed doors, multiple U.S. officials familiar with the matter tell CBS News.
Mr. Trump called Miller on Monday and raised concerns about his reelection bid following allegations that Miller assaulted his ex-wife, Emily Moreno, and their 2-year-old daughter, two sources directly familiar with the call confirmed to CBS News. But Miller, who has adamantly denied the allegations, told the president he has no plans to leave the race, according to one of the sources.
Miller, the GOP nominee, has until 4 p.m. Wednesday to withdraw his candidacy and give Republicans a chance to replace him on the ballot in November. Semafor first reported that the president and some White House aides said privately that they wanted Miller out of the race.
On Tuesday morning, Miller said he would file the paperwork to launch a congressional ethics investigation into himself in an effort to clear his name.
“In light of all the renewed interest in my family affairs I am going to file my own paperwork for an ethics investigation into myself to clear my name from these horrific attacks on myself and family,” Miller wrote on X. “I have absolutely nothing to hide. We will be providing the committee all necessary documents needed for a detail[ed] examination. The accusations continue to change, but my facts stay the same. I am looking forward to my colleagues reading everything for themselves.”
On Monday, the president said he thought Miller was a “very good person” and said he would let the families involved resolve the situation.
“Well, it’s a very sad thing,” the president told reporters in the Oval Office Monday. “I know Max, he’s a good person, I mean, I always thought he was a very good person. And I’m going to let the families figure that out. Those families, I know they’re working on it. It’s a very sad thing. Especially when you know somebody so well to be going through that. But it’s accusations. And I’m going to let them figure that out.”
In an earlier statement to CBS News on Monday, Miller said: “If I dropped out of this race, it would mean we as a nation have fallen so far from our American values. I will not validate false claims by removing myself just to please the court of public opinion. I am innocent of all of the allegations that have been attributed to me. I have done well representing my constituents’ interests. Why would I drop out?”
Emily Moreno, Miller’s ex-wife, is the daughter of Ohio GOP Sen. Bernie Moreno. The senator said in a statement on Sunday that Miller “should not serve in the House of Representatives” and “needs serious psychological help.”
