9月10日（路透社）——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普与共和党周四在达拉斯结束了一场不同寻常的大会，旨在提振中期选举选情，寄希望于高调展现的政党团结能激励支持者，帮助共和党打破历史上中期选举失利的魔咒。
以下是这场为期两天的大会的五大核心要点。

对抗“社会主义地狱般的国家”
美国共和党全国委员会原本将此次大会定位为让选民重新聚焦特朗普的政治议程、宣传共和党政策成果的契机。

但特朗普与多位上台发言者绝大多数时间都在攻击民主党为左翼极端分子，称其危险且不爱国。美国财政部长斯科特·贝森特指责民主党试图将美国变成一个“社会主义地狱般的国家”。
攻击政治对手、在选举 campaign 中制造恐慌是两党数十年来都在使用的策略。特朗普长期以来一直将犯罪与移民等议题作为其政治号召力的核心。
此次将攻击重点放在民主党身上，凸显了共和党在捍卫国会多数席位时面临的政治挑战。由于民众对高物价以及伊朗战争的不满给特朗普带来压力，发言者反复强调，由民主党掌控国会才会构成更大风险。
还是经济问题，蠢货
此次大会召开之际，民众对特朗普的经济施政表现日益不满，且他未能降低汽油与食品的高物价。
自去年以来，白宫幕僚一直向特朗普施压，要求其更多谈论经济议题。但与过去几个月一样，特朗普几乎未提及美国人在高生活成本下承受的痛苦。
他反而称对通胀的担忧被夸大了。反对者指出，今年夏天特朗普似乎更专注于华盛顿的翻新与遗产项目，包括其白宫宴会厅的改造。
在周三晚间的演讲中，特朗普再次宣称“可负担”一词是“虚假的”，并将高物价归咎于民主党。
“我正在大幅压低物价，”特朗普说道，这一说法与政府经济数据相悖。
特朗普与其他发言者确实宣传了其2025年减税政策——该政策今年让许多家庭从美国国税局获得了更高额退税——以及他为降低药品价格所做的努力。

“假装我在参选名单上”
特朗普与众多共和党人认为，当他不在参选名单上时，其“让美国再次伟大”（MAGA）的支持者投票积极性会更低，而11月的选举正是如此。
“假装我在参选名单上，”特朗普在欢呼声中说道。但民主党战略家或许更有理由庆祝，他们认为特朗普决心将自己置于竞选活动的中心，这有助于将选举变成对一位不受欢迎的总统的全民公投。
特朗普的这一策略存在风险，可能会疏远赢得国会选举所需的关键摇摆选民——这些选民因经济、伊朗战争以及移民突袭等一系列问题已经远离特朗普及其政党。
大手笔承诺
特朗普在演讲中作出了多项雄心勃勃的承诺，其中部分承诺可能难以兑现。
最引人注目的是一项提案：如果共和党赢得选举并继续掌控参众两院，将向每位美国成年人发放5000美元的“特朗普红利”。
该提案与特朗普此前提出的2000美元关税退税计划面临同样的障碍：无法获得国会批准——即说服议员支持一项可能耗资超过1万亿美元的法案。
特朗普还承诺，油价将在“我们打赢与伊朗的战争后立刻下跌”，他预测这场战争将在11月3日选举日后“很快结束”。
自2月美国与以色列对伊朗发动袭击以来，这场冲突几乎没有结束的迹象，这挫败了特朗普通过军事施压或外交谈判结束冲突的努力。
JD·万斯总统竞选或正式启动
如果共和党在11月失去参众两院中的一个或两个席位，可能会加剧一场关于谁将在2028年接替特朗普成为共和党总统候选人的激烈争论。这一讨论的核心人物是副总统JD·万斯。
周四晚间，万斯发表了主旨演讲，透露出他若参选总统将如何塑造自身形象。他在认同特朗普的民粹主义政治立场以及对民主党攻击性攻击的同时，花费了远多于特朗普通常会用到的时间谈论家庭、信仰与儿童未来，将此次选举塑造成一场他所称的保卫美国人“与生俱来权利”的战斗。
万斯在演讲中被观众高呼“48、48”——这一呼声意指他可能在作为第47任总统的特朗普之后，成为美国第48任总统。“我们必须在11月完成该做的事，之后再操心接下来的事，”他说道。
一个关键未知数是特朗普是否会最终钦定接班人，而特朗普在万斯之后上台发言时并未透露出任何相关想法。在过去十年中，特朗普重塑了共和党并打造了一支忠诚度极高的支持者队伍，他的背书将拥有巨大影响力。

Five big takeaways from Trump’s midterm convention
2026-09-11T03:29:43.155Z / Reuters
Sept 10 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump and his Republican Party wrapped up an unusual convention in Dallas on Thursday hoping to strengthen their midterm election prospects, gambling that a high-profile show of party unity will energize supporters and help Republicans defy historical midterm losses.
Here are five takeaways from the two-day convention.

RUNNING AGAINST A ‘SOCIALIST HELLSCAPE’
The Republican National Committee had billed the convention as a chance to refocus voters on Trump’s political agenda and tout the party’s policy successes.

But Trump and many other speakers on the convention stage focused most of their time on attacking Democrats as left-wing extremists and dangerously un-American. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent accused Democrats of wanting to turn the country into a “socialist hellscape.”
The tactic of attacking political opponents and injecting fear into an election campaign is a strategy deployed by both parties for decades. Trump has long made issues such as crime and immigration central to his political appeal.
The focus on Democrats underscored the political challenges confronting Republicans as they seek to defend their congressional majorities. With dissatisfaction over high prices and the war in Iran weighing on Trump, speakers repeatedly argued that Democratic control of Congress would pose the greater risk.
IT’S THE ECONOMY, STUPID
The gathering took place against the backdrop of growing unhappiness over Trump’s stewardship of the economy and his inability to bring down high prices on gasoline and groceries.
Trump has been under pressure from White House aides since last year to talk more about the economy. Yet as he has done for months, Trump said little about the pain Americans are experiencing from the high cost of living.
Instead, he said concerns about inflation were exaggerated, after a summer in which opponents say he has appeared more focused on renovation and legacy projects in Washington including his White House ballroom.
In his Wednesday night speech Trump again said that the word “affordable” was “fake” and that it was Democrats who caused high prices.
“I’m bringing prices way down,” Trump said, a statement that jars with government economic data.
Trump and other speakers did tout his 2025 tax cuts, which led to larger refunds from the tax-collecting Internal Revenue Service this year for many families, and his efforts to reduce drug prices.

‘PRETEND THAT I’M ON THE BALLOT’
Trump and many Republicans believe that his MAGA supporters are less likely to vote when he is not on the ballot, as will be the case in November.
“Pretend that I’m on the ballot,” Trump said to cheers. But Democratic strategists may well have had more reason to celebrate, viewing his determination to put himself at the center of the campaign as advancing their effort to make the election a referendum on an unpopular president.
Trump’s strategy is a gambit that risks turning off critical swing voters needed to win congressional races but who have drifted away from Trump and his party over a range of issues, including the economy, the war and immigration raids.
BIG-TICKET PROMISES
Trump used the speech to make several ambitious promises, some of which may be difficult to deliver.
The most extraordinary was a proposal to pay every U.S. adult a $5,000 “Trump dividend” if Republicans win the elections and retain their control of both houses of Congress.
The proposal faces the same obstacle as Trump’s previously floated $2,000 tariff rebate, which never won congressional approval: persuading lawmakers to support a measure that could cost more than $1 trillion.
Trump also promised that oil prices would drop “as soon as we win the war with Iran,” which he predicted would end “right after Election Day,” November 3.
The conflict has shown little sign of ending since the U.S. and Israel launched strikes on Iran in February, frustrating Trump’s efforts to bring it to a close either through military pressure or diplomatic negotiation.
POSSIBLE START OF JD VANCE’S PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN
If Republicans lose one or both chambers of Congress in November, it will likely intensify a simmering debate over who will succeed Trump as the party’s presidential candidate in 2028. A central figure in that discussion is Vice President JD Vance.
On Thursday night, Vance delivered a keynote address that offered a glimpse of how he might position himself should he seek the presidency. While embracing Trump’s populist politics and combative attacks on Democrats, he devoted far more time to themes of family, faith and children’s futures than Trump typically does, casting the election as a fight to preserve what he called Americans’ “birthright.”
Vance was greeted by chants of “48, 48” – a reference to the idea he could be the 48th U.S. president after Trump, the 47th. “We got to take care of business this November, then we’ll worry about what comes next,” he said.
A key unknown is whether Trump will eventually anoint a successor, and the president gave no hint of his thinking when he took the stage after Vance. His endorsement could carry enormous weight after a decade in which he reshaped the party and built a fiercely loyal base of supporters.
