Can you smell the schadenfreude(幸灾乐祸) in the air?
你能闻到空气中的幸灾乐祸吗?
Watching some of the worst people in the world get their comeuppance(应得的惩罚) this week has been deeply satisfying. And the show isn’t over yet. While the midterms have wrapped up, the blame game(相互推诿) is only just getting started, with Republicans desperate to find scapegoat(替罪羊)s for their shellacking(惨败).
本周看着世界上一些最坏的人得到应有的报应,真是大快人心。而且好戏还没完。中期选举虽已结束,但相互推诿才刚刚开始,共和党人急于为他们的惨败寻找替罪羊。
He may be a big, strong, testosterone-obsessed(满脑子睾酮的) warrior, but I suspect Pete Hegseth is panicking right now. When it comes to scapegoats, the defence secretary (or “war secretary”, as he prefers to identify as) is an obvious choice. The disastrous US-Israeli war on Iran played a key role in the midterm upset(意外失利), as even JD Vance has admitted, and Hegseth was one of its main architect(设计者,缔造者)s.
他或许是个高大强壮、满脑子睾酮的战士,但我怀疑皮特·赫格塞斯此刻正惊慌失措。说到替罪羊,这位国防部长(或者他更喜欢自称的“战争部长”)是显而易见的人选。灾难性的美以对伊战争在中期选举的意外失利中起了关键作用,连JD·万斯都承认了这一点,而赫格塞斯正是这场战争的主要设计者之一。
