周二,美国好莱坞女演员艾莉莎·米兰诺在洛杉矶的弹劾集会上向群众讲话,对川普和整个共和党进行了激烈的斥责。
在国会周三投票之前,许多总统的反对者聚集在全国各地,进行一系列抗议和集会,目的是敦促参众两院投票支持对川普总统进行弹劾和罢免。这位女演员在洛杉矶的集会上发表了热情洋溢的讲话,呼吁共和党人认清川普的自欺欺人和“许多很多可耻的罪行。”
这位46岁的进步主义者在抨击川普及其政党之前,高喊“民主就应该是这样”。
米兰诺说,“我很生气,如果他(川普)认为(瑞典环保女孩)格蕾塔那叫生气,那么他还什么都没看见。我才是真的生气!”
她继续说:“你知道我为什么生气吗?我很生气,因为我很累。我对此感到厌倦。请不要误解我的意思,我不厌倦与川普及其无数捉摸不定的罪行作斗争,我也不厌倦面对强权说出真话—我永远都不会厌倦这些。但是我对总统的谎言感到非常厌倦,并且对整个共和党都认为我们(人民)很愚蠢感到厌倦!”
她继续指出,许多共和党人的观点,即民主党人专注于弹劾意味着他们无法履行自身职责,是站不住脚的。她强调自民主党于2018年掌权以来众议院通过了“数百项法案”。
她说:“但是很奇怪参议院从来不提这个。” “民主党领导的众议院通过了许多法案,但参议院议长麦康诺却不允许在共和党控制的参议院就这些法案进行辩论,而且川普也不支持这里边的任何一项法案。他们(共和党)认为我们很愚蠢,他们认为我们非常愚蠢,甚至觉得如果他们对弹劾程序感到不满,我们(选民)就会认为川普是无辜的。”
她补充说:“我认为,这个家伙(川普)严重妨碍了司法,滥用权力,贿赂腐败,阻挠国会,这些美国人民都知道,我们还知道共和党正在把党派利益置于国家之上。”
这位女演员在集会结束时呼吁,支持弹劾总统的人们要去投票把共和党人从公职赶下台。
她说:“由于整个共和党都在贬低这个国家伟大的人民的才智,我们必须为赶走他们而努力,我们要为夺回他们占有的席位而去投票!” “现在距大选只有322天,你要怎么做?”

Alyssa Milano slams Republicans at Trump impeachment rally: 'They think we’re dumb'
By Tyler McCarthy | Fox NewsAlyssa Milano addressed the crowd at a Los Angeles impeachment rally Tuesday with a fiery rebuke of both Donald Trump and the entire Republican Party.Ahead of the vote Wednesday, many of the president’s detractors gathered across the country for a series of protests and rallies aimed at urging both the House and the Senate to vote in favor of President Trump’s impeachment and removal from office. The actress joined the crowd of people rallying in Los Angeles to give an impassioned speech that called out Republicans for complacency in Trump’s, “many, many impeachable offenses.”The 46-year-old activist led the crowd in a chant of, “This is what democracy looks like” before getting into the meat of her complaints with Trump and his party.“I am angry,” she began. If he thought Greta [Thunberg] was angry, he’s seen nothing yet. I’m premenopausal and I am angry!”She continued: “And do you know why I’m angry? I’m angry because I’m so tired. I’m tired of this. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not tired of fighting Donald Trump and his many, many impeachable offenses and I’m not tired of speaking truth to power — I will never tire of that. But I am so tired of being lied to by a president, and I’m tired that the entire Republican party thinks that we are all stupid!”She went on to note that she believes the point made by many Republicans that Democrats focusing on impeachment means they can’t fulfill their other duties is specious, highlighting the “hundreds of bills” passed by the House since Democrats took control in 2018.“Weird that the Senate won’t bring that up,” she said. “Democratic House passed all of this but Mitch McConnell won’t even allow a debate on these bills in the Republican-led Senate, and Trump won’t support any of them. So they think we’re dumb, they think we’re dumb enough to believe that if they complain about the procedure enough that we’ll think that Trump is innocent of any impeachable offenses.”She added: “I mean, this a--hole has committed obstruction of justice, abuse of power, bribery, obstruction of Congress and the American people know this and we also know the Republicans are picking party over country.”The actress concluded her rally speech with a call on those that support impeachment to go after sitting Republicans by voting them out of office.“And because the entire Republican party has belittled the intelligence of the great people of this country, we are coming for them and we are coming for their seats!” she said. “There are 322 days until the election, what will you do?”
