Extraordinary warning to Trump by 10 former Pentagon chiefs
10位前五角大楼防长对特朗普发出特别警告
In an extraordinary rebuke of United States President Donald Trump, all 10 living former secretaries of defence cautioned Sunday against any move to involve the military in pursuing claims of election fraud, arguing that it would take the country into “dangerous, unlawful and unconstitutional territory”.
周日,10位前国防部长对美国总统唐纳德·特朗普发出了特别警告,他们告诫称,不要让军方介入追查选举舞弊案,称这会把美国带入“危险、非法和违宪的境地”。
The 10 men, both Democrats and Republicans, signed on to an opinion article published in The Washington Post that implicitly questioned Trump’s willingness to follow his constitutional duty to peacefully relinquish power on Jan 20. Following the Nov 3 election and subsequent recounts in some states, as well as unsuccessful court challenges, the outcome is clear, they wrote, while not specifying Trump in the article.
这10位有民*党人,也有共和党人,他们在《华盛顿邮报》发表的一篇评论文章上签了名。文章含蓄地质疑特朗普是否愿意履行宪法义务,于1月20日和平交出权力。他们写道,在11月3日的大选以及随后一些州的重新计票,以及失败的法庭诉讼之后,结果很清楚了,但没有在文章中具体提到特朗普。
“The time for questioning the results has passed; the time for the formal counting of the electoral college votes, as prescribed in the constitution and statute, has arrived,” they wrote.
他们写道:“质疑选举结果的时间已经过去。按照宪法规定,正式计算选举人票的时间已经到了。”
The former Pentagon chiefs warned against use of the military in any effort to change the outcome.
这些前五角大楼防长警告说,不要动用武力来改变选举结果。
“Efforts to involve the US armed forces in resolving election disputes would take us into dangerous, unlawful and unconstitutional territory,” they wrote. “Civilian and military officials who direct or carry out such measures would be accountable, including potentially facing criminal penalties, for the grave consequences of their actions on our republic.”
“让美国武装部队参与解决选举纠纷的努力,将把我们带入危险、非法和违宪的境地,”他们写道。“指挥或执行相关措施的文职人员和军事要员应对行动产生的严重后果负责,包括面临刑事处罚。”
A number of senior military officers, including Gen Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, have said publicly in recent weeks that the military has no role in determining the outcome of US elections and that their loyalty is to the constitution, not to an individual leader or a political party.
其中,包括参谋长联席会议主席马克·米尔利将军在内的许多高级军官在最近几周也公开表示,军方在决定美国选举结果方面不扮演任何角色。他们的忠诚是对宪法,而不是个别领导人或个别政党领袖。
The 10 former Pentagon leaders also warned in their Post article of the dangers of impeding a full and smooth transition at the Defence Department prior to Inauguration Day as part of a transfer to power to President-elect Joe Biden. Biden has complained of efforts by Trump-appointed Pentagon officials to obstruct the transition.
这10名前五角大楼领导人在他们的文章中还警告说,在总统就职日前阻碍国防部全面、平稳地移交权力、顺利过渡是危险的,国防部移交权力是向当选总统乔·拜登移交权力的一部分。拜登抱怨特朗普任命的五角大楼官 员阻碍过渡。

Too little, too late. Why were they muted, numb, frozen, silent and dumb since November 03, 2020?
