唐纳德·特朗普在美国大选中击败卡马拉·哈里斯，实现最伟大的政治逆转

这本应是一场刀锋上的美国大选，一场势均力敌、难以预测的竞争。

Kamala Harris has suffered a crushing defeat in the US presidential election, losing key swing states and performing worse than Joe Biden's 2020 results in all but two states.

卡马拉·哈里斯在美国总统选举中遭遇惨败，失去了关键摇摆州，并且在除两个州外的所有州的表现都比乔·拜登的2020年成绩还要差。

The result is a remarkable turnaround for Donald Trump, who was given little chance of pulling off the greatest of political comebacks when he announced his bid to become president again in November 2022.

结果对唐纳德·特朗普来说是一个显着的转变，当他于 2022 年 11 月宣布再次竞选总统时，他几乎没有机会实现最大的政治东山再起。

Only one man in history has been re-elected after losing the presidency, and Trump had at one time seemed more likely to spend his late 70s in prison than in the Oval Office.

历史上只有一位在失去总统职位后再次当选的人，而特朗普一度似乎更有可能在监狱里度过 70 多岁的时光，而不是在椭圆形办公室里度过。

But Ms Harris had a golden opportunity to capitalise on Trump's weaknesses, having failed to secure the Democratic nomination in 2020 and facing questions about her ability to inspire voters.

但哈里斯女士有一个利用特朗普弱点的绝佳机会，她未能获得 2020 年民主党提名，并面临着她激励选民能力的质疑。

Yet swathes of black voters, Latin Americans, women, blue collar workers and the young all turned their backs on her, preferring instead the man who had been portrayed by so many as their enemy.

然而，大批黑人选民、拉丁美洲人、妇女、蓝领工人和年轻人都背弃了她，转而选择了这个被许多人视为敌人的男人。

As an extraordinary election night unfolded, it became obvious that Trump's opponents had once again woefully underestimated his ability to connect with a coalition of voters drawn from all parts of society.

随着一个非同寻常的选举之夜的展开，特朗普的反对者显然再次严重低估了他与来自社会各阶层的选民联盟建立联系的能力。

Good news for Ms Harris - or so it seemed at first

对哈里斯女士来说是个好消息——至少一开始看起来是这样

The night had started so differently for Ms Harris and her supporters.

对于哈里斯女士和她的支持者来说，这个夜晚的开始是如此不同。

Early exit polls from the first states to close their polling stations prompted talk of a Harris landslide, thanks to some wishful thinking about the motivation of voters.

由于对选民动机的一些一厢情愿的想法，第一批关闭投票站的州提前进行的出口民意调查引发了哈里斯压倒性的讨论。
