当地时间9月26日晚，美国大选进行两党候选人第一轮电视辩论，这也是民主党总统候选人希拉里与共和党总统候选人特朗普的首次正面对决。90分钟的唇枪舌战，两人就美国方向Claim: Donald Trump repeated his insistence that he was against the 2003 invasion of Iraq, claiming Clinton's assertions to the contrary were "mainstream media nonsense put out by her". 现场表述：特朗普反复强调说他是反对2003年入侵伊拉克的，并声称克林顿方面说他支持伊拉克战争的观点是“她向主流媒体散布出去的胡言乱语”。 Reality Check verdict: Trump did not publicly speak out against the war before it started. On September, 11 2002, radio host Howard Stern asked Trump if he supported a potential invasion of Iraq. He replied: "Yeah, I guess so". During the debate, he tried to explain that away by saying the comment had been made "lightly". He said he had been arguing in private, to Fox News's Sean Hannity, that war would destabilize the Middle East, but we have no evidence to support that so far. He did start to express doubts after the invasion. 事实查证：伊拉克战争开始之前，特朗普并未公开表示反对。2002年9月11日，电台主持人Howard Stern问特朗普是否支持未来入侵伊拉克，他回答说：“是的，我想应该支持吧。”在辩论中，特朗普试图为此开脱，称当时是“随口一说”。他对福克斯资讯的Sean Hannity表示曾经私下为此争论过，称战争会使中东失去稳定局面，但目前为止我们找不到证据支持这一论述。不过，在战争开始以后，他的确开始表达质疑了。 |
