    罗姆尼在宣誓就职前两天发布了该文章,这个时机引起人们猜测他会在共和党总统候选人提名上将自己定位为特朗普的挑战者。

    在这篇文章中,罗姆尼赞扬了特朗普的许多政策,例如他的税制改革和任命保守派法官。

    But he went on to say: "With the nation so divided, resentful and angry, presidential leadership in qualities of character is indispensable. And it is in this province where the incumbent's shortfall has been most glaring."

    但他接着说:“由于国家如此分裂、怨恨和愤怒,总统在品质方面的领导力是不可或缺的。而现任总统在这个方面的不足最为明显。”
