GOP Debate Marked by Infighting as Candidates Get Personal in Opening Round_我的网站

Republican presidential contenders traded nasty, sometimes personal barbs at the 2024 campaign season's first primary debate, ignoring the debate time-limit bell to shout over each other and accuse each other of dishonesty and a lack of presidential qualifications.
But if anyone prevailed at the debate, it was someone who wasn't there: former president and current front-runner Donald Trump, who had the debate audience booing candidates who criticized him and cheering those who defended him.
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie was the most aggressive in his blunt assessment of Trump, who is set to turn himself into authorities for processing Thursday in Georgia’s Fulton County on racketeering and other charges related to the effort to take away President Joe Biden's 2020 win in Georgia and give it to Trump.
"Someone's got to stop normalizing this conduct. Whether or not you believe the criminal charges are right or wrong, the conduct is beneath the office of the president of the United States," Christie said in a lengthy response that at one point was stopped by overwhelming boos from the live audience.
When 38-year-old tech entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy – who spent much of the evening needling his opponents like they were annoying parents who think they know more – jumped in to accuse Christie of running "a campaign … based on vengeance and grievance against one man," the former Garden State governor and onetime prosecutor turned his ire on Ramaswamy.
"You sit here talking about how you want to stand up for the rule of law. It can't be selective," Christie said, adding that Ramaswamy says different things about Trump in his book than he says while campaigning before a GOP electorate still very attached to the former president.
"I know a lot better than you do. You've never done it," Christie said. "We stood up for law and order. I am not going to bow to anyone when we have a president of the United States who disrespects the Constitution."
At one point, the boos and jeers became so loud Christie could not speak. "Booing is allowed, but it doesn't change the truth," he said. Moderator Bret Baier had to physically turn around in his seat and admonish the crowd to be quiet, while fellow moderator Martha McCallum tried to keep the candidates from drowning each other out.
Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson got no love either from the crowd when he said Trump was "morally disqualified" from being president again. "Obviously, I'm not going to support someone who's been convicted of a serious felony," said Hutchinson, whose extensive resume in all three branches of government has not gotten him above low single digits in primary polls.
Former Vice President Mike Pence made the issue more about his own behavior on Jan. 6, 2021, saying he did what was legally and morally right in refusing to reject the electoral slates sent to Washington to certify Biden's win.
"No one is above the law, and President Trump is entitled to the presumption of innocence every American is entitled to," Pence said. "But the American people deserve to know that ... he asked me to put him above the Constitution. I chose the Constitution and I always will."
Former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley stayed above the fray in a debate that descended into a political food fight. She confidently displayed her foreign policy credentials, knocking down opponents who said the U.S. should cut off aid to Ukraine.
She noted her strong anti-abortion position but said the rest of the field needed to be “honest” with the American public and let them know a national ban was not in the works because it would never survive a Senate filibuster. And she blamed her own party as well as Democrats for running up the public debt.
Still, Trump is far and away the favorite to win the GOP nomination. A Des Moines Register/NBC poll released this week had Trump with the support of 42% of Iowa Republicans, with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis a distant second, with 19% support. The remaining candidates on stage Wednesday night, including Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina, Pence, Haley, Ramaswamy, Christie and Hutchinson, all had support in the single digits.
North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum got just 2% in the poll and his condition at the debate – forced to stand for two hours despite having badly injured his leg while he was playing basketball Monday – seemed to underscore his wounded status.
"I think I took it too literally when they said, ‘Go to Milwaukee and break a leg,'" Burgum said in arguably his most memorable line of the night.
DeSantis, who has struggled in the polls in recent weeks, talked about his signature issues, such as eliminating discussion of certain racial and gender issues in schools but did not do anything to establish himself in his earlier role as back-up choice to Trump.
Ramaswamy has edged into second place in a couple of polls, ahead of a flagging DeSantis, and the debate dynamic reflected it. Buoyed by his emergence from unknown to candidate-of-the-hour, Ramaswamy confidently slammed his opponents for their positions, their character and even their age, saying Americans needed a new generation of leadership.
The rest of the group was having none of it.
"Let me explain it to you. I can go slower for you this time," sneered the usually decorous Pence, when Ramaswamy criticized his policies. "Now is not the time for on-the-job-training, We don't need to bring in a rookie," the former vice president added.
Ramaswamy cast himself as an outsider, saying, "The real choice we face in this primary is this: Do we want a super PAC puppet or do you want a patriot who speaks the truth?"
Ramaswamy dismissed a young voter's question about climate change, saying more people had been injured from "bad climate change policies" than climate change itself, which he called “a hoax.” He accused his opponents of unspecified corruption, saying, "I'm the only person on this stage who isn't bought and paid for."
Christie noted that Ramaswamy's comment about being the "skinny guy" with a "funny name" was almost word for word what Democratic President Barack Obama said when he was first running for president.
"I'm afraid we're dealing with the same kind of amateur,” Christie said.
Scott, who underscored his anti-abortion credentials and commitment to reducing government, urged a conversation on issues.
"Going back and forth and (being) childish is not helpful to the American people," Scott said.
Haley, exasperated by interruptions and escalating voices from much of the rest of the stage, noted, "This is exactly why [former British Prime Minister] Margaret Thatcher said, 'If you want something said, ask a man. If you want something done, ask a woman.’" It was one of the few comments Haley could get in, edgewise, during the raucous debate.
。 许多饮食选择许多公共卫生组织和机构推荐以植物为基础的地中海饮食,这样能帮助保护一个人的健康尤其是心脏病预防方面。同样,过去对间歇性禁食的研究也将其跟某些有益效果联系起来,包括延缓衰老和减轻体重。当谈到能保护一个人健康的最佳整体饮食时实际上还存在许多问题。一个人应该完全从他们的饮食中去除动物产品吗?还是只吃肉?或吃一些动物产品来避免微量营养素缺乏这件事情也很重要?《美国心脏病学院期刊》发表了一篇新的累积性综述,该研究对现有数据进行了分析并发现将改良的地中海饮食--叫Pesco-Mediterranean--跟间歇性禁食相结合可能是长期保护健康的最佳方式。改良最流行的饮食选项Pesco-Mediterranean饮食注重特级初榨橄榄油(EVOO),而不摄入其他脂肪包括黄油。这种未经提炼的橄榄油--前提是正宗的产品--被认为在许多方面具备了促进健康尤其是心脏和大脑健康的作用。此外,这种改良的饮食还包括树坚果、富含其他健康脂肪以及鱼类和海鲜、豆类、橄榄、蔬菜、水果和全谷物。然而针对鸡蛋和奶制品仍是一个非常棘手的问题,专家们仍不能就这两种食品对健康有益还是有害达成一致意见。在这种情况下,研究人员注意到鸡蛋和奶制品可以在合理的范围内加入到改良饮食中。鸡蛋的数量应控制在每周不超过五个蛋黄;乳制品应限制低脂的选择,并且最好避免黄油和硬奶酪。少许禁食至于间歇性禁食,这种饮食方案包括在一定的时间内禁食,它将一个人的进食时间限制在一个特定的时间框架内。这项新研究的论文主要作者James H. O 'Keefe医学博士指出:“我们远古的祖先没有办法一年四季获得无限量的食物供应。他们也不习惯每天吃三顿大餐外加零食。多吃新鲜的天然食物再加上鱼对健康有很多好处,尤其是对心血管健康。每天有时间限制的地中海饮食是一种理想的心脏保护饮食。”根据过去的一些研究和试验,将Pesco-Mediterranean饮食跟间歇性禁食相结合还可能会降低认知能力下降、心脏病、糖尿病、某些癌症和抑郁症的风险。
