跟进：拜登新书公开特朗普2021年手写信全文：称「我知道你多么热爱美国人民」
美国前总统拜登将在下周二出版的回忆录《Promise Me, America》中，首次全文刊出特朗普2021年1月20日离任当天留在白宫椭圆形办公室、写给他的手写私人信。《纽约时报》11月10日刊出该书节选，并核对了原信的复印件，这封保密近六年的信就此公开。
这封信写在白宫信纸上，用的是特朗普标志性的黑色记号笔，信封上写着「致46」，指拜登是美国第46任总统。信中没有批评拜登，也没有质疑2020年大选结果，语气与特朗普当时对拜登的公开言论截然不同。
特朗普在信中写道，许多总统来来去去，只是以共和党人或民主党人的身份执政，大多没有改变历史，只是被历史的潮流推着走。他对拜登说，你不会如此，因为「我知道你多么热爱美国人民」。他还以近乎抒情的笔调写自己在白宫工作的感受，并表示相信拜登会忠于自己、忠于美国人民。
拜登上任第一周就对记者说过，前任给他留了一封「非常慷慨的信」，但此后多年一直拒绝谈信的内容。他在新书中写道，这封信让他觉得「仿佛有两个 Donald Trump」：特朗普在公开场合「深刻动摇了民主」，却又在这封信里以老朋友般温暖的措辞送上祝福，令他意外。

Biden Memoir Reveals Trump's Full 2021 Handwritten Letter: 'I Know How Much You Love the American People'
Former President Joe Biden's forthcoming memoir 'Promise Me, America,' to be released next Tuesday, reprints in full for the first time the handwritten private letter Donald Trump left for him in the Oval Office on January 20, 2021, the day Trump left office after his first term. The New York Times published an excerpt of the book on November 10 and reviewed a photocopy of the original letter, bringing the nearly six-year-old secret into the open.
The letter was written on White House stationery in Trump's signature black Sharpie, in an envelope addressed 'To 46,' a reference to Biden as the 46th president. It does not criticize Biden or challenge the results of the 2020 election, and its tone is sharply at odds with Trump's public comments about Biden at the time.
Trump wrote that many presidents have come and gone who simply governed as Republicans or Democrats, largely did not change history and were swept along in its tide. He told Biden that would not happen to him 'because I know how much you love the American people.' He also wrote almost poetically about his experience working in the White House, and said he believed Biden would be true to himself and to the American people.
In his first week in office, Biden told reporters his predecessor had left him a 'very generous letter,' but he then refused for years to discuss its contents. In the book, Biden writes that the letter made it seem 'as if there were two Donald Trumps': Trump, he writes, 'deeply destabilized democracy' in public, yet here he was offering his best wishes in warm language that sounded like it was coming from an old friend.
