（TNND） - 白宮新聞秘書卡羅琳·萊維特（Karoline Leavitt）向記者推薦唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）是否利用他的立場來獲利。

週五，白宮簡報的一名記者詢問特朗普為何計劃本月與頂級投資者一起參加他的模因硬幣的晚宴。

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt found it “frankly ridiculous” to suggest President Trump is doing anything in his official capacity to benefit himself.

新聞秘書卡羅琳·利維特（Karoline Leavitt）發現，特朗普總統正在以正式能力為自己受益的任何事情“坦率地荒謬”。

"He left a life of luxury and a life of running a very successful real estate empire for public service not just once but twice," Leavitt said Friday at the White House briefing. "And, again, the American public reelected him back to this White House, because they trust he acts in the best interest of our country and putting the American public first. This is a president who has actually lost money for being president of the United States. I don't remember these same type of questions being asked of my predecessor about a career politician who was clearly profiting off of this office. That is not what President Trump does, and this White House holds itself to the highest of ethical standards."

萊維特週五在白宮簡報上說：“他留下了奢侈的生活，不僅兩次，而且兩次都經營著一個非常成功的房地產帝國的生活。”同樣，美國公眾再次將他送回了這座白​​宮，因為他們相信他是為了我國的最大利益並將美國公眾推定的首要。

Trump is visiting Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar next week.

特朗普下週將訪問沙特阿拉伯，阿拉伯聯合酋長國和卡塔爾。

Leavitt said he’ll be seeking “cooperative relationships” and “commerce and cultural exchanges” in place of “extremism.”

利維特說，他將尋求“合作關係”和“商業和文化交流”，以代替“極端主義”。

Trump will also meet with U.S. troops in Qatar.

特朗普還將在卡塔爾與美軍會面。

Leavitt touted the newly announced trade deal with the United Kingdom.

利維特吹捧了與英國新宣布的貿易協議。

She said American companies would gain “unprecedented access to the U.K. markets.”

她說，美國公司將獲得“前所未有的進入英國市場”。

And she said the deal will offer billions in new opportunities for American farmers, ranchers and producers.

她說，這筆交易將為美國農民，牧場主和生產商提供數十億美元的新機會。

Trump agreed on Thursday to cut tariffs on U.K. autos, steel and aluminum. But the 10% baseline tariff on U.K. products would remain.

特朗普週四同意削減對英國汽車，鋼鐵和鋁的關稅。但是英國產品的10％基線關稅仍將保留。

“All of this happened because of President Trump's implementation of powerful tariffs to end the era of economic surrender and rebalance America's trading agreements,” Leavitt said.

萊維特說：“這一切都是由於特朗普總統實施強大的關稅，以結束經濟投降和重新平衡美國的貿易協定時代。”

Leavitt said Trump is committed to the baseline 10% tariff.

萊維特說，特朗普承諾簽署10％的關稅。

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will meet in Switzerland this weekend with Chinese economic officials.

財政部長Scott Bessent和美國貿易代表Jamieson Greer將在本週末與中國經濟官員在瑞士開會。

Trump has suggested that he’s open to lowering the tariffs on Chinese imports from 145% to 80%.

特朗普建議他願意將中國進口的關稅從145％降低到80％。

“The president has said, and he's right, China needs the United States of America. They need our markets. They need our consumer base,” Leavitt told reporters.

利維特對記者說：“總統說，他是對的，中國需要美利堅合眾國。他們需要我們的市場。他們需要我們的消費者基礎。”

Leavitt said Trump won’t bring down Chinese tariffs without concessions from China, however.

利維特說，如果沒有中國的讓步，特朗普就不會降低中國的關稅。

Trump on Friday morning said via social media that he was “OK” if Republicans in Congress move to slightly increase taxes on the rich. But Trump said that’s probably not what GOP members should do.

特朗普週五早上通過社交媒體說，如果國會中的共和黨人稍微增加富人的稅收，他就“還可以”。但是特朗普說，這可能不是共和黨成員應該做的。

Leavitt said Trump “personally would not mind paying a little bit more to help the poor and the middle class and the working class in this country.”

利維特說，特朗普“個人不介意付出更多的錢來幫助窮人，中產階級和這個國家的工人階級。”

But she said the president’s main goal is to extend and expand the 2017 tax cuts via the reconciliation bill working its way through Congress now.

但她說，總統的主要目標是通過現在通過國會進行和解法案擴大和擴大2017年減稅法案。

Leavitt struck a positive tone when asked for Trump’s reaction to Pope Leo XIV’s past social media posts that were critical of some Trump actions or policies.

當被問及特朗普對教皇獅子座過去的社交媒體帖子的反應時，萊維特提出了積極的基調，這些帖子批評特朗普的某些行動或政策。

“The president made his reaction to Pope Leo's announcement yesterday very clear. He is very proud to have an American pope,” Leavitt said. “I think it was a surprise to everyone. ... But it's a great thing for the United States of America and for the world, and we are praying for him.”

萊維特說：“總統昨天對獅子座的宣布做出了反應。他為擁有美國教皇感到非常自豪。” “我認為這對每個人都是一個驚喜。……但是，這對美利堅合眾國和世界來說是一件很棒的事情，我們正在為他祈禱。”

Leavitt said Trump is seeking a fast de-escalation in the fighting between India and Pakistan.

萊維特說，特朗普正在尋求在印度和巴基斯坦之間的戰鬥中快速降級。

She mentioned the Trump administration wants to pay illegal immigrants to self-deport, saying it would save taxpayers money.

她提到特朗普政府想向非法移民付錢給自欺欺人，稱這將為納稅人的錢節省金錢。

“If illegal aliens make the right decision here and submit their intent to depart through the CBP Home app and pass extensive vetting, they will be temporarily deprioritized for ICE detention and enforcement action before their scheduled departure,” Leavitt added.

Leavitt補充說：“如果非法外國人在這裡做出正確的決定，並提出了通過CBP Home App出發並通過廣泛的審查的意圖，那麼他們將在預定離開之前暫時剝奪冰拘留和執法行動。”

First Lady Melania Trump secured a $25 million investment in her husband’s 2026 budget request to provide housing and support for youth transitioning out of foster care.

第一夫人梅拉尼亞·特朗普（Melania Trump）在丈夫的2026年預算請求中獲得了2500萬美元的投資，以提供住房和對青年過渡的支持。

Leavitt said there was no operational impact when the air traffic control system that guides planes in and out of the Newark, New Jersey, airport went down overnight for the second time in two weeks.

萊維特說，當引導飛機進出新澤西州紐瓦克的空中交通管制系統時，機場在兩週內第二次過夜時，沒有運營影響。

She blamed the glitch on preexisting telecom and software issues.

她將故障歸咎於已經存在的電信和軟件問題。

“DOT and the FAA are working to address this technical issue tonight to prevent further outages, as well as install new fiber from Newark airport to Philadelphia,” Leavitt said. “And the goal is to have the totality of this work done by the end of the summer. I want to add that this outage at Newark airport speaks to why the secretary of transportation yesterday made a massive announcement in investing in our aviation safety, in our telecom system.”

Leavitt說：“ DOT和FAA今晚正在努力解決這一技術問題，以防止進一步的停電，並將新的纖維從紐瓦克機場到費城安裝。” “目的是在夏季結束之前完成這項工作的全部。我想補充一點，紐瓦克機場的這種停電錶明，為什麼昨天昨天，交通部長昨天在我們的電信系統中投資了我們的航空安全。”

Trump fired Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden – a move decried by congressional Democrats.

特朗普解雇了國會圖書館員卡拉·海登（Carla Hayden） - 國會民主黨人譴責的舉動。

When asked about that firing, Leavitt said that Hayden “did not fit the needs of the American people.”

當被問及開火時，利維特說海登“不符合美國人民的需求。”

“There were quite concerning things that she had done at the Library of Congress in the pursuit of DEI and putting

“有很多關於她在國會圖書館追求Dei並提出的事情
