美国总统唐纳德·川普（Donald J. Trump）今日在Truth Social连续发帖，分别展示白宫新建筑群建设进展，并批评美联储总部大楼长期翻修工程。两篇帖文形成鲜明对比，引发关注。
U.S. President Donald J. Trump posted consecutively on Truth Social today, showcasing the progress of the new White House complex construction while criticizing the prolonged renovation of the Federal Reserve headquarters building. The two posts form a sharp contrast and have drawn attention.
川普总统在一篇帖文中配发白宫工地照片，写道：
In one post, President Trump shared a photo of the White House construction site and wrote:
“白宫地面正在建设的宏伟大厅/军事综合体已取得巨大进展！总统们和所有人150年来都想要这个。它将为白宫和整个华盛顿特区提供强大的国家安全。工程预算内完成，且进度超前！大厅将由美国伟大爱国者和公司全额支付，零纳税人资金。 总统唐纳德·J·川普。”
“Tremendous work has been done on the magnificent BALLROOM/MILITARY COMPLEX being built on the grounds of the White House! Presidents have wanted this for 150 years, and so has everyone else. It will give the White House, and all of D.C., Great National Security. The Project is under budget, and ahead of schedule! The Ballroom will be paid for with ZERO Dollars of Taxpayer Money. Great American Patriots and Companies are footing the entire bill. President DONALD J. TRUMP.”
帖文强调该项目（Ballroom/Military Complex）进度超前、预算控制良好，并完全由私人捐赠和公司出资，不花纳税人一分钱。川普总统称其兼具国家礼宾与安全功能，是长期被期盼的工程。
The post emphasized that the project (Ballroom/Military Complex) is ahead of schedule, under budget, and fully funded by private donations and companies with zero taxpayer money. President Trump described it as a long-awaited project that serves both national ceremonial and security functions.
几乎同时，川普总统转发一张美联储大楼施工现场照片，配文简单直接：
Almost simultaneously, President Trump shared a photo of the Federal Reserve Building construction site with a simple and direct caption:
“The Fed Building
When will it ever end?”
（美联储大楼
这到底什么时候才能结束？）
照片显示大楼外立面仍有起重机和施工围挡，工程已持续多年。川普总统此前多次公开批评该翻修项目预算从约19亿美元膨胀至25亿甚至更高，工期一再拖延，预计要到2027年左右才能完成，并曾与美联储主席鲍威尔当面争执成本问题。
The photo shows cranes and construction barriers still present on the building’s exterior, indicating the project has been ongoing for years. President Trump has repeatedly publicly criticized the renovation, noting that the budget has ballooned from about $1.9 billion to $2.5 billion or even higher, with repeated delays, and is not expected to be completed until around 2027. He has also clashed face-to-face with Fed Chair Jerome Powell over the costs.
川普总统对美联储大楼工程的公开不满，也呼应了外界对美联储内部政治倾向的长期质疑。有研究显示，美联储系统内经济学家的选民登记和政治捐款中，民主党支持者比例远高于共和党（部分分析显示比例超过10比1）。这让不少保守派认为，美联储在人员构成和文化氛围上明显偏左，进而影响其决策风格和对社会议题的介入程度。川普总统本人也多次公开批评现任主席鲍威尔及美联储，认为其政策未能充分配合美国经济议程。公众调查同样显示，多数共和党倾向的选民认为美联储偏向民主党。
President Trump’s public dissatisfaction with the Fed Building project also echoes long-standing external questions about the Federal Reserve’s internal political leanings. Studies have shown that among economists in the Federal Reserve System, the proportion of Democratic supporters in voter registration and political donations is far higher than that of Republicans (some analyses show a ratio exceeding 10 to 1). This has led many conservatives to believe that the Fed’s personnel composition and cultural atmosphere lean significantly left, which in turn affects its decision-making style and involvement in social issues. President Trump himself has repeatedly publicly criticized current Chair Powell and the Fed, arguing that their policies have not adequately aligned with the U.S. economic agenda. Public surveys also show that a majority of Republican-leaning voters believe the Fed favors the Democratic Party.
两篇帖文发布时机正值川普总统为中期选举造势、强调政府效率与财政支出的关键阶段。一边是白宫新工程展现“私人出资、进度超前、提升安全”的正面范例；另一边的美联储大楼则凸显“拖沓、超支、无休无止”的负面对比，不得不让外界进一步质疑美联储机构本身的问题。
The timing of the two posts coincides with President Trump’s midterm election campaigning and his emphasis on government efficiency and fiscal spending. On one side, the White House new project presents a positive example of “privately funded, ahead of schedule, and enhancing security”; on the other side, the Fed Building highlights the negative contrast of being “protracted, over-budget, and endless,” forcing outsiders to further question the Federal Reserve institution itself.
