回复 'flowers2288' 的评论 : 有些人的逻辑就是有问题:你不是政治家就不能谈政治,你不是总统就不能评价总统。很难和他们争辩。

Your insinuation is completely off the mark. He made his demands in an official capacity. Before Donald Trump became president, he had also made a lot of wild comments on politics but no one cared because he was the president. However, once he became a president, the very same wild utterances would make him the target of strong criticism. If you fail to see the connection, I see that you have a logic problem. By the way, I for one would strong advise against any form of deification of mere mortals because those fantastic claims that create the mystic aura around an otherwise faulty mortal often cannot stand minute scrutiny.

回复 'sufficient' 的评论 : 他有没当总理何必以总理的标准衡量他。

I fail to see your rationale. If you are not a scientist and you are trying to fashion yourself as a scientist, people will so judge you. Likewise, he is not a politician nor, based on what he said, a social scientist either, but he was trying to fashion himself to be either or both. He would be so treated. It was obvious that it was not his forte and he thus wisely retreated from it.
I must say that I respect his sincerity but question his judgments. At the end, he was wise enough to stick with what he knew best, science and research.
