Given the current state of polarization in US politics, I think it is likely that in most other settings, my tablemates would not willingly have bought several rounds of beer for someone who spent two years working at the State Department for Hillary Clinton. Here, though, we were cheering not for our political side, but for our national side.
如今，美国政治极化严重，因此，我想要不是世界杯，我的这两位拼桌朋友是不会愿意请我这位在国务院为希拉里·克林顿卖了两年命的人喝掉好几轮啤酒的。但是，在这里，我们不为政治立场而欢呼，而是为国家队喝彩。美国队在球场上奋斗，政治滚得远远的。
