美國台灣觀測站EP121 - 美國警告中國廉價商品傾銷疑慮；拜登仇恨值比川普高？本週首先聚焦地震。上週強震後，台灣受到全球的關注，顯示了台灣在全球供應鏈的重要性外。在許多外媒報導中，強調著台灣為地震做的良好準備，因此這回地震損傷不大。台灣過去幾年的檢討與準備確實值得我們肯定與驕傲，不過觀測站也要提醒，這次的地震震央位在東部沿海，若鄰近大城市，災情可能將相當嚴重，因此台灣仍舊要持續做好準備，強化我們的防災韌性。
上週副總統當選人蕭美琴低調出訪歐洲，根據報導，蕭美琴訪問捷克時，有中國大使館車輛從機場一路尾隨，甚至差點因闖紅燈釀車禍。本集將從這起事件看中國對台灣的長期外交施壓，並來反思台灣媒體、政治人物對此的態度。
上週，拜習兩人也再次通話，與此同時，美國財政部長葉倫訪問中國，並在訪問期間警告中國不要透過生產廉價商品提振自身經濟，她說如果政策只以創造供給為導向，不以創造需求為導向，就會造成全球外溢效應。觀測站將透過這個機會聊聊近期華爾街日報的「中國衝擊2.0」報導，並推薦由兩位華爾街日報資深記者，Bob Davis和魏玲靈（Lingling Wei）撰寫的《大國攤牌》（Superpower Showdown）一書，思考中國的出口暴增可能如何影響全球經濟。
美國新聞的部分，來和大家分享幾件趣事，共和黨提案把華府的Dulles機場改以川普命名，接著民主黨就提案把佛羅里達監獄改名為川普監獄，而在兩黨吵來吵去時，一名德州七年級數學老師，為了表達對拜登跟川普兩位總統候選人的不滿，把自己改名為Literally Anybody Else（真的任何人都可以），並鼓勵選民在選票上寫「Literally Anybody Else」。當然除了這些有趣的新聞外，我們也會分享最新的民調，以及聊聊不同族裔的選票登記差異，和背後的結構性問題。
