來自美國白宮的鼓勵
台灣大罷免之後，白宮突然在X平台發文，分享已故美總統老羅斯福（Theodore Roosevelt）曾說過的話：
「真正重要的不是那些只會批評的人，也不是那些只會指出別人哪裡做錯、哪裡做得不夠好的人。真正值得敬佩的，是那些親自踏入戰場，即便臉上滿是灰塵、汗水與鮮血，仍然奮勇向前的人。他們努力嘗試，即使一次又一次的犯錯、跌倒，也從不放棄，因為任何行動都難免伴隨著錯誤與缺點。」
「他們是真正為理想而奮鬥的人，擁有熱情和投入的精神，他們願意為值得追求的目標付出一切。這樣的人如果成功，將體驗到最崇高的榮耀；即使失敗，至少他們曾經勇敢拚搏過，不會跟那些從未嘗試、從未體會過勝利或失敗滋味的膽小冷漠之輩站在一起。」
—美國總統 老羅斯福
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
–President Theodore Roosevelt
