"Sell somebody out" nghĩa là phản bội ai.
Ví dụ
“I tried to cooperate with them until he tried to sell me out," Stragaj told the judge. "I’m going to sit next to him on the chair, so I’ve got no choice. But as far as trusting him and working with him, I’m not.”
“Great officer,” Ross said. “He left over decisions that were being made in other states in regard to police officers being charged, and felt like, 'I don’t want to put my family’s future and my future and career on the line for some politician to sell me out whenever it’s convenient to do so.'"
A candidate’s attitudes toward “people like me” thus become a powerful heuristic. If a candidate generally likes people like me, then it seems plausible (hợp lý) that he will look out for my interests in a wide range of scenarios. If he dislikes people like me—if he would hate sharing a beer with me, and secretly thinks I’m trash—then he is far more likely to sell me out.
