If he ever enjoyed Taylor Swift’s music, President Donald Trump now likes the pop star’s tracks "about 25% less."
如果美国·总统以前喜欢泰勒·斯威夫特的音乐的话,那么现在他对她的音乐的喜爱程度“减少了约25%”。
Trump struck out at Swift a day after the singer and longtime Nashville resident endorsed Democratic candidate Phil Bredesen, a former governor, over Republican Rep. Marsha Blackburn in Tennessee’s Senate race.
这名歌手兼长期纳什维尔居民近日表示,在田纳西州参议院竞选中支持民主党候选人菲尔·布雷德森(前州长),而不是共和党众议员玛莎·布莱克,特朗普因此批评斯威夫特。
"What’d she say?" Trump said with a smile when he was asked about Swift’s comments on Tennessee politics, walking back toward reporters on the White House’s South Lawn after hearing the pop star’s name shouted at him.
当时特朗普向着白宫南草坪的记者走去,记者对他大声喊泰勒·斯威夫特的名字,并问他对斯威夫特的言论作何评价,特朗普问到:“她说了什么?”
After being told Swift announced her opposition to Blackburn and endorsed Bredesen, Trump offered quick praise for Blackburn, who he said "is doing a very good job in Tennessee."
在被告知斯威夫特宣布反对布莱克本并支持布雷德森之后,特朗普迅速对布莱克本表示了的称赞,称她“在田纳西州的工作做得非常好”。
And then he served Swift with a diss.
然后他贬损斯威夫特。
"I’m sure Taylor Swift has nothing -- or doesn’t know anything about her (Blackurn)," Trump said.
特朗普说:“我确信泰勒·斯威夫特对她(布莱克本)一无所知。”
And then he added, with a laugh: "Let’s say that I like Taylor’s music about 25% less now, OK?"
然后他笑着说道:“这样说吧,我对泰勒的音乐的喜爱现在减少了25%,好吗?”
Swift endorsed both Bredesen and Rep. Jim Cooper, a Democrat who is running for re-election to the House, in an Instagram post on Sunday, breaking from her longstanding reluctance to weigh in on politics.
斯威夫特在周日的一篇Instagram帖子中支持布雷德森和正在竞选连任众议院民主党的众议员吉姆·库珀,此前她一直不愿意公开讨论政治。
"In the past I’ve been reluctant to publicly voice my political opinions, but due to several events in my life and in the world in the past two years, I feel very differently about that now," she wrote in the post.
“在过去,我一直不愿公开表达我的政治观点,但由于过去两年我生活中以及世界上发生的几件事,让我现在对此抱着大不相同的看法,”她在帖子中写道。
Her post focused on her opposition to Blackburn, whose voting record Swift said "appalls and terrifies me."
她的帖子集中说明了她对布莱克本的反对,斯威夫特说布莱克本的投票记录“让我震惊和恐惧。”
"She voted against equal pay for women. She voted against the Reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act, which attempts to protect women from domestic violence, stalking, and date rape. She believes businesses have a right to refuse service to gay couples. She also believes they should not have the right to marry. These are not MY Tennessee values. I will be voting for Phil Bredesen for Senate and Jim Cooper for House of Representatives," Swift wrote.
“她投票反对女性同工同酬。她投票反对‘反对暴力侵害妇女行为法案’,该法案旨在保护妇女免受家庭暴力,跟踪和约会强奸。她认为企业有权拒绝为同性恋夫妇提供服务。他们也认为他们不应该有结婚的权利。这不是我的田纳西州价值观。我将投票支持参议院的菲尔·布雷德森为参议院和众议院的吉姆·库克。”斯威夫特写道。
