特朗普抨击墨西哥裔法官惹众怒
The Republican party’s unease over Donald Trump as its presidential candidate broke into the open yesterday as Hillary Clinton made history by becoming the first woman to sew up the Democratic nomination.
美国共和党对唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)成为本党总统候选人的担忧昨日公开化，同时希拉里•克林顿(Hillary Clinton)成为美国历史上首位获得民主党总统候选人提名的女性。
Mrs Clinton’s accomplishment in securing the 2,383 delegates she needs to become her party’s candidate was overshadowed by swelling rancour within Republican ranks over Mr Trump’s attacks on a Hispanic-American judge overseeing a lawsuit against now-defunct Trump University. The billionaire businessman has accused Judge Gonzalo Curiel of being biased because of his Mexican heritage.
希拉里成功获得了候选人提名所需的2383张选举人票，但比这一成就更引人瞩目的是，对于特朗普抨击一名负责审理现已不再运营的“特朗普大学”(Trump University)案件的西语裔美国法官，共和党人士纷纷表示不满。这位亿万富翁商人指责贡萨洛•库列尔(Gonzalo Curiel)法官因其墨西哥血统而存在偏见。
House Speaker Paul Ryan attempted to distance himself from Mr Trump, criticising the businessman’s comments in forthright terms. “Claiming a person can’t do their job because of their race is sort of like the textbook definition of a racist comment,” Mr Ryan said.
众议院议长保罗•瑞安(Paul Ryan)试图与特朗普划清界限，他直言不讳地批评了特朗普的言论。瑞安表示：“宣称一个人因其种族而无法胜任工作，有些像是教科书定义的种族主义言论。”
The acrimony within the Republican camp handed further momentum to Mrs Clinton just as she was finally emerging victorious from a bruising primary campaign against Bernie Sanders, the Vermont senator, and preparing to bring her fire to bear fully on Mr Trump.
共和党阵营内部的恶言相向为希拉里提供了进一步的动能。希拉里恰好终于在与佛蒙特州参议员伯尼•桑德斯(Bernie Sanders)的激烈初选中胜出，准备与特朗普展开全面较量。
Mr Ryan, who endorsed Mr Trump’s candidacy only last week, said his comments about Judge Curiel were “absolutely unacceptable”.
瑞安上周刚支持特朗普竞选总统。他表示，特朗普关于库列尔的言论“完全让人无法接受”。
More than half a dozen leading Republican figures have publicly disavowed Mr Trump’s remarks and Mr Ryan’s verdict underlined the deep concern among Republicans about the damage Mr Trump’s comments could do to their standing among the increasingly powerful Latino electorate.
至少6名共和党大佬公开表示特朗普的言论不代表他们的立场，瑞安的声明突显出，在拉美裔选民影响力日益上升之际，共和党内部对特朗普言论对该党人气可能造成的破坏深感忧虑。
