这位副总统养成了说脏话、道歉并引起人们注意自己言辞的习惯。并不是所有人都相信这是即兴发挥。
The vice president has made a habit of swearing, apologizing and calling attention to his own language. Not everyone is convinced it's spontaneous.
上个月在北卡罗来纳州面对人群演讲时，副总统万斯口误道：“我们需要一个敢于回击‘放屁左翼（fart left）’的人，”随后他纠正自己，说他指的是“极左翼（far left）”。
Speaking before a crowd in North Carolina last month, Vice President JD Vance stumbled: “We need somebody who will fight back against the fart left,” he said, then corrected himself, saying he meant the “far left.”
他本可以继续发表演讲。但他停了下来。“你们甚至可能都没听清，”他对人群说，然后重复了这句话并誓言这是一个意外。“所以对于那些指责我使用粗俗语言的假新闻，我向你们保证，我不是故意称他们为‘放屁左翼’的。”这种“先说一句带点颜色的词，接着再道歉”的两步走策略——有时是对着房间里的儿童，有时是对着他的妻子乌莎——已经成为万斯竞选演讲中一个半规律性的特点，特别是在过去六个月里，POLITICO对他的部分公开讲话进行的审阅就发现了五起这样的事例。
He could have kept going with his remarks. Instead, he stopped. “You may not have even heard that,” he told the crowd, then repeated the phrase and swore it was an accident. “So to the fake news who will accuse me of bad language, I promise I did not mean to call them the fart left.”This one-two step — say something off color followed by an apologia, sometimes to any children in the room, sometimes to his wife Usha — has become a semi-regular feature of Vance’s campaign speeches especially over the past six months, during which a POLITICO review of a sampling of his public remarks turned up five instances.
今年早些时候在俄亥俄州——发生了第六起事例——他说的是“懦夫的狗屁（cowardly bullshit）”，随后向听众中的孩子们道了歉。
In Ohio earlier this year — a sixth instance — it was “cowardly bullshit,” followed by an apology to the kids in the audience.
