在周二的新闻发布会上，特朗普总统多次对一名记者发火，质问他是否“患了病”，随后，白宫官方社交媒体账号发布了一条针对唐氏综合征患者的侮辱性用语来形容这名记者。
After President Donald Trump snapped at a reporter multiple times during a Tuesday press conference, questioning whether he was “a sick person,” an official White House social media account posted a slur used against people with Down syndrome to describe the reporter. “What’s wrong with you? Are you a sick person?”
“你到底怎么了？你是个病人吗？”特朗普尖锐地问道，对象是《独立报》白宫记者安德鲁·费因伯格。“我其实觉得你有问题。”
Trump pointedly asked Andrew Feinberg, the ’s White House correspondent. “I actually think there’s something wrong with you.”@POTUS absolutely roasts Mongoloid Moron @AndrewFeinberg for his disgraceful behavior:
@POTUS 彻底羞辱了“蒙古白痴”@AndrewFeinberg因为他可耻的行为：“你到底怎么了？你是个病人吗？我其实觉得你有问题。” 2026年10月20日特朗普发表这番言论之前，费因伯格开始询问他关于关闭华盛顿特区一座历史悠久的高尔夫球场长达15个月、以便进行翻修工程使其具备举办国际赛事能力的计划。此前，当费因伯格询问他的“欺诈举报人激励计划”时，特朗普明显表现出了不耐烦。该计划将给予举报人其举报协助查明的欺诈金额的1%作为奖励，上限为3万美元。
"What's wrong with you? Are you a sick person? I actually think there's something wrong with you." October 20, 2026 The president made the remark after Feinberg began to ask about his plans to close down a historic Washington, DC, golf course for 15 months in a remodeling project to make a facility capable of hosting international competitions. Previously, Trump grew visibly frustrated when Feinberg asked him about his Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program which will give individuals a one percent of the monetary amount of fraud their tip helps uncover with a cap of $30,000.
费恩伯格说：“《虚假申报法》自1863年颁布以来，举报人可获得10%至25%的奖金。为什么有真实欺诈证据的人会去——”“因为钱很多，”特朗普打断道。“而且当他们那样做时，那是某种特定类型的犯罪。但没人想到你能偷走2万亿美元，无论最终数字是多少。按1%计算，人们举报某种程度上属于常规犯罪的行为就能赚到数百万美元。”
“The False Claims Act, which has been on the books since 1863, whistleblowers can get between 10 and 25%,” Feinberg said. “Why would someone who has evidence of genuine fraud go to—”“Because it’s a lot of money,” Trump interrupted. “And because when they did that, that’s a certain type of crime. But nobody ever thought that you could have stolen $2 trillion or whatever the ultimate number is going to be. And at 1 percent, people will make millions and millions of dollars for turning in what actually is a somewhat routine crime.”
当天，特朗普政府一直在努力改变“欺诈”的定义以使自身受益，向右翼油管博主尼克·雪利颁发了1万美元奖金，以奖励他对蓝州托儿服务进行的未经证实的攻击。担任特朗普反欺诈特别工作组主席的副总统万斯将费恩伯格的问题称为“从根本上说是不诚实的”，并表示《虚假申报法》的适用范围很窄。随后他在社交媒体上骂费恩伯格是“白痴”，这是另一个侮辱智力障碍者的词汇。
That day, the Trump administration, which has made an effort to change definition of “fraud” to benefit itself, awarded right-wing YouTuber Nick Shirley $10,000 for his unsubstantiated attacks on child care in blue states Vice President JD Vance, who serves as the chair of Trump’s fraud elimination task force, labeled Feinberg’s question as “fundamentally dishonest” and said the False Claims Act has narrow eligibility. He later called Feinberg an “imbecile” on social media, another insult describing people with intellectual disabilities.
“使用‘蒙古症、蠢才、白痴、弱智或智障’等侮辱性词汇，对智力障碍者及其家庭造成伤害，并让我们的运动倒退了几十年，”全国唐氏综合征协会执行主任吉姆·哈德森周三在一份公开声明中说。“我们恳请人们停止使用这种贬义语言，给予唐氏综合征患者和其他残疾人应有的尊重和尊严。”
“The use of slurs such as ‘Mongoloid, moron, imbecile and retarded or retard’ is painful to individuals with intellectual disability and their families and sets our movement back decades,” Jim Hudson, executive director of the National Down Syndrome Congress said in a public statement Wednesday. “We implore people to stop using this derogatory language and treat people with Down syndrome and other disabilities with the respect and dignity they deserve.”
正如我的同事朱莉娅·梅特罗去年5月所写，特朗普政府使用侮辱性词汇，符合总统几十年来表现出的能力歧视和优生学观点的模式——从偏爱拥有“优良基因”的人，到说患有复杂残疾的人应该“直接去死”。
As my colleague Julia Métraux wrote last May the Trump administration’s use of slurs falls into a pattern of ableist and eugenicist views the president has expressed for decades—from favoring people with “good genes” to saying that people with complex disabilities should “just die
