访谈录 2011-05-01&05-03 唐纳德-特朗普参加总统竞选

-I see, Donald Trump¹ and his pretended campaign.

-First of all, I disagree with your premise², but I will say this: I don't know why we are taking him so seriously? Why are we listening to this curiosity (right) from the 80s? It's like opening up the...Right?

-I agree.

-It's like opening up paper and finding out John Wayne Bobbitt's severed³ penis’s the ambassador to France.

-Yeah.

-That's how I look at it.

-I remember when that happened. Ha, ha. But..

-What's the aftermath take on that crippled reactor⁴ in Japan, you know, but he is really running, Dave.

-Yes. No, he isn't really running. No, he is absolutely not running.

-No, thiat’s a surprise. Liseten, don't make me amorously⁵ on this. Hum, I, that's what many commentators⁶ say what you said, this is just a publicity⁷ thing. I think, because of his giant ego⁸ and also because of his age, this is to be the last time that he really can do it. And also, you know, what's the telling hint, he is now sucking up to evangelicals (Right) because he has to run in Iowa. And the Republicans in Iowa, as I call them the children of the corn, they are the most conservative and you have to win Iowa. And so I saw him on the show the other day and he was saying: there are somebody’s, you know, religious habits, said, I am a Sunday church goer. You know, like that proves he knows a lot about religions, you know, he'll go on Sunday.

-Yes, he won’t go on two days.

-My worship of the Jesus is the best. The way I worship of our sage⁹ is world-class.

-I mean I would like to wager¹⁰ somebody where I can make some real go on this. How much are you talking about?

-Let's wager. Let's wager our week's pay, mine against yours.

-Will you throw in some stakes?

-I will wear a tie.
