Donald Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential candidate, took some wild questions at a town-hall meeting in New Hampshire on Thursday. One woman objected to the wearing of hijabs (which she called “heebie-jobbies”) by airport security officials and wondered if military veterans could be found to replace them. Mr Trump promised to look into it. He thereby conveyed the core principle of his campaign: there is no subject so controversial or off the radar that he will not speak his mind about it. That is what makes his rallies so interesting and, for his audiences, thrilling.
不久前，美國共和黨推定總統(tǒng)候選人唐納德?特朗普(Donald Trump)在新罕布什爾州一個市政廳的集會上回答了幾個瘋狂的問題。一名女士反對機場的運輸安全管理局(TSA)官員戴“希賈布”（hijab，穆斯林婦女戴的頭巾——譯者注；提問的女士還把這個詞說成了“heebie-jobbies”），并且想知道是否能找些退伍軍人替代她們。特朗普承諾研究此事。他由此傳達了其競選的核心原則：從不因話題爭議太大或過于冷門而保留自己的觀點。這使得他的競選集會非常有趣，同時對于他的受眾來說，非常令人興奮。
