周一，特朗普在堪萨斯州的一次集会上使用反犹太主义侮辱性语言，为参议员罗杰·马歇尔（共和党人）辩护。马歇尔因起诉患者未支付医疗费用而受到批评。特朗普表示，马歇尔的行为是“法律规定的”。他说：‘法律要求他必须坚决向患者追讨欠款，否则就是违法。’他还用反犹太主义词汇来形容媒体对马歇尔的报道方式。
President Trump used an antisemitic slur at a rally in Kansas Monday while defending Sen. Roger Marshall (R-Kan.) over revelations he sued his patients for unpaid medical bills. Trump has defended Marshall for going after the unpaid bills, saying he was “mandated by law” to do so. “He was mandated by law to request, strongly, money owed from patients. You’re not allowed not to do it, you have to by law go after those people,” the president said, going on to use an antisemitic slur to describe how he felt the reporting characterized Marshall. Marshall is in a competitive Senate race in Kansas against Democrat and pastor Adam Hamilton. Nonpartisan election forecaster Decision Desk HQ, a partner of The Hill, gives Marshall a 65 percent chance of winning reelection.
马歇尔正在堪萨斯州参加参议院选举，对手是民主党人兼牧师亚当·汉密尔顿。
The president used the slur before during remarks at a billg for his signature tax-and-spend bill, passed in July 2025.
据《The Hill》的合作伙伴、无党派选举预测机构Decision Desk HQ称，马歇尔有65%的胜选几率。
He said the slur while speaking about allowing farmers to pay reduced estate taxes.
特朗普此前在2025年7月签署税收和支出法案的集会上也使用过该侮辱性语言，当时他是在讨论允许农民缴纳较低的遗产税。
When asked about his use of the slur, Trump at the time said he had “never heard it that way,” and said he viewed the use of the word differently.
当被问及这一行为时，特朗普称自己“从未听过这个词的这种用法”，并表示自己对这个词的理解不同。白宫未立即回应《The Hill》的评论请求。
The White House did not immediately respond to The Hill’s request for comment. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), a leading nonprofit advocating against antisemitism, said in July 2025 that the slur “evokes a centuries-old antisemitic trope about Jews and greed.”
反诽谤联盟（ADL）表示，该词汇源自威廉·莎士比亚的《威尼斯商人》，其中有一个名叫夏洛克的反犹太角色，以威胁收回贷款为由威胁受害者。
The term Trump used originates from William Shakespeare’s “The Merchant of Venice,” which features a Jewish character of the same name who extended a loan to a merchant and said he would cut off the merchant’s flesh if it was not repaid.
ADL指出，这一词汇极具冒犯性和危险性，特朗普的使用令人担忧且不负责任。
The ADL wrote last year that the slur “evokes a centuries-old antisemitic trope about Jews and greed that is extremely offensive and dangerous,” adding, “President Trump’s use of the term is very troubling and irresponsible.”
前总统拜登在2014年担任副总统时也曾使用过该词汇，并为此道歉。
Former President Biden also used the slur in 2014 while vice president and later apologized for doing so.
