The White House has rejected a Wall Street Journal report claiming President Trump had been told that his name appeared in files related to the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

華爾街日報》報道稱，特朗普總統被告知他的名字出現在與已定罪的性犯罪者傑弗裡-愛潑斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）有關的文件中，白宮拒絕了這一報道。

The U.S. newspaper alleges the Attorney General Pam Bondi informed Mr. Trump in May that he'd been identified in the documents.

美國報紙稱，司法部長帕姆-邦迪（Pam Bondi）在五月份通知特朗普先生，他已在文件中被指認。

情態副詞

The BBC has not been able to independently verify the claim.

Earlier, a U.S. federal judge turned down the Trump administration's request to release additional grand jury documents from the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.

早些時候，一名美國聯邦法官拒絕了特朗普政府要求公開大陪審團調查傑弗裡-愛潑斯坦的更多文件的請求。

President Trump had asked for the evidence to be released after days of sustained pressure from some of his most loyal supporters.

在一些最忠實的支持者持續施壓數日之後，特朗普總統要求公佈這些證據。

For nearly two weeks, the Jeffrey Epstein saga has consumed the White House in a way that the President doesn't want.

近兩個星期以來，傑弗裡-愛潑斯坦事件以一種總統不希望看到的方式席捲了白宮。

Now the Wall Street Journal claims that the U.S.

現在，《華爾街日報》聲稱，美國

Attorney General told Mr. Trump in May that his name appeared in Justice Department files about late convicted pedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein.

司法部長在 5 月份告訴特朗普先生，他的名字出現在司法部關於已故戀童癖金融家傑弗裡-愛潑斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）的文件中。

This has been rejected by the White House and the BBC has not been able to independently verify the allegation.

白宮拒絕了這一說法，BBC 也無法獨立核實這一指控。

As pressure continues to mount on the President, a U.S. judge has denied a bid to unseal grand jury material from the Epstein investigation.

隨著總統面臨的壓力不斷增大，一名美國法官駁回了公開大陪審團對愛潑斯坦調查材料的申請。

During his campaign last year, Trump, who at one time had been the financier's friend, promised to release files relating to the case, hoping to pacify those who have been seeking more information.

特朗普曾一度是這位金融家的朋友，他在去年競選期間承諾公開與此案有關的文件，希望以此安撫那些一直在尋求更多資訊的人。

Look, the President has made it clear that he wanted these documents to be declassified, he wanted the American people to see the truth, and now he wants those who perpetuated these lies and this scandal to be held accountable.

聽著，總統已經明確表示，他希望這些文件能夠解密，他希望美國人民能夠看到真相，現在他希望那些製造這些謊言和醜聞的人能夠被追究責任。

As for what accountability looks like, as the director said, it's in the Department of Justice's hands and we trust them to move this ball forward.

至於問責制是什麼樣的，正如局長所說，它掌握在司法部的手中，我們相信他們會推進這項工作。

The attempt to draw a line under the case not going down well with many who have been loyal to Donald Trump.

許多忠於唐納德-特朗普（Donald Trump）的人並不看好這種試圖與案件劃清界限的做法。

President Trump is under an unprecedented amount of pressure right now.

特朗普總統現在正承受著前所未有的壓力。

It's different from other controversies he's faced during his political career because for the first time since he's gotten involved in politics over the last decade, we have seen that his conservative MAGA base appears to be splintering.

這與他政治生涯中面臨的其他爭議不同，因為自他過去十年參與政治以來，我們第一次看到他的保守派 MAGA 基礎似乎正在分裂。

Polls suggest nearly two-thirds of Americans overall disapprove of his handling of the case.

民意調查顯示，近三分之二的美國人總體上不贊成他對此案的處理。

Meanwhile, the focus now also shifts to Epstein's longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted sex trafficker who is serving 20 years in prison for helping Epstein abuse young girls, has been approached by the Justice Department for a meeting.

與此同時，現在的焦點也轉移到了愛潑斯坦的長期合夥人吉斯蘭-麥克斯韋爾（Ghislaine Maxwell）身上，這位因幫助愛潑斯坦虐待少女而被判入獄 20 年的性販子已被司法部約見。

She has also been subpoenaed to testify before a House of Representatives committee on the 11th of August.

她還被傳喚於 8 月 11 日在眾議院委員會作證。

The more Donald Trump has urged people to move on from this case, the more it has remained in public discourse.

唐納德-特朗普越是敦促人們從這一案件中走出來，這一案件就越是留在公眾的討論中。

I asked him for his assessment on these developments.

我問他對這些事態發展的看法。

We definitely have a sort of a low-level feeding frenzy in the media on this.

在媒體上，我們肯定有一種低層次的餵食狂熱。

But if history is any guide, other world events will likely overtake this and push this at least to the side on the news at least for a time.

但如果以史為鑑，其他世界事件很可能會超越這一事件，至少在一段時間內將這一事件擠到新聞的次要位置。

Is it enough for the pressure he's getting from his supporters, the MAGA crew as it were, to say, well, you know, we are trying to bring transparency here, we are trying to get these files in the public arena, but we're being blocked by the judges?

他的支持者、"MAGA "成員們對他施加的壓力是否足以讓他說："好吧，你知道，我們正試圖提高這裡的透明度，我們正試圖將這些文件公之於眾，但我們受到了法官的阻撓。

I mean, the fact is that his, Trump is very popular with, the president's very popular with his political base, the MAGA Republicans.

我的意思是，事實上，特朗普很受他的政治基礎--MAGA共和黨人--的歡迎。

There is some polling that suggests about a third of Republicans are frustrated or unhappy with the way he's handling it.

有民調顯示，大約三分之一的共和黨人對他的處理方式感到沮喪或不滿。

That research just came out today or yesterday.

這項研究是今天或昨天剛出來的。

I suspect that his base will remain loyal and they will keep pressing forward.

我懷疑他的支持者會保持忠誠，他們會繼續向前推進。

But this persists because you have a decline in trust in American institutions.

但這種情況之所以持續存在，是因為人們對美國機構的信任度下降。

And you see this all across Western democracies as well.

這一點在西方民主國家也隨處可見。

And so because there's a decline in trust in these institutions, people have a lot more questions.

是以，由於對這些機構的信任度下降，人們有了更多的疑問。

But that's something that he absolutely played on, didn't he, in his campaigning to be elected as president.

但在競選總統時，他絕對會利用這一點，不是嗎？

He said that was something he also had as well, a huge distrust in institutions and what they know and what they're hiding.

他說，他也有這種感覺，對機構、機構知道的事情和機構隱瞞的事情非常不信任。

And this was a fixture of his rhetoric on the campaign trail.

這也是他在競選過程中的固定說辭。

I don't know if he mentioned this on every stop, but he did mention it quite a bit.

我不知道他是否在每一站都提到了這一點，但他確實提到了很多。

And so they've kind of boxed themselves in a little bit on this issue.

是以，他們在這個問題上有點束手束腳。

So what you're saying then, Robert, is you believe eventually this will blow over?

那你的意思是，羅伯特，你相信這件事最終會平息？

Because, I mean, the midterms are not that far away.

因為，我的意思是，中期選舉已經不遠了。

And if this does not, I mean, he's trying to sue various press publications, et cetera.

如果不這樣做，我的意思是，他試圖起訴各種新聞出版品，等等。

If it doesn't go away, this could be very damaging, could it not, for him and the Republican Party in the midterms?

如果這件事不能平息，這對他和共和黨在中期選舉中會造成很大的損害，不是嗎？

I mean, this is a classic example of all of the challenges that a president, many of our presidencies have had scandals.

我的意思是，這是一個典型的例子，說明了總統所面臨的所有挑戰，我們的許多總統都有醜聞。

And so part of being president is managing these.

是以，作為總統的一部分就是管理這些。
