(1) Jeb Bush, who dubbed himself a "joyful tortoise" in his pursuit of the Republican presidential nomination, has had enough of the tough-talking hare in the 2016 race.
(2) After weeks of enduring rival Donald Trump’s attacks, Mr. Bush on Tuesday released an Internet video aimed at trying to muscle his way back to the front of the pack and undermine the celebrity businessman’s fitness to be the GOP standard-bearer.
(3) The video uses years-old interviews in which Mr. Trump contradicts his 2016 platform by calling himself "very pro-choice”, proposes raising taxes on the wealthiest Americans, says he "probably identifies more as a Democrat," and praises former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, now the Democratic presidential front-runner.
(4) Mr. Bush also assailed Mr. Trump as "not conservative" — in both English and Spanish — during a visit to a Miami school on Tuesday and in a Fox News interview, signaling that his campaign now views the businessman as a legitimate threat who isn’t going to implode without external fire.
(5) Mr. Bush’s decision to engage Mr. Trump carries risks. He quickly drew a retort from Mr. Trump, who has drawn widespread attention by shooting from the hip on social media and in frequent national television appearances.
(6) "Yet another weak hit by a candidate with a failing campaign," Mr. Trump said on Twitter on Tuesday, dismissing the Bush attack. "Will Jeb sink as low in the polls as the others who have gone after me?"
(7) He later posted on Instagram a video of Mr. Bush, the former chairman of the board of the trustees of the National Constitution Center, praising Mrs. Clinton while giving her an award in 2013 for her public service. "No more Clintons or Bushes!" Mr. Trump wrote.
(8) When Mr. Trump entered the presidential race, Mr. Bush’s allies said they expected the real-estate mogul to overshadow other Republicans in the race and draw favourable attention to the policy-oriented, former two-term governor of Florida.
(9) Since late July, Mr. Trump has jumped to the lead in polls, while Mr. Bush has seen his numbers dip. A Monmouth University Poll of likely Iowa Republican caucus goers published on Monday found Mr. Trump and Ben Carson tied for the top spot, with 23%. Mr. Bush was at 5%, down two percentage points from its July survey in Iowa.
(10) Attacking Mr. Trump’s conservative credentials allows Mr. Bush to tout his own record, which includes lowering taxes and signing pro-gun and antiabortion legislation in Florida. The super PAC supporting Mr. Bush, Right to Rise, recently sent out tens of thousands of mailers to voters in the early-nominating states of Iowa and New Hampshire touting his "real conservative results" as governor.
(11) The super PAC is scheduled to begin airing television ads this month in those states that are expected to carry positive, biographical messages about Mr. Bush.
(12) Campaign aides and the super PAC advisers aren’t allowed to coordinate their strategies, but they can send indirect signals through online ads like the one the Bush campaign posted on Tuesday that indicates concern about Mr. Trump.
(13) "We reserve the right to defend Gov. Bush’s message to contrast with any other candidate in the race," Paul Lindsay, a spokesman for the Right to Rise super PAC, said on Tuesday. And Mike Murphy, the top strategist at the super PAC, posted the anti-Trump spot on his Twitter feed on Tuesday. Previously he has dismissed Trump as a "zombie candidate" who "can’t kill anybody but himself and that’s already begun."
(14) A spokeswoman for Mr. Trump who was asked for comment referred to his post on Twitter. Mr. Bush’s advisers have repeatedly said that summertime polls rarely predict the nominee.
(15) The main thrust of Mr. Trump’s criticism of Mr. Bush has been that the former governor is soft on illegal immigration and beholden to wealthy special interests. On Monday, Mr. Trump posted a clip of Mr. Bush on Instagram and Facebook saying in 2014 of illegal immigrants, "Yes, they broke the law, but it’s not a felony, it’s an act of love." Mr. Trump’s bolded commentary: "Forget love. It’s time to get tough!"
(16) The Trump assault has coincided with some unwanted publicity about Mr. Bush’s finances. The campaign recently acknowledged efforts to cut costs, including staff salaries. Three fundraising consultants in Florida quit the campaign. [br] Which of the following social media was NOT mentioned in the article as used by Mr. Trump in his campaign?
选项
A、Instagram.
B、Facebook.
C、Twitter.
D、PAC.
答案
D
解析
细节题。文中提到特朗普是使用社交媒体的老手,所以在竞选活动中也多次借力不同的社交网络,其中包括Facebook、Twitter和Instagram。PAC虽然在文中出现,但是从上下文可以很容易地推断出这是一个组织而非社交媒体。
