“被激怒”
用英语怎么说？

Tapper and Thompson vehemently disagree. They offer a gracious portrait of Robert Hur, the special counsel who investigated Biden’s handling of classified materials and in his February 2024 report famously described the president as a “sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” Biden and his team were incensed and tried “to slime Hur as an unprofessional right-wing hack,” but the authors defend his notorious line. They emphasize that it is incumbent upon a special counsel to spell out how the subject of an investigation would probably appear to a jury — and that what Hur wrote about Biden was true.

塔珀和汤普森对此强烈反对。他们对调查拜登处理机密材料的特别顾问罗伯特·赫尔做了一番正面的描述，赫尔在自己2024年2月的报告中，将总统描述为一位“富有同情心、善意、记忆力差的老人”。拜登和他的团队被激怒了，并试图“诬蔑赫尔是一个不专业的右派打手”，但两位作者为这句著名的话辩护。他们强调，特别检察官有责任阐明调查对象如果出现在陪审团面前，可能是什么样的形象，而且赫尔所写的关于拜登的内容是真实的。
