特朗普接受共和党提名的正式演讲【中】
Donald Trump's acceptance speech at the RNC
Tonight, I will share with you for action for America. The most important difference between our plan and that of our opponents, is that our plan will put America first. Americanism, not globalism, will be our credo[信条;教义].
As long as we are led by politicians who will not put America first, then we can be assured that other nations will not treat America with respect. The respect that we deserve. The American people will come first once again.
First, my plan will begin with safety at home which means safe neighborhoods, secure borders, and protection from terrorism. There can be no prosperity without law and order.
On the economy, I will outline reforms to add millions of new jobs and trillions in new wealth that can be used to rebuild America.
A number of these reforms that I will outline tonight will be opposed by some of our nation's most powerful special interests. That is because these interests have rigged[(采取不正当的手段)操纵;对…做手脚] our political and economic system for their exclusive benefit. Believe me. It is for their benefit. For their benefit.
Big business, elite media[精英媒体] and major donors are lining up behind the campaign of my opponent because they know she will keep our rigged system in place. They are throwing money at her because they have total control over every single thing she does. She is their puppet[傀儡], and they pull the strings[在幕后拉线/操纵]. That is why Hillary Clinton's message is that things will never change. Never ever.
My message is that things have to change and they have to change right now. Every day I wake up determined to deliver a better life for the people all across this nation that had been ignored, neglected and abandoned.
I have visited the laid-off factory workers[下岗工人], and the communities crushed by our horrible and unfair trade deals. These are the forgotten men and women of our country, and they are forgotten, but they will not be forgotten long. These are people who work hard but no longer have a voice. I am your voice.
I have embraced crying mothers who have lost their children because our politicians put their personal agendas before the national good.
I have no patience for injustice. No tolerance for government incompetence. When innocent people suffer, because our political system lacks the will, or the courage, or the basic decency to enforce our laws, or worse still[更糟的是], has sold out to some corporate lobbyist[说客;游说者] for cash I am not able to look the other way. And I won't look the other way[视而不见].
And when a Secretary of State illegally stores her emails on a private server, deletes 33,000 of them so the authorities can't see her crime, puts our country at risk, lies about it in every different form and faces no consequence — I know that corruption has reached a level like never ever before in our country.
When the FBI director says that the Secretary of State was "extremely careless" and "negligent[疏忽的,失职的]" in handling our classified secrets, I also know that these terms are minor compared to what she actually did. They were just used to save her from facing justice for her terrible, terrible crimes.
In fact, her single greatest accomplishment may be committing such an egregious[(错误等)极其严重的,极坏的,令人震惊的] crime and getting away with[做(错事)而未被惩罚,做(坏事)而未被发觉] it, especially when others who have been far less have paid so dearly.
When that same Secretary of State rakes in[赚大钱;迅速取得;大量地敛集] millions of dollars trading access and favors to special interests and foreign powers, I know the time for action has come.
I have joined the political arena so that the powerful can no longer beat up on people that cannot defend themselves.
Nobody knows the system better than me, which is why I alone can fix it. I have seen firsthand how the system is rigged against our citizens, just like it was rigged against Bernie Sanders[桑德斯]. He never had a chance.
But his supporters will join our movement, because we will fix his biggest issue: Trade deals that strip[剥夺;剥去] our country of jobs and the distribution of wealth in the country.
Millions of Democrats will join our movement, because we are going to fix the system so it works fairly and justly for each and every American.
In this cause, I am proud to have at my side the next Vice President of the United States: Governor Mike Pence of Indiana[印第安纳州]. And a great guy. We will bring the same economic success to America that Mike brought Indiana, which is amazing. He is a man of character and accomplishment. He is the right man for the job.
The first task for our new administration will be to liberate our citizens from the crime and terrorism and lawlessness that threatens their — our communities.
America was shocked to its core when our police officers in Dallas were so brutally[残忍地;残酷地] executed. Immediately after Dallas, we have seen continued threats and violence against our law enforcement officials. Law officers have been shot or killed in recent days in Georgia, Missouri, Wisconsin, Kansas, Michigan and Tennessee.
On Sunday, more police were gunned down in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Three were killed, and three were very badly injured. An attack on law enforcement is an attack on all Americans.
I have a message to every last person threatening the peace on our streets and the safety of our police: When I take the oath of office[宣誓就职] next year, I will restore law and order to our country.
I will work with, and appoint, the best prosecutors and law enforcement officials in the country to get the job properly done. In this race for the White House, I am the law and order candidate.
The irresponsible rhetoric[不负责的言辞] of our president, who has used the pulpit[讲道坛;讲道台;讲台] of the presidency to divide us by race and color, has made America a more dangerous environment than frankly, I have ever seen and anybody in this room has ever watched or seeing.
This administration has failed America's inner cities[内城区]. Remember, it has failed America's inner cities. It's failed them on education. It's failed them on jobs. It's failed them on crime. It's failed them in every way and on every single level.
When I am president, I will work to ensure that all of our kids are treated equally, and protected equally. Every action I take, I will ask myself: Does this make life better for young Americans in Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit, and Ferguson who have really come in every way, have the same right to live out their dreams as any other child in America?
To make life safe in America, we must also address the growing threats from outside the country. We are going to defeat the barbarians[野蛮人;蛮夷] of ISIS. And we are going to defeat them bad.
Once again, France is the victim of brutal Islamic terrorism. Men, women and children viciously mowed down[杀死;扫杀]. Lives ruined. Families ripped apart. A nation in mourning. The damage and devastation that can be inflicted by Islamic radicals has been proven over and over. At the World Trade Center, at an office party in San Bernardino, at the Boston Marathon, and a military recruiting center in Chattanooga, Tennessee. And many other locations.
Only weeks ago, in Orlando, Florida, 49 wonderful Americans were savagely[野蛮地;残酷地;凶暴地] murdered by an Islamic terrorist. This time, the terrorist targeted LGBTQ community.
No good. And we're going to stop it. As your president, I will do everything in my power to protect our LGBTQ citizens from the violence and oppression of a hateful foreign ideology[意识形态;思想意识]. Believe me. And I have to say as a Republican, it is so nice to hear you cheering for what I just said. Thank you.
To protect us from terrorism, we need to focus on three things.
We must have the best, absolutely the best, gathering of intelligence[收集情报] anywhere in the world. The best.
We must abandon the failed policy of nation- building and regime change that Hillary Clinton pushed in Iraq, Libya, in Egypt, and Syria.
Instead, we must work with all of our allies who share our goal of destroying ISIS and stamping out[踏灭(火);扑灭(暴动等)] Islamic terrorism and doing it now, doing it quickly. We're going to win. We're going to win fast. This includes working with our greatest ally in the region, the state of Israel[以色列].
