We have a chance this year, to reclaim¹ our heritage as a country that dreams big and makes the impossible happen.

我们今年有一个机会，重现我们作为一个国家敢于梦想、敢于冒险的遗产。

Fortunately, Donald Trump² is incapable³ of thinking small.

When I was a child, my father always told me, Ivanka if you're going to be thinking anyway, you might as well think big.

当我还是个孩子时，我父亲总是告诉我，“伊万卡，如果你有什么理想，一定要目标远大。”

对所有美国人，我想说，当我的父亲与你在一起时，你永远不需担心失望。他会每次都为你一战到底！

Maybe it's the developer in him, but Donald Trump cannot stand to see empty main streets and boarded up factories.

也许因为他是开发商，看到空荡荡的主街和木板围成的工厂，川普无法忍受。

He can't bear the injustice⁶ of college graduates who are crippled by student debt, and mothers who can't afford the cost of the childcare required to return to work to better the lives of their families.

他也不能忍受大学毕业生因学生债务、母亲因负担不起儿托费用无法回去工作改善家庭生活所遭遇的不公。

Other politicians see these hardships, see the unfairness of it all, and they say I feel for you. Only my father will say, I'll fight for you.

其他政客看到这些艰辛，看到这一切的不公会说：“我为你而憾。”只有我父亲会说，“我为你而战。”

The hard working men and women of this country identify with my father.

He is tough and he is persevering⁷. He is honest and he is real. He's an optimist⁸ and he's a relentless believer in America and all of her potential.

他是一条硬汉，而且持之以恒；他诚实且真实；他乐观、虔诚，对美国及其所有潜能深信不疑。

He loves his family and he loves his country with his heart and his soul.
