Donald Trump will seek to reorient his campaign this week amid alarm in the Republican party, with a new economic plan which includes claims that he can double US economic growth by imposing fresh tariffs on China and renegotiating global trade rules.
在共和党内部拉响警钟的背景下，唐纳德•特朗普(Donald Trump)本周将寻求调整竞选方向，推出一份新的经济计划，其中声称他将对中国开征新关税和重新谈判全球贸易规则，使美国经济增速翻倍。
In Detroit on Monday, Mr Trump will lay out a proposal to stimulate the country’s recent lacklustre economic growth through trade and tax incentives aimed at pushing American businesses to bring home jobs and overseas profits, advisers told the Financial Times.
顾问们告诉英国《金融时报》，特朗普周一将在底特律阐述一个提议，借助贸易和税收激励措施推动美国企业把就业岗位和海外利润迁回/汇回本土，从而刺激美国近年不够强劲的经济增长。
It is an attempt by Mr Trump and his staff to refocus their campaign on the economy, one of the few areas where polling had shown the property developer to be stronger than Hillary Clinton but one where the Democratic nominee has been gaining ground.
此举是特朗普及其团队工作人员把竞选活动重新聚焦于经济的一个尝试。民调曾经显示，经济是这个房地产开发商相对于希拉里•克林顿(Hillary Clinton)的少数强项之一，但身为民主党候选人的希拉里近来在该领域取得进展。
Mr Trump’s falling poll numbers have alarmed Republicans after he lashed out at the family of a fallen Muslim-American soldier and engaged in open political warfare with leaders of his own party. Mr Trump took steps towards rectifying the damage on Friday, endorsing House Speaker Paul Ryan and Republican senators John McCain and Kelly Ayotte, after initially wavering on his support for their re-election races.
近日特朗普不断下落的民调数字令共和党人震惊，此前他对一个阵亡穆斯林美国军人的父母出言不逊，并与自己所在政党的领导人开打公开的政治战。上周五，特朗普采取步骤弥补损害，表态支持众议院议长保罗•瑞安(Paul Ryan)以及共和党参议员约翰•麦凯恩(John McCain)和凯利•阿约特(Kelly Ayotte)的竞选连任努力，最初他曾模棱两可地不愿表态。
Yet he has given up crucial ground to Mrs Clinton since the two parties’ conventions in July, with a Real Clear Politics average of polls now showing Mrs Clinton with a seven-point lead against Mr Trump nationally.
然而，自两党在7月举行代表大会以来，他在与希拉里的较量中失去了至关重要的支持，“真清晰政治”(Real Clear Politics)的平均民调结果显示，希拉里在全国领先特朗普七个百分点。
On Sunday, a CBS News poll showed Mrs Clinton opening up a 12-point lead over Mr Trump in Virginia, a swing state. Ohio’s Republican governor John Kasich, a former presidential contender, said on Sunday he believed Mr Trump would struggle to win his state.
周日，哥伦比亚广播公司新闻部(CBS News)的一项民调显示，希拉里在摇摆州弗吉尼亚州领先特朗普12个百分点。俄亥俄州的共和党州长、曾参与党内初选的约翰•卡西奇(John Kasich)周日表示，他相信特朗普将难以拿下俄亥俄州。
“There will be sections he will win because people are angry, frustrated and haven’t heard any answers,” Mr Kasich told CNN. “But I still think it’s difficult if you are dividing to be able to win Ohio. I think it’s really, really difficult.”
“他会赢得一部分选区，因为人们愤怒、沮丧，听不见任何答案，”卡西奇对美国有线新闻网(CNN)表示。“但我仍然认为，如果你要依靠分裂来赢得俄亥俄州，那是很难的。我认为这真的很难很难。”
Surrogates for Mr Trump note that early August poll numbers are not necessarily a harbinger for election day. An August 1988 Gallup poll showed George H W Bush trailing Democratic challenger Michael Dukakis by seven points.
特朗普的代理人指出，8月初的民调数字不一定是选举日的先兆。1988年8月的盖洛普(Gallup)民调曾显示，乔治•H•W•布什(George H W Bush)落后民主党挑战者迈克尔•杜卡基斯(Michael Dukakis)七个百分点。
Trump advisers say the New York mogul can make up lost ground by talking about jobs and the economy. According to an NBC News-Wall Street Journal poll conducted last week, 46 per cent of registered voters view Mr Trump as stronger on the economy, compared with 42 per cent who think Mrs Clinton is. A Washington Post-ABC News poll on Sunday gave Mrs Clinton a narrow lead on the economy.
特朗普的顾问们表示，这位纽约大亨可以通过谈论就业和经济来收复失地。上周进行的全国广播公司新闻部-华尔街日报(NBC News-Wall Street Journal)民调显示，46%的登记选民认为特朗普在经济上较强，相比之下42%的选民认为希拉里在这方面较强。周日发表的华盛顿邮报-美国广播公司新闻部(Washington Post-ABC News)民调显示，希拉里在经济领域以微弱优势领先。
Two of Mr Trump’s economic advisers told the Financial Times that the backbone of his plan to boost US growth remained his trade “doctrine” and forcing China and other trading partners into renegotiating their economic relationship with the US by imposing defensive tariffs.
特朗普的两名经济顾问告诉英国《金融时报》，他的提振美国经济增长计划的主线仍是他的贸易“学说”以及通过征收防御性关税，迫使中国和其他贸易伙伴重新谈判它们与美国的经济关系。
They likened his approach to Ronald Reagan’s tough stand against Japan in the 1980s, which led to the signing of the 1985 Plaza Accord and the revaluation of the yen.
他们把他的姿态与罗纳德•里根(Ronald Reagan)在上世纪80年代针对日本的强硬立场相提并论，当年里根的政策导致1985年签订《广场协议》(Plaza Accord)，以及日元升值。
But they also offered an olive branch to business groups such as the US Chamber of Commerce which, though traditionally pro-Republican, have this year openly challenged Mr Trump’s antitrade views.
但他们也向美国商会(US Chamber of Commerce)等商界团体伸出了橄榄枝；美国商会虽然传统上支持共和党，但今年公开挑战特朗普反对贸易的观点。
In Monday’s speech at the Detroit Economic Club, the Republican nominee will detail proposals on tax reform, energy and reducing regulation that many groups like the chamber would welcome, said Dan DiMicco, the former chief executive of US steelmaker Nucor.
美国钢铁生产商纽柯公司(Nucor)前首席执行官丹•迪米克(Dan DiMicco)介绍说，共和党总统候选人周一在底特律经济俱乐部(Detroit Economic Club)发表演讲时，将详尽阐述有关税制改革、能源和减少管制的提议，而美国商会等很多团体将欢迎这些提议。
“The key thing is that he is going to make it easier for CEOs to decide to build their facilities here,” said Mr DiMicco, one of 14 economic advisers unveiled by the Trump campaign on Friday.
“关键是，他将让CEO们更容易决定在国内建造他们的设施，”身为特朗普竞选团队上周五公布的14名经济顾问之一的迪米克表示。
In the 15 years since China joined the World Trade Organisation the US has grown at an average rate of 1.8 per cent, down from 3.5 per cent between 1947 and 2001, said Peter Navarro, another adviser.
另一名顾问彼得•纳瓦罗(Peter Navarro)指出，自中国加入世界贸易组织(WTO)以来的15年里，美国经济平均增速只有1.8%，低于1947年至2001年期间3.5%的平均增速。
Mr Trump would aim to restore those historic growth rates, he said, by reversing net exports’ current negative contribution to GDP calculations, boosting business investment, and using means beyond “defensive” tariffs on China including demanding a renegotiation of WTO rules.
他说，特朗普将力求恢复上述历史性的增速，具体政策包括扭转净出口当前对国内生产总值(GDP)计算的负贡献，促进企业投资，并采用超越对中国征收“防御性”关税的手段，包括要求重新谈判WTO规则。
Mr Navarro is a Harvard-trained economist who produced Death by China, a 2012 documentary featuring animated Chinese aircraft bombing the US
纳瓦罗是哈佛培养的经济学家，曾在2012年执导纪录片《致命中国》(Death by China)，其中有中国飞机轰炸美国的动画场面。
“What is important is the world is going to look at Donald Trump and say: ‘Look, this guy means business, he knows how to do business and we have to stop treating America like Uncle Sucker and start treating it with fairness’,” Mr Navarro told the FT.
“最重要的是，世界将会看着唐纳德•特朗普，然后说：‘看，这家伙是当真的，他知道怎么做生意，我们绝不能再把美国当作受骗上当的大叔，而要开始公平对待它’，”纳瓦罗对英国《金融时报》表示。
Mrs Clinton will deliver her own economic speech, countering Mr Trump’s, also in Michigan, on Thursday, her campaign announced at the weekend.
希拉里竞选团队周末宣布，希拉里周四也将在密歇根州发表自己的经济演讲，驳斥特朗普的立场。
