As he made the pilgrimage to the Alps,
特朗普慕名來到達沃斯時，
Trump, buoyed by a robust economy and soaring stock market, had two options for how to bridge this ideological divide.
在蓬勃發展的經濟及猛漲的股市的推動下，他有兩個選擇可以彌補這一意識形態的差異。
He and the many Cabinet members in his retinue could reach out to the skeptics to try to convince them that American foreign policy under this President is,
一是和他的隨從內閣們一起，主動向懷疑論者示好，嘗試說服他們這屆美國總統的外交政策，
as was said about Wagner’s music, not as bad as it sounds, and is more in line with their thinking than they realized.
就像對瓦格納的音樂評論的那樣，其實并沒有聽起來那么糟，甚至還比他們想的更加符合他們自己的想法。
Or Trump could try to win them over, making the case for trade that is narrowly balanced rather than free,
二則可以試試把那些人都籠絡過來，為勉強能夠維持平衡的貿易而非自由貿易奔走呼號。
calling out China, Russia, North Korea and Iran by name, criticizing America’s allies in Europe and Asia for free-riding on U.S. armed forces,
然后譴責中國、俄羅斯、朝鮮和伊朗，指責美國的歐亞同盟搭美國軍力的順風車，
and defending the unilateral American recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.
并堅持捍衛美國單方面承認耶路撒冷為以色列首都的立場。
He could ignore the importance of human rights and freedom and emphasize security over all else when it comes to immigration.
在移民問題上，他可以忽略人權和自由的重要性，大談安全問題。
The truth is, neither option has much of a chance of working: the distance between Trump and the globalists is too great.
事實是，這兩種選擇恐怕都很難奏效，因為特朗普和全球主義者之間的差距實在是太大了。
Instead, both sides need to be more realistic.
相反，雙方都需要現實一些。
The Davos men and women need to open their minds to the idea that some of what Trump has to say may be right.
達沃斯的男男女女們需要把心胸放得更開一點，認識到特朗普的某些話可能是正確的。
They need to pay attention to the many people around the world who rightly fear globalization and modernity.
他們需要關注的是世界各地那些畏懼全球化和現代化但有他們自己的理由的人群。
Trump is wrong to paint trade and immigration as the culprits,
特朗普把貿易和移民當成問題的罪魁禍首固然不對，
but millions of jobs will disappear in the coming years thanks to new technologies, from robotics to driverless vehicles to artificial intelligence.
但不久的將來，機器人、無人駕駛汽車、人工智能等新科技的確會帶來數百萬個就業機會的流失。
What new jobs these advances create will require new skills and the training and education to perform them.
這些進步創造的新工作需要新的技能，以及與之匹配的培訓和教育。
The Davos globalists may well have to pay higher taxes to help fund needed retraining, transitional economic assistance and better public education.
達沃斯的全球主義者們很可能要繳更高的稅，來資助那些培訓，支援過渡時期的經濟發展，以及提供更好的公共教育。
The stakes are high: the populism that, for the moment, is in modest retreat will return with a vengeance if large numbers of people around the world are left behind.
這樣做的風險是很高的，因為如果全世界有大量人口都落后了，那么目前溫和且已退卻的民粹主義浪潮就會卷土重來。
