Ladies and gentlemen, today was Super Tuesday,

女士们先生们 今天是超级星期二
the day during an election year on which several states hold primary elections.
就是大选年各州将会进行初选的日子
And depending on the results of Super Tuesday, tomorrow could be panic Wednesday.
超级星期二的选举结果可能会使明天变成恐惧星期三
Because, let's be honest, this Super Tuesday could be the day
因为 老实讲 特朗普正是参与总统竞选这件事从这一天起
that Trump running for president becomes officially not funny anymore.
可能变得不再那么有趣
Why do Americans call this day Super Tuesday?
为什么美国人要把这一天叫做超级星期二啊
Do you even know what the word super means?
你们知道超级这个词是什么意思吗
Calling the primary elections super is like calling broccoli a guilty pleasure.
用超级这个词来形容初选感觉就像是用犯罪般的快感来形容花椰菜
Trump's chances of getting the nomination are looking very good.
川普的赢面非常大
He's earned so many endorsements.
因为他获得了很多赞助
Most recently, at a rally in Georgia yesterday,
最近 在昨天的佐治亚州集会中
Trump was endorsed by the C.E.O. of Nascar and several prominent Nascar drivers.
特朗普获得了纳斯卡总裁和数位纳斯卡著名车手的支持

"超级星期二"为何超级?

With the Nascar endorsement, Donald Trump has locked up the coveted guy you wish your sister would break up with vote.

有了纳斯卡的支持 唐纳德·特朗普就拥有了那个你跟你姐妹为之反目成仇的人
People were really applauding when these Nascar drivers joined the stage at the Trump rally.
当纳斯卡的车手在集会中跟特朗普一起站在台上的时候 很多人鼓掌了
And that's impressive.
我印象很深刻
Do you know how hard it is to applaud when three of your fingers were blown off by a firecracker?
你们知道当你的三根手指头被爆竹炸断时 鼓掌有多难吗
I mean It's not nice!
都没声音的
But the C.E.O. of Nascar, Brian France, spoke saying that Trump is a family man. And it's true.
纳斯卡的总裁布莱尔·弗朗斯说特朗普是个重视家庭的人 一点没错
Just ask any of Trump's three wives.
问问他的三个老婆就知道了
That's how much he loves families. He made three of them!
他就是这样热爱家庭 所以他给自己准备了三个家庭
To be honest, I don't even know why this is even news.
说真的 我都不知道这个为什么会上新闻
Donald Trump being endorsed by Nascar is like Bernie Sanders being endorsed by a vegan coffee shop.
唐纳德·特朗普获得纳斯卡的支持 不就像伯尼·桑德斯获得素食咖啡厅的支持一样吗
But the big news about Trump the last couple of days has been outrage
这几天最大的新闻就是
after Trump's initial refusal to disavow the Ku Klux Klan after they endorsed him.
三K党表示支持特朗普 而特朗普表示拒绝之后引起的公愤
Now, in his defense, Trump did eventually say he was against the K.K.K.,
为了维护自己的名声 特朗普最终表示自己反对三K党
and he did that after taking only 48 hours to think about it.
这件事他只花了48个小时去考虑
He just needed to sleep on it. Twice.
只是睡个觉的时间而已 睡两觉
Trump has gotten out in front of these racism allegations.
特朗普在面对这些种族问题时 总是跟别人不一样
In fact, just this morning, he renounced support of all white supremacists
今天早上他还重申了对白人至上主义的支持
and then declared, there's nobody that's done so much for equality as I have,
然后说 我为种族平等所做出的努力比任何人都多
pointing to his mar-a-lago club in palm beach, Florida as an example.
一边还指向他佛罗里达的马阿拉歌庄园
Trump's mar-a-lago resort is open to people of any race, color, or creed...
特朗普的马拉阿歌庄园对任何种族 任何肤色 任何宗教的
who can afford the non-refundable $100,000 application fee.
负担得起10万美元的不退换申请费的人开放
That's right. Trump's best argument for being pro-equality is that he built a country club that doesn't ban minorities.
没错 特朗普最有力地表明自己超平等主义的证据就是他这座不歧视少数人的乡村庄园
Nothing represents the melting pot of America like a golf club in Florida.
这座佛罗里达州的乡村庄园最能代表美国是一个多种族的混合国家
The situation with Donald Trump has gotten so crazy that Ted Cruz has become the voice of reason.
唐纳德·特朗普疯成这样 全是因为泰德·科鲁兹的一段录音
Cruz recently went on a conservative radio show where he offered Trump a little advice.
科鲁兹最近上了一个谈话广播节目 他在节目中给特朗普提了点小建议
You know, I've joked that there are not many iron rules in politics,
大家知道 我曾开玩笑说政治里没有永恒不变的定律
but one that you can count on 100% of the time is:
但是有一点你要永远坚持
the Klan? Always bad. Nazis? always bad.
三K党永远是坏的 纳粹永远是坏的
You'll just, never go wrong with that rule.
永远不要违背这个规则
Either the Klan or Nazis, bad, bad, bad...
不管三K党还是纳粹 都要远离 远离 再远离
Ted Cruz has the moral high ground here.
泰德·科鲁兹占领了道德高地
I mean Ted Cruz was endorsed by the guy from duck dynasty.
但他有鸭子王朝的人支持
The difference between the duck dynasty guy and the K.K.K. is that one of them has a TV show.
鸭子王朝和三K党之间的不同之处就在于 其中一个有自己的电视节目
But after his losses on Super Tuesday, Ted Cruz is having a tough night.
超级星期二失利后 泰德·科鲁兹晚上很难过
I mean Ted, how do you feel about your chances of becoming president now?
泰德 你觉得自己现在当上总统的机会还有多大
Bad, bad, bad...
不妙 不妙 不妙啊
