The letter adds: ‘When dangerous and divisive leaders have come to power in the past, it has been in part because those of goodwill failed to speak out for themselves or their fellow citizens.’
这封信还补充道：“过去，危险独断的政客之所以可以当政，部分归咎于善良的人没能为自己发声，或没能为自己的同胞发声。”

“我们中有些人并没有受特朗普攻击。但历史的真相已昭然若揭，‘我们’要在成为另一个‘他们’前，为‘他们’发声。”

The letter urges: 'We call upon every American to join us to stand together on the right side of history, to use the power of our voice and the power of our vote to defeat Donald Trump and the hateful ideology he represents.'
这封信呼吁道：“我们恳请每一位美国人加入我们，站在历史的正确一边，勇敢地行使言论自由和票选权，坚定地给仇恨意识化身的唐纳德·特朗普投上自己的反对票。”
