特朗普的关税政策及其对伊朗的战争导致物价上涨,但这位美国总统仍不断声称这是“历史上最伟大的经济”。
Trump’s tariffs and his war against Iran caused prices to rise, but the US president continues to claim it’s ‘the greatest economy in history’ Donald Trump has taken to repeating a familiar boast: “We have the greatest economy in history,” Trump said recently at a White House press gaggle. The boast comes even though inflation is higher and economic growth lower than when Joe Biden left office, even though gas prices have jumped around 50% since the war against Iran started, and even though 73% of Americans think the economy is in fair or poor shape (48% say it’s in poor shape). What’s more, the Federal Reserve is so worried about inflation that it just raised interest rates.

尽管通货膨胀率高于乔·拜登离任时,经济增长率低于当时,尽管自对伊朗的战争开始以来汽油价格上涨了约50%,且73%的美国人认为经济状况一般或糟糕(48%的人认为状况糟糕),但特朗普依然坚持这一说法。此外,美联储因担心通胀而刚刚提高了利率。

美国主要工会联合会AFL-CIO的首席经济学家达里克·汉密尔顿表示:“他说经济是有史以来最伟大的,这纯属虚张声势和煤气灯效应。从多项指标来看,经济正在走下坡路。其中很大一部分是由特朗普的非受迫性失误造成的。”
“It’s bluster, it’s gaslighting for him to say the economy is the greatest ever,” said Darrick Hamilton, chief economist for the AFL-CIO, the nation’s main union federation. “The economy is trending down by many measures. A lot of that has been caused by Trump’s unforced errors.”
