特朗普政府在2018年发起的对华贸易战，核心手段是对大量中国商品加征高额关税。表面上，这些关税被宣传为‘让中国买单’，但实际上，经济学研究和多项实证分析表明，绝大多数关税成本最终由美国进口商和消费者承担。例如，纽约联邦储备银行、普林斯顿大学和哥伦比亚大学联合研究发现，加征关税后，美国企业并未显著减少从中国进口，而是将额外成本转嫁给本国消费者，导致日用消费品、电子产品、家电等价格上涨。这意味着，所谓‘关税收入’并非来自中国，而是源自美国普通家庭的支出增加。此外，农业、制造业等依赖全球供应链的行业也因报复性关税和成本上升而遭受重创，进一步加剧了国内经济压力。因此，‘特朗普贸易战关税全是美国百姓血汗钱’这一说法，准确揭示了关税政策的真实负担主体——不是外国，而是本国纳税人与消费者。
The trade war initiated by the Trump administration in 2018 primarily relied on imposing high tariffs on a wide range of Chinese goods. While these tariffs were publicly framed as making China ‘pay the price,’ extensive economic research and empirical analyses show that the vast majority of these costs were ultimately borne by U.S. importers and consumers. For instance, a joint study by the New York Federal Reserve, Princeton University, and Columbia University found that after tariffs were imposed, U.S. companies did not significantly reduce imports from China; instead, they passed the added costs onto American consumers, leading to higher prices for everyday items such as electronics, appliances, and household goods. This means the so-called ‘tariff revenue’ did not come from China but from increased spending by ordinary American households. Moreover, industries reliant on global supply chains—such as agriculture and manufacturing—suffered significant losses due to retaliatory tariffs and rising input costs, further straining the domestic economy. Thus, the statement that ‘Trump’s trade war tariffs were paid entirely with American citizens’ hard-earned money’ accurately reflects who truly bore the burden: not foreign nations, but U.S. taxpayers and consumers themselves.
