美國財政部長斯科特·貝斯特（Scott Bessent）正在考慮在與特朗普的關稅政策分歧時辭職

根據MSNBC的斯蒂芬妮·魯爾（Stephanie Ruhle）的說法，美國財政部長斯科特·貝斯特（Scott Bessent）正在考慮辭職。這種負面反應可能是合理的

US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent may be considering resigning amid disagreement with Trump’s tariff policy, according to Stephanie Ruhle on MSNBC.

根據MSNBC的Stephanie Ruhle的說法，美國財政部長Scott Bessent可能正在考慮辭職。

This negative reaction may be justified, as we are already seeing mile-high market fluctuations after the announcement of the tariffs, as well as harsh retaliation from several countries, such as China 34%.

這種負面反應可能是合理的，因為在宣布關稅後我們已經看到了英里高的市場波動，以及來自中國等幾個國家的嚴厲報復，34％。

So, we’ve seen perhaps the first fundamental disagreement in the Trump administration since his victory. As reported by Stephanie Ruhle on MSNBC – Scott Bessent does not think it is the best approach to impose such harsh tariff policies that could lead to negative consequences for the US economy, no matter how much Donald Trump claims otherwise.

因此，自從特朗普勝利以來，我們已經看到了特朗普政府的第一個基本分歧。正如斯蒂芬妮·魯爾（Stephanie Ruhle）在MSNBC上的報導的那樣 - 斯科特·貝森特（Scott Bessent）並不認為，無論唐納德·特朗普（Donald Trump）聲稱多少，這可能會對美國經濟造成負面影響，從而施加這種嚴厲的關稅政策，這可能會對美國的經濟產生負面影響。

In particular, Scott Bessent favors a more careful and measured approach to tariff policies, instead of imposing 10% for most countries and much more for some others as Trump has done. Bessent considers such tariffs “maximalist” and warns of a host of negative consequences.

特別是，斯科特·貝斯特（Scott Bessent）傾向於採取更加謹慎和衡量的關稅政策方法，而不是對大多數國家施加10％的態度，而對特朗普所做的其他一些國家則更多。 Bessent認為此類關稅“最大化主義者”，並警告許多負面後果。

And it didn’t take long – we saw the markets shake out, and for example, the Dow Jones and Nasdaq saw their worst trading days in 30 years, and several countries like China, for example, imposed severe retaliatory tariffs on US imports of 34%.

而且很快 - 我們看到市場擺脫困境，例如，道瓊斯瓊斯和納斯達克在30年來最糟糕的交易日，例如中國等幾個國家對美國進口34％的進口徵收嚴重的報復性關稅。

That’s a lot, and now the US is set to experience the measures that the Trump administration is applying to others. That said, all of this will affect the American consumer and does not make it any easier for the FED to regulate the economy, creating more uncertainty.

這是很多，現在美國將體驗特朗普政府對他人申請的措施。就是說，所有這些都會影響美國消費者，並不會使美聯儲規範經濟更容易，從而造成更多的不確定性。

Also significant are not only Scott Bessent’s comments themselves but that they were ignored, and he reportedly “remained a lone voice against an initiative he believes is economically flawed.”

同樣重要的是，斯科特·貝森特（Scott Bessent）本身的評論，而且被忽略了，據報導，他“對他認為經濟上有缺陷的倡議保持孤獨。”

So, potentially, we have a situation where a person whose opinion should be considered not least in such matters – was not considered at all, making the possibility of his departure reasonable to a certain extent.

因此，我們可能會有一種情況，即在此類問題上應該考慮到的意見的人 - 根本不考慮其意見，這使他有可能在一定程度上合理地離開。

Of course, this is not a decision made, just talk of some dissent that still needs some direct address from Scott Bessent. But it could be a very important signal that indicates that the time of the post-election wave of coherence and swiftness is ending, and it’s not just the Democrats who may have a fight on their hands with the new Trump administration.

當然，這不是做出的決定，只是談論一些仍然需要Scott Bessent直接地址的異議。但是，這可能是一個非常重要的信號，表明選舉後連貫和迅速的時代已經結束，不僅是民主黨人可能與新的特朗普政府抗衡。

If the world stops seeing a unified and coherent system in the current US administration, especially against the backdrop of political and economic uncertainty already underway and a much broader trade war – this could markedly undermine the US position in several areas.

如果世界停止在當前的美國政府中看到一個統一，連貫的製度，尤其是在政治和經濟不確定性的背景下，以及更廣泛的貿易戰 - 這可能會顯著破壞美國在多個領域的地位。

We will see how this develops going forward, and perhaps things will calm down and we will continue to see a systematic and swift approach, but this could also be the tipping point in it.

我們將看到這是如何發展的，也許情況會平靜下來，我們將繼續看到一種系統的迅速方法，但這也可能是其中的轉折點。
