根据MSNBC的斯蒂芬妮·鲁尔（Stephanie Ruhle）的说法，美国财政部长斯科特·贝斯特（Scott Bessent）正在考虑辞职。这种负面反应可能是合理的

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

根据MSNBC的Stephanie Ruhle的说法，美国财政部长Scott Bessent可能正在考虑辞职。

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%.

这种负面反应可能是合理的，因为在宣布关税后我们已经看到了英里高的市场波动，以及来自中国等几个国家的严厉报复，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，自从特朗普胜利以来，我们已经看到了特朗普政府的第一个基本分歧。正如斯蒂芬妮·鲁尔（Stephanie Ruhle）在MSNBC上的报道的那样 - 斯科特·贝森特（Scott Bessent）并不认为，无论唐纳德·特朗普（Donald Trump）声称多少，这可能会对美国经济造成负面影响，从而施加这种严厉的关税政策，这可能会对美国的经济产生负面影响。

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.

特别是，斯科特·贝斯特（Scott Bessent）倾向于采取更加谨慎和衡量的关税政策方法，而不是对大多数国家施加10％的态度，而对特朗普所做的其他一些国家则更多。 Bessent认为此类关税“最大化主义者”，并警告许多负面后果。

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 - 我们看到市场摆脱困境，例如，道琼斯琼斯和纳斯达克在30年来最糟糕的交易日，例如中国等几个国家对美国进口34％的进口征收严重的报复性关税。

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.

这是很多，现在美国将体验特朗普政府对他人申请的措施。就是说，所有这些都会影响美国消费者，并不会使美联储规范经济更容易，从而造成更多的不确定性。

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.”

同样重要的是，斯科特·贝森特（Scott Bessent）本身的评论，而且被忽略了，据报道，他“对他认为经济上有缺陷的倡议保持孤独。”

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，我们可能会有一种情况，即在此类问题上应该考虑到的意见的人 - 根本不考虑其意见，这使他有可能在一定程度上合理地离开。

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.

当然，这不是做出的决定，只是谈论一些仍然需要Scott Bessent直接地址的异议。但是，这可能是一个非常重要的信号，表明选举后连贯和迅速的时代已经结束，不仅是民主党人可能与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.

如果世界停止在当前的美国政府中看到一个统一，连贯的制度，尤其是在政治和经济不确定性的背景下，以及更广泛的贸易战 - 这可能会显着破坏美国在多个领域的地位。

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.

我们将看到这是如何发展的，也许情况会平静下来，我们将继续看到一种系统的迅速方法，但这也可能是其中的转折点。
