Donald Trump’s Make America Great Again slogan has never been about effecting any real change at home. It’s always been about punishing adversaries — even allies — via tariffs, both real and threatened. While Mr Trump’s ability to disrupt the status quo is singular, he has no idea how to create a sustainable, long-term growth model for the US. But a spate of Democratic 2020 candidates, and even some Republicans, have. They want to Make America Great Again too, via radical shifts in economic thinking that represent a 21st century industrial policy for the US.
唐納•川普(Donald Trump)「讓美國再次偉大」(Make America Great Again)的口號從來都不是爲了在國內實現任何真正變革。它關心的總是通過加徵或威脅加徵關稅來懲罰對手——甚至盟友。雖然川普擾亂現狀的能力無人能及,但他對如何爲美國創造一種可持續的長期成長模式一無所知。但多位民主黨2020年總統大選參選人,甚至一些共和黨人,知道怎樣做。他們也希望「讓美國再次偉大」,方式是通過徹底轉變代表21世紀美國產業政策的經濟思路。
