Nobel laureate Paul Krugman argues that tariff “chaos” and Trump's immigration policies are the real drag on growth by raising costs, freezing investment, and ultimately hitting consumers. He says a 1950s-style manufacturing revival is illusory, tariff revenue won’t fix the deficit, and U.S. trade-rule credibility has suffered lasting damage. On New York City politics, he expects only marginal policy shifts if Democratic nominee for mayor Zohran Mamdani wins.
 
诺贝尔奖得主保罗·克鲁格曼认为,关税“混乱”和特朗普的移民政策才是经济增长的真正障碍,它们通过提高成本、冻结投资并最终影响消费者来拖慢经济。他表示,50年代风格的制造业复兴是一个幻想,关税收入无法解决赤字问题,而且美国的贸易规则信誉已经遭受了长期损害。在谈到纽约市政治时,他预测,如果民主党市长候选人佐赫兰·曼达尼当选,政策只会有边际性的变化。
