President Trump's trade and tariff policies have plunged the U.S. into the heart of a global trade war, with some experts asserting that the economic impact is even 'worse than the pandemic.' Trump promised to lower prices 'from day one,' yet has instead implemented a massive tariff plan, which adds burdens on American consumers and undermines market confidence.

Recently, foreign capital has been rapidly withdrawing from U.S. assets, leading to a market value evaporation of trillions of dollars. While the unemployment rate remains low, economists generally believe the risk of a U.S. recession is increasing, with a 57% probability of occurring in the next year. According to a recent poll, 59% of Americans believe Trump's policies have worsened the economy, with 60% specifically noting rising living costs.

Moreover, tensions in trade have led to a sharp decline in Chinese exports to the U.S., with logistics orders dropping over 60% within three weeks, indicating further disruptions to supply chains. Trump's economic blueprint has been met with skepticism from experts, who question its feasibility and argue it offers little help for current cost-of-living issues.
