特朗普总统声称贸易赤字比关税下降78%,但数据显示,2025年11月每月上涨95%,年度赤字上升4.1%。 President Trump claims a 78% trade deficit drop from tariffs, but data shows a 95% monthly rise in November 2025, with the annual deficit up 4.1%.

2026年2月19日, 总统唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)声称美国贸易赤字因关税(包括2025年4月实行的“解放日”税)下降78%。 On February 19, 2026, President Donald Trump claimed the U.S. trade deficit dropped 78% due to tariffs, including "Liberation Day" duties introduced in April 2025. 然而,商务部的数据显示,2025年11月赤字上升到568亿美元,每月增加95%,原因是进口增加和出口减少。 However, Commerce Department data shows the deficit rose to $56.8 billion in November 2025, a 95% monthly increase, driven by higher imports and lower exports. 经济学家说,早先的下降很可能是暂时因素造成的,2025年前11个月的赤字仍然比2024年高4.1%。 Economists say earlier declines were likely due to temporary factors, and the deficit for the first 11 months of 2025 was still 4.1% higher than in 2024. 美国与中国的贸易差距低于欧盟,而实际关税率达到近17%,为1932年以来的最高点。 The U.S. trade gap with China fell below that with the EU, while the effective tariff rate reached nearly 17%, the highest since 1932. 在最高法院审查使用1970年代紧急状态法来证明关税合理时,法律挑战依然存在,如果该政策被推翻,行政部门则准备替代措施。 Legal challenges remain as the Supreme Court reviews the use of a 1970s emergency law to justify tariffs, with the administration preparing alternatives if the policy is struck down.
