Trump's Potential Economic Team Is 'Least Impressive' In History, Says Economist Justin Wolfers: He Will 'Make Up Policy On The Fly'
Renowned economist Justin Wolfers recently expressed his skepticism about the competency of Donald Trump's economic team and the potential impact of his policies.
著名经济学家贾斯汀·沃尔弗斯最近对特朗普的经济团队的能力和其政策的潜在影响表示怀疑。
What Happened: Wolfers took to X on Wednesday, to voice his concerns about the economic team that would serve under Trump if he were to get re-elected. He stated, "The list of economists who've said they will willingly serve under Trump is the least impressive list of economists in history." He further criticized Trump's approach to policy-making and the lack of a competent economic team.
发生了什么：沃尔弗斯周三在X上发声，表达了他对特朗普连任后服务的经济团队的担忧。他说：“愿意在特朗普底下服务的经济学家的名单是历史上最不起眼的经济学家之一。” 他进一步批评了特朗普的决策方法以及缺乏能干的经济团队。

Trump's going to make up policy on the fly, and he doesn't have a remotely competent econ team. No serious Republican economist will work with him. pic.twitter.com/87eR33Ww0B— Justin Wolfers (@JustinWolfers) August 14, 2024

特朗普将即兴制定政策，而他没有一个拥有足够能力的经济团队。没有一个认真的共和党经济学家会和他合作。pic.twitter.com/87eR33Ww0B贾斯汀·沃尔弗斯（@JustinWolfers）2024年8月14日
Wolfers' comments come amidst a wave of discussion among economists regarding Trump's proposal to eliminate federal taxes on Social Security income. While some economists, like Steve Moore, co-founder of the Committee to Unleash Prosperity, have supported Trump's proposal, others have expressed concerns about the potential economic risks associated with his policies.
沃尔弗斯的评论出现在经济学家围绕特朗普提出取消社保所得联邦税的提议展开讨论之际。虽然像“释放繁荣委员会”的联合创建者史蒂夫·摩尔这样的经济学家支持特朗普的提议，但其他经济学家对他的政策可能带来的潜在经济风险表示关切。
Why It Matters: Trump's economic policies have been a subject of debate among economists. A group of 16 Nobel Prize-winning economists had earlier warned about the potential economic risks if Trump were to be re-elected for a second term. They cautioned that a second Trump term could lead to a resurgence of inflation.
为什么这很重要：特朗普的经济政策一直是经济学家们争辩的话题。此前，16位诺贝尔经济学奖获得者警告称，如果特朗普再次当选连任，可能会带来潜在的经济风险。他们警告称，特朗普的第二任期可能会导致通货膨胀的回升。
Furthermore, a survey conducted by The Wall Street Journal suggested that a potential win for Trump in the upcoming presidential election could result in a surge in inflation, deficits, and interest rates. Analysts have also warned that Trump's "America-first" policies could lead to a surge in global inflation.
此外，华尔街日报进行的一项调查显示，特朗普有望在即将到来的总统选举中获胜，这可能会导致通货膨胀、赤字和利率期货的激增。分析师们还警告说，特朗普的“美国优先”政策可能会导致全球货币的激增。
Wolfers' post on X reflects the concerns shared by many economists about the potential economic impact of Trump's policies and the competency of his economic team.
沃尔弗斯在X上发帖反映了许多经济学家对特朗普政策的潜在经济影响以及他的经济团队的能力所共有的关切。
