2. The full text of the latest speech by Trump's think tank: The essence

of the United States' "reciprocal tariffs"

Note: Since Trump took office again, he has introduced a series of incredible economic policies, especially the "reciprocal tariff" measures to impose tariffs on most countries around the world announced on April 2. According to market rumors, these policies are all from the thought economist Stefen Miran, who is now chairman of the White House Economic Advisory Committee. In November 2024, Stefen Miran wrote a so-called "Milan Report": "User Guide to Reconstructing the Global Trade System". The report is considered to be the behind-the-scenes theoretical guidance of a series of Trump's economic policies.

5. From eggs to iPhone: An unprecedented tariff war to slaughter middle-

class wallets

A tariff policy that is indiscriminately attacked triggered a global domino reaction, and US President Donald Trump informed the world in this way on his 100th day of his office: He is back. On April 3, Trump announced the US "reciprocal tariff" rate, involving more than 180 countries and regions. China, the EU, Vietnam, Taiwan, Japan, and India are among the top five of the "reciprocal tariffs" list. They are not the countries with the highest tax rates among the reciprocal tariffs, but they are still at the top of the list. This shows where Trump intends this round of US tariff stick.
