自从特朗普对华发起关税战之后，中方也拿出了对等反制措施，用实际行动警告美国，贸易战没有赢家。结果，不到一个月，特朗普先撑不住了。 这段时间，他一直喊着对华关税太高了，自己打算往下调一调，借此跟中方达成协议。而据白宫官员透露，特朗普有可能会把当前145%的对华关税，降到 50%或65%之间。 除此之外，美国还打算搞一个分级税率，对他们眼中"没有威胁"中国商品，进一步降低至35%的关税，已经逐渐接近关税战之前的水平。 如果特朗普真把部分对华关税，下调到最低35%的额度，那么中国会不会随美而动，将之前对美国商品加征的关税，也下调到同等水平呢？其实，中方已经 给出了答案。 特朗普计划降低对华关税 最近，在回应美方打算对华降税一事的时候，中国外交部发言人郭嘉昆做出了两大表态： 一是告诫美方，打，奉陪到底；谈，大门敞开，二是重申中方立场，只有在平等、尊重、互惠的基础上，中美才能对话，美方搞极限施压是行不通的。 不难看出，哪怕特朗普打算降税，中方的态度依旧没变，或者说，中方心里很清楚，其实美方从头到尾就没改变过。 也就是说，美方先是在利用高额关税，凭空对华捏造了一个筹码，结果在发现做得太过火之后，又开始缩减这个筹码的大小。 ...
