中方代表团的专机尚未落地美国，特朗普方面却突然宣布延长对华商品关税豁免期。这份"重大福利"到底是单纯的经贸调整，还是与他长期传出的访华计划 有关？毕竟一边是商务部副部长李成钢将赴华盛顿谈判，一边却出现美方提前放松关税的信号，时机似乎有些过于巧合。 先把这次关税豁免到底有多特殊说清楚。这是自中美贸易战以来，特朗普政府第二次延期对华关税：上一次把5月底的期限延长到8月底，如今再推到11月 底。但这次有点不同——恰好处在中方谈判代表团即将赴美之际，时间点更具象征意义。 要不是出于纯粹的经济考虑，为什么会把时间安排得如此微妙？经过分析，里面显然埋藏着特朗普的多重打算，至少可以从三个方面看出端倪。 第一点，特朗普希望通过关税豁免实现"双轨保全"：一方面稳住农业票仓，另一方面安抚企业界的情绪。多年来，美国的农业州在贸易摩擦中吃了不少亏， 这些州构成了特朗普的基本盘，选民对改善对华经贸的呼声日益强烈。如果不作出回应，中期选举的票源就会受损。 不仅如此，科技领域的企业压力也在累积。像苹果、特斯拉这样的公司，其零部件大多依赖中国供应链，关税上涨直接抬高了成本。这些企业的游说力量强 大，特朗普自然不敢轻易得罪。因此，延长关税豁免 ...
