美媒：特朗普2020年竞选旗子中国制造，加征关税前赶工！

President Donald Trump’s 2020 reelection banners are being made in haste at one Chinese flag factory as the fear of more tariffs loom.

因为担心即将征收的关税，中国一家旗帜工厂正在匆忙制造美国总统特朗普2020年的连任标语。

Workers in Fuyang, China have been busy at work, leaning over sewing machine tables, hemming the edges of Trump’s "Keep America Great!" banners and shipping them off. While the summer is usually the slow season at Jiahao Flag Co Ltd, the factory has packaged more than 90,000 of the iconic red, white and blue banners since March, according to Reuters.

在安徽阜阳一家旗帜工厂，女工们正用缝纫机缝制特朗普 “让美国保持伟大！” 的口号 ，其他女工则将旗子折叠捆起，准备发货。据路透社报道，夏季通常是佳豪旗帜有限公司生产的淡季，但自从今年3月以来，工厂已经生产了9万多面红白蓝标志的旗子。

Manager Yao Yuanyuan told the wire service that the increase is tied to the ongoing trade war with the U.S. Already, the U.S. has slapped tariffs on $34 billion worth of Chinese goods and last week, Trump signaled he could increase that to all $505 billion in goods that China imports.

工厂经理姚媛媛接受路透社采访时表示，这一增长与中美贸易摩擦有关，美国已经宣布对价值340亿美元的中国进口商品征收关税。上周，特朗普还威胁将对所有5,505亿美元的中国商品征收额外关税。

It’s closely related, Yao told Reuters. "They are preparing in advance, they are taking advantage of the fact that the tariffs haven’t gone up yet, with lower prices now."

“这是密切相关的，”她告诉路透社， “他们正在提前做好准备，利用关税目前还未增加这一情况，现在价格还比较低。”

While the banners are sold both within China and abroad, Yao said it unclear whether they are affiliated with Trump’s campaign or the Republican party. Reuters reports the factory doesn’t just make paraphernalia for the president but also sells American and rainbow flags.

虽然该工厂在国内外销售旗帜，但姚经理表示不清楚这些旗帜是否与特朗普的竞选活动或共和党有关。据路透社报道，该工厂不仅为美国总统制作旗帜，还销售美国彩虹旗。

Trump has taken a hard stance on trade, supporting U.S. made goods since he’s taken office but ironically many items he’s sold over the years through his multiple business ventures weren’t American made, including Trump’s vodka, shirts, ties, suits and eyeglasses.

自上任以来，特朗普在贸易方面采取了坚定立场，支持美国制造的商品。讽刺的是，多年来他从事商业活动销售的许多商品都不是美国制造的，包括特朗普的伏特加、衬衫、领带、西装和眼镜。

Items in his clothing line, hotels, home decoration line was made in countries including China, Mexico and Bangladesh.

特朗普生意上的服装、酒店、家居装饰等系列产品都在中国、墨西哥和孟加拉国等国家生产。
