内容要点
- 特朗普称伊朗战争结束后通货膨胀将会下降,理由是石油供应中断
- 共和党人担忧通货膨胀引发的选民 backlash 会损害中期选举选情
- 分析师警告,即便霍尔木兹海峡重新开放,油价震荡可能仍将持续
华盛顿,6月10日(路透社)——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周三在被问及通胀数据时,似乎对通胀率超过4%的情况表示认可,他对记者称自己“喜欢通货膨胀”,并重申他相信伊朗战争一结束,物价就会回落。
当被问及美国政府数据显示5月消费者通胀达到三年来最快增速,以及这是否会在11月中期选举数月前拖累其所在共和党时,特朗普表示:“我喜欢通货膨胀。”

总统随后解释了他如何批准一项秘密派遣油轮通过霍尔木兹海峡的计划,理由是担忧成本上涨和通胀加剧。“这对我来说是值得的,”特朗普在谈及自己的考量时称此次行动取得了成功。
“当这场战争结束时,你会看到油价跌回之前的水平,”特朗普谈及这场大规模战事时说道,“它会下跌的。会像石头一样直线下跌。”
特朗普称对伊朗的战争是一次绕行,并将其定性为国家安全问题,因为德黑兰封锁这条关键航运路线推高了汽油、化肥和其他商品的成本,加剧了通货膨胀。

高企的物价还可能阻碍美国联邦储备委员会降息,而降息本可降低借贷成本,这也是特朗普自去年重新掌权以来一直呼吁的举措。
共和党人正寻求保住对美国众议院和参议院的控制权,但担忧生活成本仍是选民最关心的问题,选民的不满可能会将政权拱手让给民主党。
特朗普本人在2024年总统大选中胜选,很大程度上得益于他降低通胀的承诺,但此后他的支持率——包括民众对其处理生活成本问题的认可度——已降至其政治生涯的最低点。
恢复霍尔木兹海峡油轮通航以运送货物的努力迄今陷入停滞,行业高管和分析师警告称,未来几周可能再度出现严重的油价震荡,足以撼动整体金融市场。

即便特朗普和德黑兰很快达成协议,恢复石油供应预计也需要数月时间,供应链中断预计将持续至2026年。尽管美国人可能比其他国家民众更能抵御燃油价格冲击,但持续高企的能源价格可能会逐渐削弱消费者支出。
上个月,特朗普在推动协议的同时威胁要再次打击伊朗,他表示美国人的财务困境并非考量因素:“我不会考虑美国人的财务状况。我谁都不考虑。我只考虑一件事:我们绝不能让伊朗拥有核武器。”

Summary
- Trump contends inflation will drop after Iran war ends, citing oil supply disruptions
- Republicans fear inflation backlash could hurt midterm election prospects
- Analysts warn oil price shocks may persist even if Strait of Hormuz reopens
WASHINGTON, June 10 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump on Wednesday appeared to embrace data showing inflation has risen more than 4%, telling reporters that he “loved” inflation and reiterating his belief that prices will fall as soon as the Iran war ends.
Asked about U.S. government data showing consumer inflation increased at its fastest pace in three years in May, and whether it could hobble his fellow Republicans just months ahead of November’s midterm election, Trump said: “I love the inflation.”

The president then explained how he greenlit a plan to secretly move oil tankers through the Strait of Hormuz over concerns of higher costs and increasing inflation. “It was worth it to me,” Trump said about his calculus and calling the operation a success.
“When it’s over, you will see oil drop to where it was before,” Trump said of the larger war. “It’s coming down. It’s going to come down like a rock.”
Trump has called the war on Iran a detour and framed it as a national security issue as Tehran’s closure of the key shipping route has pushed up the cost of gasoline, fertilizer and other goods, contributing to inflation.

Higher prices could also keep the U.S. Federal Reserve from cutting interest rates, which could lower borrowing costs, which Trump has called for since returning to power last year.
Republicans are seeking to maintain control of the U.S. House of Representatives and the Senate but are concerned a consumer backlash could hand the reins to Democrats as the cost of living remains a top issue for voters.
Trump himself won the 2024 presidential election in large part because of his promise to lower inflation, but has since seen his approval rating, including on his handling of the cost of living, fall to the lowest level of his political career.
Efforts to reopen the Strait of Hormuz to tanker traffic to move goods have so far stalled, with industry executives and analysts warning that coming weeks could see another oil price shock severe enough to shake the broader financial markets.

Even if Trump and Tehran reach a deal soon, it is expected to take months to get supplies moving, with the disruptions expected through 2026. And while Americans may be more insulated from fuel shocks than other nations, ongoing higher energy prices could dent consumer spending over time.
Last month, Trump said Americans’ financial struggles were not a factor as he pushes for a deal even while threatening renewed attacks on Iran: “I don’t think about Americans’ financial situation. I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing: We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon.”
