“The United States was more than just a nation. It's a brand, it's a universal brand, whether it's our culture, our financial strength, our military strength, America rose beyond just being a country — it was like an aspiration for most of the world, and we're eroding that brand right now.”
— Ken Griffin, the C.E.O. of Citadel, speaking yesterday at Semafor's World Economy Summit in Washington. He added: “I'll tell you what's not going to happen is people are not going to race to build manufacturing in America, because with the policy volatility, you actually undermine the very goal you're trying to achieve.”
“美国不仅仅是一个国家。它是一个品牌，是一个全球性的品牌，无论是我们的文化、我们的金融实力、还是我们的军事力量，美国已经超越了一个国家的范畴——它成为了世界大多数人心中的一种向往，而我们现在正在蚕食这个品牌。”
