In a report by Bloomberg, it was revealed that former President Donald Trump was warned by his economic advisors about the potential negative impacts of imposing tariffs on China and firing Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, which could lead to empty shelves and financial turmoil. These warnings were given in the context of the 2020 presidential election, where Trump was trailing in polls. Despite initially considering these actions, Trump ultimately decided against them, a decision that was influenced by his advisors' concerns about the economic repercussions.
