沃德伍德在《恐惧:白宫里的特朗普》(Fear: Trump in the White House)一书中有过这样的描述。科恩与莱特希泽早就想从知识产权的角度用301调查来联合欧洲丶日本丶加拿大等国家地区围堵中国(第41章),之后再去搞什么特朗普要的钢铁关税。特朗普一开始也觉得可以。但当习特会面后,特朗普觉得在朝鲜问题上必须依赖中国,命令自己就301调查演讲的写稿人把一切关于中国的措辞去掉,同时将相关的调查对象广泛化(第33章)“I don’t want to make it China-specific. Let’s just do it for the whole world.”所以特朗普后来之所以向各个国家一起开战,而不是只针对中国,与习特会直接相关。特朗普多次提到,与中国的贸易战要打,但是和习的友谊对他来说更重要。[9]
