tariff”>Elon Musk’s comments on a film that features a free trade security appear to support his attacks on pro-tariff groups inside the Trump administration.
Musk, who is also the de post head of the Department of Government Performance, has never participated in the White House‘s implementation of the tax program. He is an assistant to President Donald Trump. Some pro-tariff leaders, including White House business adviser , Peter Navarro, claim that the taxes are a remedy with staying power. However, the Trump administration’s messaging on whether the taxes are lasting has been mixed.
There is no ripp here, so NAVARRO SEEKS TO COOL TENSION WITH MUSK OVER TARIFFS.
Musk used a pencil as an analogy for how it would only be possible with such policies in place to post a video on X of Milton Friedman, an economist, who defends free trade on Monday morning.
” The impersonal operation of prices that brought together and got to work together to make this pencil so that you could have it for a trifling sum. The free market’s operation is therefore so crucial. In the video, Friedman explained all the pieces of the pencil coming from around the world, adding that not only to promote productive efficiency but even more, to foster harmony and peace among the peoples of the world.
Musk’s appointment comes days after he attacked Navarro for defending tariffs as a wise move by the Trump administration. Musk responded to a post on X with a video of Navarro discussing trade deficits and blaming nations for removing American factories and jobs.
In a post on X responding to the video, Musk said,” A PhD in Econ from Harvard is a bad thing, not a good thing. results in” the ego/brains>, >, 1 problem”
Navarro was later defended in a later response to Musk’s post, to which the billionaire responded,” He ain’t built s***.”
WHITE HOUSE ADVISORS ARE EXPERIENCED FOR TRUMP TARIFFS AS A PERMANENT OR A NEGOTIATING TACTIC.
Navarro was questioned about the remarks made on Fox News ‘ Sunday Morning Futures and whether there had been a rift within the administration. He retorted that Musk was “pursueing his own interests,” noting that he” sells cars.”
” So that’s fine,” There is no rift in this area. Elon, look, he has X, he has a big microphone, and we don’t mind him saying anything, but Americans need to understand that we understand what that’s all about, which is fine. It’s fine, Navarro said.
