What Peter Navarro said about Tesla CEO
Tesla CEO Elon Musk sharply criticized Trump administration trade advisor Peter Navarro over comments made during a CNBC interview. Navarro, a key figure behind President Donald Trump’s expansive tariff policies, brushed off Musk’s advocacy for "zero tariffs" between the United States and Europe. Dismissing the billionaire as a mere "car assembler" dependent on imported components, Navarro argued for shifting parts production to American soil.

Musk fired back on X, calling Navarro’s remarks "demonstrably false" and labeling him "dumber than a sack of bricks." In a post responding to a clip of the interview, Musk defended Tesla’s record, asserting, "Tesla has the most American-made cars." The sharp rebuke underscored a growing rift between the tech mogul and Navarro, whose tariff-heavy approach has been credited with shaping Trump’s economic agenda.

Navarro’s policy influence dates back to Trump’s first term, where he championed tariffs as a tool to revitalize U.S. manufacturing and bolster national security. However, the strategy has drawn mixed reactions, unsettling markets and disrupting global supply chains while fueling debates over its long-term efficacy.
