President Trump’s tariff policy has sparked a public feud between trade adviser Peter Navarro and senior advisor Elon Musk, according to Axios. Navarro dismissed Musk’s tariff concerns as self-serving, prompting Musk to mock Navarro’s intelligence and credentials in now-deleted online posts. Musk has little influence over Trump’s tariff policy, and as a globalist with business ties to China, he stands in stark contrast to Navarro’s hardline stance. While all senior advisers support tariffs in principle, internal debate centers on their scope.
