Intro2Logic 04/06/25 7:29:14 AM #1:	In the early hours of Saturday morning, Musk took to his social media platform X to launch an apparent attack at the presidents senior trade counselor, taking jabs at Navarro under a video in which he explained the Trump administrations logic in levying tariffs during a CNN appearance. A PhD in Econ from Harvard is a bad thing, not a good thing. Results in the ego/brains>>1 problem, Musk wrote in one post. (Navarro earned a PhD in economics from Harvard in the 1980s.) The Department of Government Efficiency head replied to another users comment on the video lauding Navarros explanation, writing of the economist: He aint built shit. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/04/05/elon-musk-peter-navarro-tariffs-00006930 Tech mogul Elon Musk, who has served as a close advisor to President Donald Trump, on Saturday broke with the president's decision to impose expansive tariffs on most foreign nations, saying that he hopes to see a "zero tariff situation" between the United States and Europe. "I hope it is agreed that both Europe and the United States should move, ideally, in my view, to a zero tariff situation, effectively creating a free trade zone between Europe and North America," Musk told "The League Congress" on Saturday, an event hosted by right wing Italian Deputy Prime Minister Matteo Salvini. "That's what I hope occurs, and also more freedom of people to move between Europe and North America if they wish, if they wish to work in Europe or wish to work in America, they should be allowed to do so, in my view. So that has certainly been my advice to the president," Musk added. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/elon-musk-zero-tariff-free-trade-zone-europe-rcna199849 --- Have you tried thinking rationally? <cite>Intro2Logic posted [p:984618384] in Rift forms...

UnsteadyOwl 04/06/25 7:56:08 AM #6:	He's doing that thing Trump supporters constantly do where anything he does they don't like they blame it on somebody else in his administration giving him bad advice or even purposely trying to sabotage him. Even though if that were true it would mean Trump is constantly getting duped into hiring people who are either incompetent or actively working against him. --- "It is possible to commit no mistakes and still lose. That is not a weakness. That is life." <cite>UnsteadyOwl posted [p:984618504] in Rift forms...

ai123 04/06/25 8:03:09 AM #8:	Thing is, I could probably believe Musk is a globalist free-trade supporter (when it's in his interests, which of course it mostly is). He's a racist, nazi sociopath with the mentality of a 4chan troll, but his agenda will be a little different from the nationalist America First crowd. And that will lead to conflict. --- 'Vinyl is the poor man's art collection'. Let in the refugees, deport the racists. <cite>ai123 posted [p:984618543] in Rift forms...
