Elon Musk rips ‘moron’ Trump trade adviser Peter Navarro: ‘Dumber than a sack of bricks’

Navarro is the trade advisor

Musk should stay in his lane

Navarro belittled Musk's company with lies, so I think some lane encroachment is appropriate.

[know.your.why]

Elon Musk has a Phd in trolling tactics. Never disappoints. Peter Retardo...effing perfect!

[TangoLimaSierra]

Time to send Elon back to So Africa.

Why? You lose your job at USAID? Is he finding too much corruption?

Besides, Elon was born in SA, grew up in Canada and the US. He is a US citizen.

Peter Navarro is great American and patriot. You , not so much.

[CatHerd]

Same here! All’s well that ends well, FRiend!

[9YearLurker]

He’s all in on the dark enlightenment, techno-feudal, globalist empire.

No, thanks. He is also a South African and Canadian citizen and only spent a few years in Canada before settling here.

If I’m incorrect, shouldn’t Trump be very angry at Musk about it?

[9YearLurker]

Yes, but he has a few more critical things to be focused on right now.

Peter Navarro invented an expert named "Ron Vara" who he's cited a number of times. I don't know if he did it facetiously, but the fact is he did it in six of his books and it wasn't widely known to be phony till 2019 when an Australian trade researcher uncovered it.

Sounds about right.

He's one of those who pushed the narrative that the Vice President has power to reject Electors and issue an order to send them back to the States. No such thing exists or has ever existed - every bit as authentic as "Ron Vara."

Nonetheless, his trade views don't have 0 merit - but it was far better when it was balanced with Larry Kudlow's expertise in the mix.

Lie.

Never saw that from Navarro. His writings on electoral fraud are dead on. Who DID say that was John Eastman? Maybe you should look that up. CA fwiw- took Eastman’s law license. In most other ways Eastman is a true Constitutional Scholar, hated by RINOS and their handmaidens of Demonrats.

[Republican Wildcat]

Lie.

Beyond easy to look up and verify. It was even posted here at the time.

Have a nice day.

Can we tune Musk down from 11 ...

Sometimes the Alpha males need to stop posturing and realize they are only there to "Win one for the Gipper."

[Republican Wildcat]

There is and was never anything in the Constitution, the laws governing the process, or Congressional rules governing the process that allowed for that. Read it. No one making that argument ever cited where it exists...because it doesn’t.

[central_va]

"The Constitution gives a vice president, as president of the Senate, only one role, which is to open envelopes," Neumann said. "The vice president’s constitutional duty to open envelopes is ministerial."

Is that your position?

[John S Mosby]

Naw- you and Eastman get together and chat. The creation of the Electoral College (Hamilton) in Federalist papers come to mind.

[Kleon]

A takedown of a fraud like Navarro by someone like Musk is LONG past due.

“Trying to drive wedge in the MAGA team?”

You’re confusing me with Musk or Navarro.

[central_va]

Can you tell us who you work for?
