埃隆·马斯克(Elon Musk)周二就关税问题再次抨击彼得·纳瓦罗(Peter Navarro)，称唐纳德·特朗普(Donald Trump)总统的贸易和制造业高级顾问是“白痴”和“比一袋砖头还蠢”。
曾推动特朗普议程的特朗普高级顾问马斯克一直对纳瓦罗持批评态度，纳瓦罗是特朗普关税政策的设计师之一，他在媒体上为总统上周征收的导致世界市场暴跌的全面关税辩护。
马斯克周二的侮辱是在纳瓦罗称特斯拉首席执行官为“汽车组装商”而不是“制造商”之后，声称他的特斯拉汽车的关键部件来自海外。
这促使马斯克做出回应。
“纳瓦罗真是个低能儿。他在这里说的显然是假的。
他在第二个帖子中声称，“特斯拉拥有最多的美国制造的汽车。纳瓦罗比一袋砖头还笨”，并在帖子上贴上了纳瓦罗的把柄。
在周二的白宫新闻发布会上，当被问及这场争斗时，新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特称之为“男孩就是男孩”
“不，看，这显然是两个人，他们在贸易和关税问题上有着非常不同的观点。男孩就是男孩，我们将让他们的公开争吵继续下去，”莱维特说。“你们都应该非常感谢我们有历史上最透明的政府。”
马斯克周六早上对纳瓦罗的哈佛教育投下阴影。
在一名社交媒体用户发布了一个为纳瓦罗对白宫关税的解释辩护的剪辑，指出他在哈佛获得的经济学博士学位后，马斯克回应说:“哈佛的经济学博士学位是一件坏事，不是一件好事。导致自我/大脑> > 1的问题。”
在福克斯新闻频道频道“周日早间期货”的一次采访中，Navarro回应了Musk的帖子，他说:“Elon，当他在他的DOGE lane时，是很棒的，但我们明白这里发生了什么。埃隆卖汽车。他只是在保护自己的利益。”
“这里没有裂痕，”他补充道。“看，埃隆，他有X，他有一个大麦克风。我们不介意他想说什么就说什么。但是，美国人民需要明白，我们明白这是怎么回事，这很好。”
马斯克表示，周六在华盛顿通过直播向佛罗伦萨的意大利联盟大会发表讲话时，他向特朗普提供了关于关税的建议。
马斯克表示希望美国和欧洲建立“非常紧密、更强大的伙伴关系”，并尽快达成“零关税”政策。
“我希望这是一致的，欧洲和美国马斯克说:“在我看来，理想的情况是，我们应该实现零关税，有效地在欧洲和北美之间建立一个自由贸易区。”。
“我认为，如果人们愿意，如果他们希望在欧洲或美国工作，他们应该被允许在欧洲和北美之间自由流动。所以这当然是我给总统的建议，”他继续说道。
Musk and top Trump adviser feud over tariffs: 'Dumber than a sack of bricks'
Elon Musk took another shot at Peter Navarro on Tuesday over tariffs, calling President Donald Trump's top adviser on trade and manufacturing a "moron" and "dumber than a sack of bricks."
Musk, a senior Trump adviser who had promoted Trump's agenda, has been critical of Navarro, one of the architects of Trump's tariff policy who has made the rounds in media defending the sweeping tariffs the president imposed last week that sent world markets plunging.
Musk's insults Tuesday came after Navarro called the Tesla CEO a "car assembler" rather than a "manufacturer," claiming that key components of his Teslas come from overseas.
That prompted Musk to respond.
"Navarro is truly a moron. What he says here is demonstrably false," he posted on X.
He claimed in a second post, "Tesla has the most American-made cars. Navarro is dumber than a sack of bricks," and tagged Navarro's handle in the post.
Asked about the feud at Tuesday's White House press briefing, press secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed it as "boys will be boys."
"No, look, these are obviously two individuals who have very different views on trade and on tariffs. Boys will be boys, and we will let their public sparring continue," Leavitt said. "And you guys should all be very grateful that we have the most transparent administration in history."
Musk threw shade at Navarro early Saturday morning over his Harvard education.
After a social media user posted a clip defending Navarro's explanation of the White House's tariffs, pointing out his PhD in economics from Harvard, Musk responded, "A PhD in Econ from Harvard is a bad thing, not a good thing. Results in the ego/brains>>1 problem."
In an interview on Fox News Channel's "Sunday Morning Futures," Navarro responded to Musk's posts, saying, "Elon, when he's in his DOGE lane, is great, but we understand what's going on here. Elon sells cars. He's simply protecting his own interests."
"There's no rift here," he added. "Look, Elon, he's got X, he's got a big microphone. We don't mind him saying whatever he wants. But, just, the American people need to understand that we understand what that's all about, and it's fine."
Musk said he offered Trump advice on tariffs when he spoke via live stream in Washington to the Italy's League Congress Conference in Florence on Saturday.
Musk expressed his hope for the U.S. and Europe to create "a very close, stronger partnership" and reach a "zero-tariff" policy soon.
"I hope it is agreed that both Europe and theUnited Statesshould move, ideally, in my view, to a zero-tariff situation, effectively creating a free trade zone between Europe and North America," Musk said.
"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," he continued.
