Elon has disagreed with Trump’s tariffs the whole time Elon Musk masterfully explained the benefits of free markets and trade to Joe Rogan last time he was on:

@elonmusk @joerogan The problem is the countries you're trading with are not free markets This is actually a complicated issue

@elonmusk @joerogan A masterclass on comparative advantage.

Musk only did a partial explanation as he focused on the idealized, not the real. The nation that goes it alone on no tariffs/free trade is simply going being foolish. It's the same argument that the Fed keeps inflation down. Might be true on paper but has never worked in the real world.

@elonmusk @joerogan No such thing as a free market

@elonmusk @joerogan Why can't we buy BYD cars from China ? Elon wants slave labor from India

@elonmusk @joerogan Why is it okay for other counties to tarriff us, but not okay in reverse? This simple question not being answered is how I know they're lying.

@elonmusk @joerogan Of course he’s owned by the CCP
