Elon Musk calls Trump advisor Peter Navarro 'truly a moron' and 'dumber than a sack of bricks'
Elon Musk escalated his own sort of trade war Tuesday morning not against another country, but against President Donald Trump's top trade advisor, Peter Navarro.
Musk responded to a video of Navarro speaking on CNBC, writing in a post on X that "Navarro is truly a moron."
He followed up by saying: "Navarro is dumber than a sack of bricks."
Less than 20 minutes later, Musk shot out yet another insult, correcting another user's spelling of Navarro's name with a play on the R-word: "*Peter Retarrdo."
Tuesday's posts are the latest in a string of anti-tariff comments from Musk, who said over the weekend that America should establish a "zero-tariff" system with Europe. Musk, who has been heading up Trump's Department of Government Efficiency, did not respond to a request for comment from Business Insider. A representative from the White House directed BI to a post on X quoting the press secretary Karoline Leavitt's response to the recent insults.
