Elon Musk has finally lashed out at Donald Trump’s sweeping tariffs. The Tesla boss completely contradicted the US President when he said he hoped to see complete freedom of trade between the United States and Europe in the future.
Musk, a Trump adviser who has been working to eliminate wasteful US public spending, spoke via video-link at a congress in Florence of Italy’s right-wing, co-ruling League Party. He said: “At the end of the day, I hope it’s 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.”
