Trump’s former trade advisor Peter Navarro just went scorched-earth on Elon Musk, calling him “a spoiled brat” who’s “selling America out to China.”

Musk fired back, mocking Trump’s trade war and bragging that his companies “do more for America than Navarro ever has.”

Let them fight, right? Not so fast.

This feud isn’t about values. It’s about ego, power, and profit—and both of them are still hellbent on reshaping America in their image.

Don’t forget:

• Elon Musk openly platforms white nationalists and neo-Nazis on X
• Peter Navarro was convicted for refusing to cooperate with the Jan. 6 investigation
• Musk boosted Trump’s lies about the 2020 election
• Navarro helped plan the economic chaos we’re still feeling today

These guys may be throwing punches now, but they’re on the same authoritarian team—and they’ll gladly rally around Trump if it means crushing democracy and enriching themselves.

Daily Kos exists to call out this toxic movement—no matter what mask it wears. We expose the power grabs, the hypocrisy, and the danger behind the headlines.

But we can’t do it without you. Chip in $5, $25, or whatever you can right now to help us keep this fight alive.

The media treats Musk like a “tech visionary” and Navarro like some policy wonk. We know better. These are dangerous men with dangerous ideas—and they’re still shaping the 2026 battlefield.

We need you with us. Let’s make sure the truth breaks through.

Keep fighting,
