Odaily星球日报讯 在刚过去的这个周末，当埃隆·马斯克在社交媒体上连番发文，批评特朗普总统主要白宫顾问之一推动的强硬关税计划时，他实际上已经越过了这位官员，直接向特朗普本人发出了呼吁。据两位知情人士透露（因涉及私下谈话，他们要求匿名），马斯克的这一干预尚未取得成效。不过，特朗普也表示对部分政策内容持谈判开放态度。 与此同时，马斯克在 X 平台上传了一段已故保守派经济学家米尔顿·弗里德曼的视频，视频中弗里德曼强调国际贸易合作的好处，称其为“价格的非人格化运作”，并以一支普通木铅笔为例，分析了其各类原材料的全球来源。（华盛顿邮报）

马斯克直接向特朗普本人呼吁要求撤销新关税，尚未取得成效

<Odaily> Planet Daily News: Over the weekend, when Elon Musk repeatedly posted on social media criticizing the tough tariff plan pushed by one of President Trump's main White House advisors, he actually went beyond this official and directly appealed to Trump himself. According to two informed sources (who requested anonymity due to private conversations), Musk's intervention has not yet been effective. However, Trump also indicated openness to negotiating some policy details. Meanwhile, Musk posted a video of the late conservative economist Milton Friedman on the X platform, in which Friedman emphasized the benefits of international trade cooperation, calling it the "depersonalized operation of prices," and used an ordinary wooden pencil as an example to analyze its global material sources.

Musk's direct appeal to Trump himself to withdraw the new tariffs has not yet been effective

The poll has now concluded, and among nearly 50,000 voters, 72.2% believe that "Musk supporting free trade" is more beneficial to the US economy.

<Odaily> Planet Daily News: Kevin Hassett, Director of the National Economic Council, stated that over 50 countries have contacted the White House to begin trade "negotiations". President Trump "has not attempted to destroy the market by destroying the U.S. market". Employment figures are expected to fluctuate after tariffs take effect. (Jintian)

More than 50 countries around the world have contacted the White House to start trade "negotiations"

<Odaily> Planet Daily News: Famous hedge fund manager Bill Ackman posted on social media, saying: Trump does not have enough time to reach an agreement before tariffs take effect. Therefore, I would not be surprised if I wake up on Monday and hear the president announce a delay in implementing tariffs to allow time for negotiations. "President Trump has drawn the attention of the entire world and our trading partners, emphasizing the importance of addressing unfair tariff systems that have harmed American workers and destroyed our industrial base for decades. This is an extremely important issue that needs to be resolved, and we finally have a president committed to solving it. However, this problem cannot be resolved in a few days, so why not pause and give the president time to properly address this critical issue and allow companies of all sizes to prepare for supply chain changes? The risk of not doing so is that a significant increase in uncertainty will lead to an economic recession, or even a severe recession. One thing is certain. Monday will be one of the most interesting days in our country's economic history."
