Musk has had conflicts or disputes with too many people, thinking that the government is his own business and can reform whatever he wants. Politics requires compromise, and often requires a roundabout approach. Trump appointed him as a "special government employee" but thought he was the boss, hoping the government and others would act according to his opinion. On the contrary, Finance Minister Besant is a person who is particularly good at compromise. Although he does not support Trump's initial radical tariff policy, he does not criticize it, let alone scold it, he tries to ease it, and only speaks well of Trump to the outside world, ultimately making himself more influential.
