A face-saving solution for Mr. Musk could be to set up a Swedish subsidiary under a different name that would run the workshops and allow collective bargaining.
But really, it looks a lot like the extra tariffs on China were a kind of face-saving way to climb down from the much more robust stance we had a few days ago.
Is there a bit of saving face here that actually, you know, something's got to give, we've got to actually stick by this guy because, you know, this was meant to be a massive new appointment?
