Elon Musk announced the formation of a new political party in the United States, named the America Party, to address concerns over the country's one-party system. He criticized the political status quo, suggesting it leads to waste and graft while undermining democracy. Musk conducted a poll to gauge public interest in an alternative to the two-party system, which showed significant support for a new political party. His tensions with Donald Trump re-emerged due to disagreements over spending legislation, further motivating Musk's political ambitions.
"When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste & graft, we live in a one-party system, not a democracy," the SpaceX and Tesla boss posted on X.
"Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom," Musk stated, positioning his new party as a response to U.S. political dissatisfaction.
Musk's poll revealed that by a factor of 2 to 1, respondents want a new political party, which further fueled his decision to launch the America Party.
"We'll have to take a look," was a response to Trump’s threats to deport Musk, signifying escalating tensions between the two figures.
