What is America Party? Elon Musk’s new political front amid a decline with Trump; Pledge to fight debt, waste and two-sided control
Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and recently a close advisor of US President Donald Trump, has announced the formation of a new political party called the US Party. The step follows a dramatic division between the two on Trump’s controversial-and on—-law bill, which will make the country bankrupt.The CEO of Tesla and SpaceX announced on their social media platform, X on Saturday, Trump said in the law just a day after signing his “big, beautiful” bill. Musk, who had earlier threatened to form a new party when the bill passed, wrote, “Today, the party of America is formed to give you its freedom back.”
‘Freedom from two-sided systems’
According to Musk, the New America party’s goal will be a conservative force focusing on reducing government waste. In a survey, he shared on X with his followers, more than 65 percent of the 1.25 million respondents voted for the formation of the party. “Independence Day is the right time to ask if you want freedom from two-party (some will call unipartity) system!” He posted.Musk claims that the ‘Unipti’ will improve the shortcomings of both Democrats and Republicans.In a follow-up post, Musk said: “By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party, and you will have it! When it comes to insolvency with waste and grafts, we live in one-sided system, not democracy.”
‘Serve the true desire of the people’
Although Musk did not immediately provide details about the legal structure or leadership of the US Party, he designed an initial strategy. “One way to execute it will be for only 2 or 3 Senate seats and laser-focus on 8 to 10 house districts,” he wrote. “Given the razor-split legislative margin, it will be enough to serve as a decisive vote on controversial laws, to ensure that they serve the true desire of the people.,
‘Put Dogge on Elon’: Trump
Bill’s Criticism of the billionaire canceled tension with Trump, which was removed after the musk. However, the quarrel came back with full force as the bill was near approval. Musk warned that he would follow the primary challenges against every legalist supporting the bill.“Without subsidy, Elon would probably have to close the South Africa shop and head,” Trump said on the truth social, referring to the country of Musk’s birth. The President also told reporters in Florida, “We may have to put a dog on Elon.
One is third party Writable in us?
Despite the announcement, experts say that according to CNN, it is very difficult to create a strong third side in the US. By law, a new party does not need to register with the Federal Election Commission until it starts raising or spending money on federal elections. So far, there is no such record for the US party.In the past, third-party efforts in the US have received a difficult time support. A famous example was the 1992 presidential post of billionaire Ross Parot. He received around 19% of the popular vote, but no electoral college won the vote.During the 2024 presidential race, Musk was one of Trump’s largest financial backers, spending an estimated $ 277 million to support his campaign. He was rewarded with the role of a leadership in the newly constructed Government Efficiency Department (DOGE), which oversees the budget cut in federal programs. While Dogge claimed that there was a 190 billion dollar savings, a watchdog group estimated that taxpayers could cost $ 135 billion in a long time in a sudden cut.
