‘America Party has been formed’: Elon Musk Target House, Senate seats; To run the votes of narrow Congress
A day after asking his followers on X about creating a new political party in the US, Elon Musk announced on Saturday that the “USA Party” was established.“Today, the US Party is created to give you its freedom back.”Shortly after the announcement of Elon Musk, President Donald Trump signed a tax-cut and spent a bill in the law on Friday, a step by Tesla’s CEO strongly opposed.In view of the narrow margin in the Congress, the new political party, which aims to balance power on major issues, has pledged by Musk, which can begin by targeting a select number of selected houses and Senate seats.A post after his pole musk stated, “One way to execute it would be for only 2 or 3 Senate seats and laser-focus on 8 to 10 house districts, who played a central role in the federal budget cut after Donald Trump’s second term in January.“Looking at 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.”However, he did not specify which seats he was eyeing. The spending bill passed the House by a margin of 218–214, siding with only two Republican Democrats, which were eventually unable to block it. In the Senate, a 50–50 tie was demolished by Vice President JD Vance, allowing Donald Trump to pass the bill a few hours before signing the law. The razor-thread margin in both chambers highlights how a handful of seats can swing important legislative results, a inaugural Elon Musk appears targeting with its newly announced party.On Friday, as the US had marked its 249th Independence Day, Elon Musk posted a pole on X seeking the followers whether they should proceed with their first resolution to start the US party as an alternative to both Republican and Democrats. By Saturday morning, more than 1.25 million users responded, with more than 65% voting in favor of the idea.“Independence Day is the right time to ask if you want freedom from two-party (some would call unipartly) system!” Musk added to the post.
