Breaking: Elon Musk Launches ‘America Party’ Amidst Fresh Fallout With President Trump

Tech billionaire Elon Musk has announced the formation of a new political entity, the ‘America Party,’ a move that comes hot on the heels of a public and acrimonious split with US President Donald Trump. Musk revealed the party’s establishment on his social media platform X, positioning it as a direct challenge to the entrenched two-party system of Democrats and Republicans.

The announcement follows a period of escalating tension between Musk and Trump. The relationship, which previously saw Musk as a key financial backer and advisor, deteriorated rapidly after Musk departed his role leading the Department of Government Efficiency (Doge) in May. Their public spat intensified over Trump’s recently signed ‘big, beautiful bill,’ a massive legislative package focused on spending and tax cuts that is projected to add over $3 trillion to the US deficit. Crucially, the bill notably lacks provisions for green transition or subsidies that would benefit companies like Musk’s Tesla.

Musk’s decision to form the party was reportedly influenced by a recent poll he conducted on X, where users overwhelmingly favored the creation of a new political alternative. While the Federal Electoral Commission has not yet published documents indicating formal registration, Musk has framed the ‘America Party’ as a means to restore freedom and address what he calls a ‘one-party system’ when it comes to national debt.

Despite the high-profile nature of its founder, the ‘America Party’ faces an uphill battle. History shows that third parties in US politics struggle significantly to gain nationwide traction against the dominant Republican and Democratic forces, as evidenced by the performance of Green and Libertarian candidates in last year’s presidential election.
