Elon Musk threatens to start new U.S. political party

[Mashable] Elon Musk may soon launch his own political party. The Tesla and SpaceX CEO has announced his intention to form the "America Party" if President Donald Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" passes, continuing to rail against what he calls "insane spending."

"If this insane spending bill passes, the America Party will be formed the next day," Musk posted to X on Monday. "Our country needs an alternative to the Democrat-Republican uniparty so that the people actually have a VOICE."

Previously a close ally of Trump, Musk has had a dramatic falling out with the U.S. president in recent weeks. The billionaire left his position as de facto head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) at the end of May and publicly criticised Trump's budget bill, with the two feuding on social media since. Musk even accused Trump of being "in the Epstein files," though he later said that he regretted his posts. Time will tell whether he regrets these ones as well.

#4 The solution is replacing the RINO GOPe with viable MAGA candidates. That is a question of recruiting which he could have taken. If he wanted to take a more cunning route, it would be to set up a Liberal party which would include the few classical liberals on the Left with the RINOs as the Socialist-Democratic Party implodes.

#7 Allies for a joint project, but otherwise their interests and management styles diverge sharply.
