Elon Musk Launches 'The America Party' in Challenge to Donald Trump
Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla, has officially introduced his new political party, The America Party, aiming to provide an alternative to the existing two-party system in the US. Musk's decision follows a poll on his platform X and his strong belief in the need for a new political approach. He plans to focus on key Senate and House seats to influence legislation and potentially participate in the 2026 midterm elections.
Tesla founder and billionaire Elon Musk has announced the name of his new political party: The America Party. The South African-born tech entrepreneur aims to create a third major political party in the United States to challenge the Republican and Democratic parties.
After testing the party name through a poll on his platform X (formerly Twitter), Musk officially formed The America Party. He stated, 'By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it! When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste & graft, we live in a one-party system, not a democracy. Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.'
Musk outlined his strategy to bring his party into power by focusing on specific Senate seats and House districts. He suggested that winning a few key seats could influence legislative decisions in favor of the people's will. Musk hinted at running during the 2026 midterm elections.
Political parties in the US must register with the Federal Election Commission if they exceed certain fundraising thresholds. Musk previously spent $277 million supporting Donald Trump's 2024 election campaign but later criticized the president's policies.
