In a dramatic political twist that could shake the foundations of American politics, Elon Musk has officially launched a new political movement The America Party marking a sharp and very public split from his former ally, Donald Trump.
The billionaire tech mogul made the announcement on Saturday via his X platform (formerly Twitter), declaring that “the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.” The decision follows a bold online poll Musk posted on July 4, asking his millions of followers if they supported the creation of a new party. With 65.4% voting “yes,” Musk didn’t hesitate.
“By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!” Musk wrote. “When it comes to bankrupting our country with waste and graft, we live in a one-party system, not a democracy.”
The formation of the America Party comes after months of rising tensions between Musk and Trump. Once close allies with Musk even serving as a high-profile advisor in the White House and heading the Department of Government Efficiency their friendship has unraveled in spectacular fashion, fueled by online jabs, political disagreements, and clashing egos.
What was once a partnership hailed as the fusion of tech and power has turned into an open feud, with both men using their platforms to trade increasingly personal attacks. Now, Musk seems to be betting that America is ready for something different something beyond the entrenched left vs. right battle.
While details about the party’s platform remain limited, Musk’s rhetoric suggests a focus on cutting government waste, expanding personal freedom, and challenging the traditional two-party system he calls “broken beyond repair.”
Whether Musk’s America Party becomes a true political force or a headline-making experiment remains to be seen but one thing is certain: American politics just got a lot more unpredictable.
