Elon Musk launches new political party in United StatesTesla CEO, Elon Musk, announced the formation of a new political party in the US, which he calls the “America Party,” aiming to upend what he labels as the nation’s entrenched “one-party system.”
The move marks a dramatic political shift for Musk, an ex-ally of US President Donald Trump, who was
previously one of the most prominent donors backing Trump.
The Tesla and SpaceX CEO made the announcement Saturday via a post on X. In his message, Musk accused both major parties of contributing to unchecked government spending and corruption, declaring that the country no longer functions as a democracy but as a unified political machine driven by waste and self-interest.
