Breaking News: Elon Musk Considered Launching Own Political Party, America Party
In a shocking turn of events, billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk has announced his intention to form a new political party, the "America Party," if President Donald Trump’s "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" passes. Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has been vocal about his disapproval of the proposed bill, which he claims will lead to "insane spending" and increase the country’s debt by a record $5 trillion.
Musk, who was once a close ally of Trump, has had a dramatic falling out with the U.S. president in recent weeks. The two have been feuding on social media, with Musk accusing Trump of being "in the Epstein files" and criticizing his budget bill. Musk has also expressed his disappointment with the current political system, stating that the country needs an alternative to the "Democrat-Republican uniparty" that actually represents the people.
The proposed "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" has been met with criticism from various organizations, including the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget and the Congressional Budget Office. According to their analyses, the bill could potentially add $5 trillion to the country’s debt within the next decade, with the Congressional Budget Office predicting a more modest increase of $3.3 trillion.
Musk’s announcement has sparked a lot of interest, with many taking to social media to share their thoughts on the matter. The billionaire entrepreneur has also run a poll on X, asking if it’s time to create a new political party that represents the "80% in the middle." The poll garnered approximately 5.6 million responses, with around 80% responding in the affirmative.
However, it’s worth noting that Musk has a history of making pledges he’s been unable to keep. Despite his threats, it’s unclear whether he will actually follow through with forming a new political party. Additionally, even if he does establish the America Party, he will technically be unable to run for president himself due to his birth in South Africa.
As the situation continues to unfold, one thing is certain: Elon Musk’s announcement has sent shockwaves through the political landscape, and his intentions will be closely watched by politicians, pundits, and the general public alike. With his vast resources and influence, Musk’s potential entry into the political arena could have significant implications for the future of American politics. Only time will tell if the America Party will become a reality and what impact it will have on the country’s political landscape.
