Tesla CEO launches new 'America Party': 'The middle has a voice now'
PTC News Desk: In a sensational twist to the Trump-Musk fallout saga, the Tesla CEO launched his own "America Party".
Musk on Saturday critiqued the US' current political scenario over the lack of options, saying "we live in a one-party system, not a democracy."
The newly formed America Party, which touts itself as "The party that actually represents America!" in a post on X said, "We've tried red. We've tried blue. America is ready for something that actually works. America Party -- The middle has a voice now."
Among the series of posts included one that read, "The silent majority isn't silent anymore. This is the moment everything shifts. The America Party is now here -- and it's the answer to a system that stopped listening."
This comes after Musk conducted a poll on the social media platform X, asking users whether he should start a party, to which 65 percent of them agreed.
"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 wrote on X.
Musk musing for the party started after a massive meltdown between the US President and his former adviser over the "Big Beautiful Bill," which the former DOGE head had heavily criticised.
