Elon Musk, the billionaire tech magnate and CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has announced the formation of a new political entity called the America Party. The announcement was made through his social media platform, X, and has already ignited debate across the American political landscape.
In his declaration, Musk sharply criticized both the Republican and Democratic parties, accusing them of fueling national division, overspending taxpayer money, and failing to represent the broader interests of the American people. He referred to the current political system as a broken "machine" dominated by powerful elites who prioritize personal gain over national progress.
The creation of the America Party comes amid Musk’s growing disillusionment with traditional political structures. He emphasized the urgent need for a third political force that could disrupt what he called the stagnation of U.S. politics and restore integrity, transparency, and financial discipline in governance.
While Musk is constitutionally ineligible to run for President due to his South African birth, he has yet to disclose who might represent or lead the newly formed party. He also hasn’t confirmed whether the America Party has officially filed registration papers with the Federal Election Commission.
This political move marks a significant shift in Musk’s public role, transitioning from influential business leader and policy commentator to an architect of political realignment. Observers now await further announcements regarding the party’s platform, candidates, and strategy for challenging America’s entrenched two‑party system.
