#MuskAmericaParty

Elon Musk has officially launched a new political party called the "America Party." He announced its formation on Saturday, July 5, 2025, a day after President Donald Trump signed what Musk referred to as the "One Big, Beautiful Bill," a piece of legislation Musk strongly opposed, calling it "debt slavery."

Musk had been hinting at the creation of a new party for weeks, particularly after a public falling out with Trump. He conducted a poll on his social media platform X (formerly Twitter) on July 4th, asking users if they wanted "independence from the two-party (some would say uniparty) system!" The poll results showed over 65% in favor of a new party.

The stated goal of the America Party is to challenge the current two-party system in the United States, which Musk refers to as a "one-party system" driven by "waste and graft." While specific detailed policies are still emerging, initial indications suggest the party will be fiscally conservative, focused on reducing government debt, modernizing the military with AI/robotics, promoting technology, reducing regulation (especially in energy), supporting free speech, and being pro-natalist, with "centrist policies everywhere else."

Musk has indicated that the America Party plans to strategically target a small number of Senate and House seats in the upcoming midterm elections, aiming to become the "deciding vote on contentious laws" and ensure they "serve the true will of the people."

It's worth noting that Elon Musk is not eligible to run for U.S. President as he is not a natural-born citizen. The formal registration of the party with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) is also unclear at this time
