🚀 What Is the America Party?
Origins & Motivation: After the passage of the "One Big Beautiful Bill" — a major tax and spending package — Musk criticized both parties for fostering fiscal irresponsibility. He mounted a poll on X that drew around 1.2 million respondents, with roughly 60–80% endorsing the idea of a new party. He promptly dubbed this movement the “America Party” .
