No thanks, Nazi.
Wonder how many losers who didn't vote or voted 3rd party will split the vote for Elon, ensuring continued Republican destruction.
Musk caused a lot of problems mainly while he was being self serving. He fired a lot of FAA leadership and mass laid off air traffic controllers. He wanted to steal a contract from Verizon for SpaceX. Aircraft incidents increased almost immediately. DOGE also led cuts at NOAA which NWS relies on. There was a surprise tornado in the midwest a couple of months ago and flash flood in Texas. These events claimed lives. I blame Musk. Musk is at least partially responsible for Trump gaining power whether he hacked vote tabulations or not.
There could not be a worse bad actor to be involved in our politics. I like the idea of a centrist party but want Musk to not be involved at all.
Musk and Centrist Party cannot be used in the same sentence. Dude is a nazi.
Well when the Republicans are far-right and the Democrats are right, a centrist party would be halfway in between them, so it does seem to be accurate.
Nah, he's just as far-right as the rest of the Nazis. He just disagrees on some points.
I don't disagree with that at all
Nobody: ...
Elon: this shit for some reason
If this works, it's game over for the Republican Party.
It's Musk, of course it won't work. But he might be able to grift money from it.
How do you sing up?
When did they forget he is an immigrant too?
Oh, wait... he's an insanely rich white immigrant... nevermind.
Divide the Trump base! Yes!
He is 100% not going to do anything. Oh he may say he will but they will never field a single candidate and support Republicans to the hilt. This is at best a way for him to grift
the tesla revenue stream is drying up - gotta find a new source
“Time for a new political party that actually cares about the people,” he said.
Yes, because Musk is the first person that comes to mind whenever "actually cares about the people" is mentioned. 🤮

America party
with this kind of creativity is anyone surprised that the cybertruck was so successful and universally loved? true genius savant
named after the US Nazi party.
"America first party"
America first has long been the GOP's motto anyway. you don't need separate parties; they're all the same.
The GOP and Democratic sychophants wish that they had renamed their party this first.

If it puts the hyper racist conservatives against the conservatives who tolerate the hyper racist conservatives I'm all for it.
I just want to see him actually keep his word and keep Republicans who voted for the big bill from getting reelected.
I did Nazi that coming.
American Nazi Party. Now that somehow brings up a New Order to the political game, doesn't it?
“It is obvious with the insane spending of this bill, which increases the debt ceiling by a record FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS that we live in a one-party country – the PORKY PIG PARTY!!” Musk said Monday.
“Time for a new political party that actually cares about the people,” he said.
This shit is hilarious. So he didn’t like the bill because it didn’t make enough cuts? Or is it that it provided too much money for ICE? Either way, he will have plenty of new party members. Stupid people eat this shit up.
he wasnt getting anymore gov't subsidies, probably.
He's just trying to apease the frustrated to get a voter base... But the real plan here is to dilute the democratic voter base even further cementing the republicants to stay in power.
If those party comes in 2nd, he'll just conceed and give his votes to the Republican candidate.
If they win, then hell just cozy up to Republicans anyway.
Remember RFK Jr when he ran as independent.
This is THE PLAN
i dont think hes drawing any dem supporters, rfk jr AND jill russian stein mostly drew republican voters, or people that "are undecided" i was following rfk jrs voter campaigns and he mostly got the people that usually dont vote, or the undecided and some republicans.
Damn, I had not considered that. I should have known that this was yet another ploy to keep fascism in power. I mean, after the Nazi salute, I should have kept that in mind when examining why he does what he does.

I think it's because it ended EV rebates or something? I try not to follow too closely.
Oh shit, I forgot about that part. I think you’re right.
Hopefully this will be like a first up tech startup where they are super successful for a while, then someone else comes along and does it better.
Hopefully it'll act as a spoiler against the republican candidate, opening the door for a progressive party to also form without causing a far-right candidate to get elected.

I'm hoping we get ranked choice voting more widespread because of it.

And there it is, the name/term “American” is forever negative.
South American?
“It is obvious with the insane spending of this bill, which increases the debt ceiling by a record FIVE TRILLION DOLLARS that we live in a one-party country – the PORKY PIG PARTY!!” Musk said Monday.
If you just want a small-government party, there's already the Libertarian Party.
2.4 Government Finance and Spending
Since all persons are entitled to keep the fruits of their labor, we oppose all government activity that consists of the forcible collection of money or goods from individuals in violation of their individual rights and strive for the eventual repeal of all taxation. To further that end, we call for the repeal of the income tax, the abolishment of the Internal Revenue Service and all federal programs and services not required under the U.S. Constitution. We oppose forcing employers to serve as tax collectors. We support any initiative to reduce or abolish any tax, and oppose any increase on any tax for any reason. To the extent possible, we advocate that all public services be funded or allowed to be provided in a voluntary manner.
2.5 Government Debt
Government should not incur debt, which burdens future generations without their consent. We support the passage of a “Balanced Budget Amendment” to the U.S. Constitution, provided that the budget is balanced exclusively by cutting expenditures, and not by raising taxes.
Don't think they'd be onboard with your anti-trans thing, though.
1.4 Personal Relationships
Sexual orientation, preference, gender, or gender identity should have no impact on the government’s treatment of individuals, such as in current marriage, child custody, adoption, immigration, or military service laws. Government does not have the authority to define, promote, license, or restrict personal relationships, regardless of the number of participants. Consenting adults should be free to choose their own sexual practices and personal relationships. Until such time as the government stops its illegitimate practice of marriage licensing, such licenses must be granted to all consenting adults who apply.
LP went full-on Trump on the last elections though. Also, they're pro-Russia but then again so is probably America Party.
