Well third is a joke since there are so many others including the Green party, Libertarians, and hey Andrew Yang how is that Forward party thing working out? Elon Musk is a joke when it comes to politics. He has totally trashed the Tesla brand after getting involved with getting Trump re-elected. Democrats loved the idea of electric vehicles for climate reasons so of course the GOP hated them. Then He endorsed Trump and spent $250 million to get him elected so he was a MAGA fan-favorite. They were buying his expensive exploding cars left and right while Democrats were like "sorry I bought this car before he went crazy". And then he criticized Trump and they had their first big falling out and suddenly the GOP didn't like Elmo or Teslas any longer. Now after fight #2 Elmo has decided to create the "America" party as an alternative to traditional Republican and Democrat parties. Like why? What is the point? I get that the guy has more money than he could possibly spend in his life but go use it to do something good and useful. Go feed the homeless. Go fund animal shelters. Go do something that will actually help fellow living beings. Who would follow him in that America party? He hasn't been political until the past year. His DOGE bullshit was a disaster that hurt more Americans than helped them. He is a naturalized citizen so to even call it the "America" party is ironic. Hey bro has plenty of money to spend but personally I think it could be used in much better ways.

I don't think that is what he wants but wants to promote certain politicians who didn't vote to increase the debt or this awful budget bill.

He should have called it Elmo. That's all. Nothing else

We haven’t had a successful “third party” since the Whigs. Although I think that it might help restore normalcy. Remember, the current GOP is built on the ashes of the failed Tea Party.

Many people from other countries have openly voiced that the US is a true circus. And sadly, they are correct.

Although maybe the US needs another political party, it seems that one created by Musk is as bad as the way the Republicans have done it with Trump heading them.

Not a lot of knowledge on the US politics but I do like Andrew Yang actually when he had correctly pointed out that a trade war would hurt both China and US as well as the rest of the world which is essentially true.
