- On June 30, 2025, Elon Musk publicly threatened to form a new political party if a large spending bill passes, breaking with former ally Donald Trump.
- Musk's opposition stems from the bill raising the debt limit by $5 trillion and abandoning GOP principles of small government and fiscal restraint.
- Political experts note that third parties face funding challenges and struggle to compete with major parties despite widespread voter frustration and support for alternatives.
- A recent Musk poll drew over 5 million votes, with 80% supporting a new party to give voice to Americans disillusioned with the current political system.
- This emerging party effort reflects growing political unrest but will confront structural barriers, while the Republican and Democratic parties face internal discord and voter dissatisfaction.
