Yesterday, on July 4th, the American Independence Day, Musk initiated a poll on his X platform:
Today, the voting results came out, with about two-thirds of X users supporting Musk's establishment of a new political party.
Musk stated that he wants to align with the will of the people and, in opposition to the corruption and waste of the bureaucratic elite and for the freedom of the American people, he will establish the "American Party"!
His main political intention is that the "American Party" will concentrate resources on targeting 2-3 Senate seats and 8-10 House districts.
By leveraging the slight advantage in congressional seat allocation, he aims to play a decisive role in key legislation, ensuring it "reflects the true will of the people (and himself)."
After strong attempts to obstruct the "Big Beautiful Bill" link failed, Musk believes that the Democratic and Republican parties are essentially the same family.
Reports suggest he may invest up to 5% of his personal assets (about $19.5 billion) as startup capital, but this information has not been officially confirmed by Musk.
It's worth noting that he spent less than $300 million to help Trump get elected president~
From the situation of the passage of the "Big Beautiful Bill," it seems that as long as Musk can secure even one Senate seat, it will be enough~
According to Musk's historical tweets on X, the mission of the American Party is:
- Oppose wastefulness
Emphasizing the reduction of government waste, controlling the federal deficit, and optimizing public spending. Musk particularly criticized the current government's "extravagant" spending, believing it will harm the long-term stability of the American economy. - Represent the interests of the broadest populace
The American Party aims to attract "80% of moderates," those who neither support the far left nor the far right. Musk hopes to attract independent voters through data-driven and rational policies (according to a 2024 Gallup poll, 43% of American voters identify as independents). - Represent the direction of advanced productive forces
As a tech entrepreneur, Musk may incorporate technological innovation, artificial intelligence, and sustainable development into his political agenda. For example, he may support policies favorable to electric vehicles, renewable energy, and space exploration. - Break the bipartisan monopoly
The American Party aims to break the political monopoly of the Democratic and Republican parties through strategic campaigning, especially to exert influence in key congressional seats.
It seems the ideals are grand, but Musk has yet to disclose specific organizational structures, leadership teams, or candidate lists.
However, with Musk's influence, it should not be difficult to secure a few congressional seats in the midterm elections in 2026.
Because over a hundred years ago, there was also an American Party that even secured 5 Senate seats, creating the highest record for a third party.
Looks like Musk is really going to become Secretary Ma~
