Elon Musk Launches New Political Movement
Elon Musk revealed on social media platform X that he is forming a new political movement called the "American Party," intended to serve as an alternative to the traditional two-party system. This idea has already garnered interest from business figures, including billionaire Mark Cuban and investor Anthony Scaramucci, who have publicly supported Musk. Engadget reports on this development.
Cuban, who reacted to Musk's post with joyful emojis, indicated that he is collaborating with the Center for Competitive Democracy and is ready to assist Musk's party in getting on the ballots.
Scaramucci, who briefly served as communications director in the White House during Trump's presidency, offered to meet with Musk to discuss future steps. It is known that both businessmen previously supported Kamala Harris.
Musk stated that his "American Party" aims to secure 2–3 seats in the Senate and 8–10 districts in the House of Representatives. Currently, it is unclear whether the political entity has been officially registered, as some mentions in the Federal Election Commission appear dubious and coexist with humorous names like "Doge Party" and "American Meme Party."
