Elon Musk says The bipartisan system was broken and he had just formed a new party to prove it.
Musk announced on Saturday on his own social media platform X that the formation of the “American Party” said it was a direct response to the corrupt political institution he described and no longer represents the American people.
The news comes after a viral poll on X on July 4, Musk asked voters whether they want to be independent of what he calls a “bipartisan (some would say Uniparty) system.”

More than 1.2 million votes were voted, with 65.4% of the vote saying “yes”.
“In a 2-1 ratio, you want a new party and you will have it,” Musk announced Saturday. “We live in a one-party system, not a democracy when bankruptcy with waste and grafting. Today, the American Party is formed to restore you to freedom.”

This move happened after the president Donald Trump The Big and Beautiful Act was signed at the White House on Friday.
The huge $3.3 trillion legislation includes tax cuts, infrastructure spending and stimulus, and has drawn criticism from fiscal conservatives and liberals. Although Musk did not mention the bill directly in his position as a U.S. party, the timing shows that the friction between billionaires and the president is rising. Musk had previously warned that unrestricted spending on both sides threatens the long-term health of the economy.
According to Musk’s post, the new party will target some key seats in Congress. The goal is to create a swing group that is strong enough to maintain balance of strength and to stop Musk from the worst oversight that Republicans and Democrats have been considered the worst.

In the comments section, some people voted on third parties to Conservatives and helped Democrats win more easily.
Conservative commentator Shawn Farash announced: “Your third party will disproportionately move from the right to the left and provide a more relaxed path to power for the left.”
Others like Joey Mannarino urged Musk to focus on reforming the Republican Party from within.
Critics also pointed out that X polls are informal, not limited to American voters, but are vulnerable to robotic influence.
The third party has Traditionally, the system has had a tough time in American politics because it was built for two dominant parties. With the help of the Election Academy, winners’ full-time elections and strict voting visit laws, outsiders cannot compete meaningfully. Even if a third-party candidate catches fire, it rarely lasts until one election cycle.

One of the biggest third-party efforts in recent history is Ross Perot’s 1992 game.
He received nearly 19% of the vote as an independent vote, but did not win a college vote in one election. It was the closest third-party candidate to the White House after President Teddy Roosevelt’s 1912 matchup against his famous Bulls Moose party against his Protégé William Howard Taft.
