Former U.S. President Donald Trump has strongly criticized Elon Musk’s decision to launch a new political party called the “America Party,” calling the move “ridiculous.”
Emphasizing America’s long-standing two-party tradition, Trump said:
> “Our system has always been bipartisan, and the emergence of a third party will only confuse voters.”
Musk’s controversial decision to found a new party is seen as a direct reaction to Trump’s tax bill—a bill Musk claims is putting the U.S. economy on the path to bankruptcy.
At the same time, Trump also reacted to the appointment of Jared Isaacman, CEO of space company SpaceAdam and a close friend of Elon Musk, as the new head of NASA, calling the move “inappropriate.”
> “Someone with business interests tied to NASA should not be running the agency.”
Meanwhile, investment firm Azoria Partners announced it would postpone the public offering of the Tesla Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) until further notice. The company stated that Musk’s political engagement conflicts with his executive responsibilities at Tesla.
Musk’s creation of a new political party has sparked widespread reactions across U.S. political and economic circles. Analysts believe Musk’s direct entry into politics could significantly shift the balance of power in the upcoming elections.
