Elon Musk announced his new political outfit, the ‘America Party,’ on Saturday against the backdrop of a strained relationship and public fallout with US President Donald Trump, his former ally.The agenda of this new party is aimed at challenging the ‘one-party system’, which Musk calls “formed to give you back your freedom”.The new announcement has sparked speculations about whether Musk would run for president in 2028 or who would be the other party leaders. Replying to X user who asked Musk about his election plans, “Midterms or 2028?”, to which he responded, “Next year”.Under current constitutional rules, Musk is ineligible to seek the presidency. Article II, Section 1 of the US Constitution requires presidential candidates to be natural-born citizens, which legally disqualifies Musk from running for the nation’s highest office.In 2024, Musk publicly acknowledged his ineligibility, stating, “I cannot be president because of my African birth.” He also said at the time, “My grandfather was American, but I was born in Africa, so I cannot be president.” While campaigning for the 2025 elections alongside Trump last year, Musk made his political ambitions clear when he said, “ I actually don’t want to be president. I want to build rockets and cars.” Musk committed to working on government efficiency if Trump is re-elected. He said, “I’m hoping that we get President Trump elected, and then I’ll work hard on the Department of government efficiency.” Cut to July 4, when Musk posted a poll on his social media platform X asking users whether they wanted “independence from the two-party (some would say uniparty) system.” The poll received over 1.2 million responses, with the majority voting in favour. Musk responded, “By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!”He also posted a meme depicting a two-headed snake with the caption “End the Uniparty,” indicating his push for an alternative to the traditional Democratic and Republican dominance in US politics.
