US President Donald Trump criticized the launch of a new US political party by multibillionaire CEO Elon Musk on Sunday. Musk, who until recently was close to Trump, announced the creation of the America Party in posts on Saturday, stating that the current one-party system is not a democracy but instead leads to waste and graft. Trump believes that starting a third party is ridiculous and has always been a two-party system. He also thinks that adding a third party adds confusion and introduces a system that has never worked. Despite his opposition, Musk is moving forward with his plans to challenge the dominance of the Democratic and Republican parties, which have been in power for over a century. However, Musk’s billions might not be enough to overcome the reality of ballot challenges that have faced previous third-party attempts.
