Trump Slams Elon Musk’s New Political Party as ‘Ridiculous’

Report by “Safarti Tarjuman” International News Desk

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump dismissed Elon Musk’s plans to launch and fund a new political party as “ridiculous” on Sunday, sharply criticizing the billionaire entrepreneur’s political ambitions.

“Third parties have never worked, so he can have fun with it, but I think it’s ridiculous,” Trump told reporters while returning to the White House from his New Jersey golf club.

In a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform, Trump elaborated on his frustration with Musk, saying the Tesla and SpaceX founder had gone “completely off the rails” in recent weeks.

The president argued that third parties only fuel “complete and total disruption and chaos,” taking a swipe at Musk’s political motivations. Trump claimed Musk’s push for a new party was driven by anger over Trump’s efforts to end government subsidies for electric vehicles.

Musk has not publicly responded to Trump’s remarks but has defended his proposed “America Party” as a way to break what he describes as a “two-party stranglehold” on American democracy.

Observers say the clash highlights growing divisions among influential figures on the American right, as Trump seeks re-election and Musk positions himself as an independent power broker in US politics.
