Lot of dumb fucks commenting on this.
This can split maga, dummies. This is potential for something helpful, and unlikely to become a major long term threat (less likely than 100%, anyway).

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Oh, cool. We're finally not a two-party system! This will go nowhere. And even if it went somewhere, all the joiners would be losers like him.
Give me a Leftist party, headed by Zohran and backed by Bernie and AOC and I'll get excited.
Ketamine party?
Nuke Mars 2028
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Party of one
The guy who “finessed” the election for trump now wants to start a new political party…
The trump party can’t call out illegality any elections that this new party may “finesse,” without admitting to taking advantage of that same strategy last year.
This will probably all fail in a completely boring and unsatisfying way, but I’m still hoping for total collapse of both parties.
Logic doesn't work for people trapped in a cult. They can claim whatever they want and don't need to admit anything, it doesn't matter. 😔
Cool, will this be like the "Coffee Party" or the "No Labels" or the "Tea Party"?
A place to corral the so-called "independents", LOL?
Next: petulant billionaire rant threatens to take his ball and go home when nobody wants to join his club in his treehouse with a “No girls” sign over the door.
*frantically grabs popcorn*
Ok Ross Perot.
Lol this man child is so out of touch with the reality that he thinks those who want out of a two party system would vote for a wanna be fascist giving a Nazi salute. He is in for a disappointment.
Whelp I hope he fails, otherwise his personal bigotry will fuck me
Elon is so basic. Of course he would use the most generic name imaginable.
I'm surprised it's not X party.
Teddy would never.
Frankly, I'm a bit surprised he didn't call it the x party.
Could call it American X. Although it needs to sound like it has some background, maybe mention history. American History X, perfect! Only positive associations there.
As someone who hated how whiney and annoying he was in terminator 2, I love that movie for ending with Eddie furlong dying in a urinal.
When they said he was forming one, I assumed it would be that
Xtreme Politics!
He thinks we’re stupid.
The voters chose Trump after all, I think his assessment is pretty accurate.
Maybe he's born with it or maybe it's ketamine.
How many of the votes in favour of him creating a new party do we think are just Elon's bots?
Probably 0. He didn't need to because he asked his fanboys which of course were going to say yes
Wonder how Andrew Yang is feeling today.
If we can get more widespread ranked choice voting because of this, that would probably be the best outcome. Second best outcome would be to split the red votes.
I didn't look at it this way at all, but you're absolutely right.
Yeah he's an idiot and his party is stupid, but I see it as a net benefit. He'll either peel votes off Republicans, or he'll get RCV.
Amerika Party.
The American Party and the Republican Party are fighting for voters. While Polymarket users are betting on who will get the most votes in the elections.
I wish it the same success Tesla had in Europe this year.
The flies are breeding in the carcass.
Ohhhh so that's where all those damn screwworms were going...
America party,
remind me what was the name of the nazi American party?
I'm wondering if fElon is going to issue some silver shirts. Taco has tainted red hats and skin heads/ Proud Boys (lol) have tainted Fred Perry gear...fElon probably needs a good shorthand to identify his own set of idiots.
he's rich enough to commission Hugo Boss to do nazi uniforms again.
They know nothing!
Aww, honey, look. Baby fElon is doing something naive again!
I'm getting real Clive Palmer vibes from this.
Good time to start a real progressive party maybe, as long as we're already fracturing.
