The rift between US President Donald Trump and SpaceX chief Elon Musk is widening. Once close allies, they are now publicly criticizing each other. Musk, who had heavily supported Trump’s past campaign, is now openly opposing him.
Amid this fallout, Musk hinted at entering politics. He posted a poll on X, asking if it's time to form a new party representing 80% of middle-class Americans. Over 400,000 people responded, with 83% supporting the idea.
Musk later shared a post titled The America Party, sparking speculation about the party’s name. Yet, Musk has not formally confirmed the move.
