Elon Musk and Donald Trump (R) US President Donald Trump on Sunday dismissed Elon Musk’s newly launched political party, the “America Party,” calling the idea “ridiculous” and reiterating his faith in the traditional two-party system.When asked about Musk’s announcement, Trump said, “I think it’s ridiculous. We have a tremendous success with Republican party. The Democrats have lost their way but it’s always been a two party system.”He added, “Third parties have never worked, he can have fun with it.”Trump’s remarks came a day after Musk unveiled the America Party, aimed at challenging what he called the United States’ “one-party system.”The move by Tesla CEO followed Trump’s signing of the ‘One Big, Beautiful Bill’, a major legislative push early in his second term. Musk — once one of Trump’s biggest donors in the 2024 election — had a public fallout with the president after leading efforts to slash federal spending and jobs as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency.
