President Trump hits back at Elon Musk's 'ridiculous' America Party plans
Jul 08, 2025
Washington [US], July 8: US President Donald Trump has hit back at his former adviser, tech billionaire Elon Musk, over plans to form a new political party.
"I am saddened to watch Elon Musk go completely 'off the rails,' essentially becoming a TRAIN WRECK over the past five weeks," Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth Social on Sunday.
"He even wants to start a Third Political Party, despite the fact that they have never succeeded in the United States - The System seems not designed for them." Earlier on Sunday, Trump told reporters Musk's plan was "ridiculous" and touted the "tremendous success" of the Republicans.
Musk said on Saturday that he had decided to form his own US political party, naming it "America Party." (DPA)
