President Donald Trump suggested this week that he believes erstwhile adviser Elon Musk’s attempt to launch a third political party would be beneficial to him.

Late last week, Musk said he would be creating the “America Party” in response to the Trump-backed One Big Beautiful Bill Act being signed into law, although details about the party have not been revealed, and no federal filings have been submitted.
