JAKARTA - Since the breakdown of US billionaire Elon Musk's relationship with United States (US) President Donald Trump, Elon Musk has repeatedly proposed forming a third party in the United States.
The purpose of forming this new party is to "let go" of the two-party system (Republic-Democrat) and affect decision-making of "controversial laws."
"Independence Day (US, July 4) is the right time to ask if you want independence from a two-party system ( SOMEONE says one party)! Should we form an American Party?" Musk wrote again, voicing on X, reported by ANTARA, Saturday, July 5.
He also attached a poll showing, until 13:40 GMT (20.40 WIB), 63.8 percent of nearly 150,000 people answered "yes."
Independence Day is the perfect time to ask if you want independence from the two-party (some would say uniparty) system!
Should we create the America Party?

"One way to implement it is to focus on only 2 or 3 Senate seats and 8 to 10 DPR districts," said the billionaire.
"Given the very thin legislative margin, it will be enough to be a decisive vote on the controversial law, ensuring that the law serves the people's true wishes," he continued.

He also threatened to ensure that lawmakers supporting the bill face challenges in their preliminary elections next year.
Trump then responded to Musk in a post on Truth Social, warning the tech entrepreneur that he might have to "close his business and return to South Africa."
The US president also proposed that cutting back support for the launch of rockets, satellites and electric car production could save the country's "a lot of money".
Trump suggested that DOGE, previously founded and led by Musk, "pay attention to this carefully."
Later, the US leader said Musk shouldn't be "playing with him."
