Elon Musk is attempting to manifest his “America Party” into existence. But who will join him? Elon Musk soft-launched a third party over the weekend, and so far, the billionaire seems to be manifesting his “America Party” into existence. Hard-launching the party, which he first posted about through a poll on X, would involve filing official paperwork, such as Federal Election Commission forms, and signing up to petition in individual states. Musk has not done those things yet.

The Suspects.... So, if this party were to actually materialize, who would possibly represent it? A number of politicians and operatives threw out a few names to WIRED: US representative Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican, who’s drawn Trump’s ire for voting against the One Big Beautiful Bill and Musk’s praise for vocally opposing it. In the Senate, it could be Pennsylvania Democrat (for now) John Fetterman or even Lisa Murkowski, the Alaska Republican who proved to be the deciding vote for Trump’s precious bill along with Vice President J.D. Vance as the tiebreaker. (Murkowski, notably, is already in a state with open primaries and does not have to worry about being paralyzed by a Trump-endorsed challenger in the way other Republican members fear.) A pair of Michiganders, Peter Meijer and Justin Amash, who both previously served in the House—Amash even left the GOP to become an independent then Libertarian while serving from 2019 to 2021—were also mentioned. (All of the politicians here didn’t reply to WIRED’s request for comment.)Meet the America Party, Elon Musk’s Harebrained Third-Party Scheme
