Elon Musk: Donald Trump’s “One Big, Beautiful Bill” has once again drawn harsh criticism from billionaire Elon Musk, who was formerly a close adviser and colleague of the US president. Musk has called Trump’s much-debated measure crazy and a burden on regular taxpayers. In addition, he has threatened to start a new political party called the “America Party” the following day if the Senate passes this law.
The package, which is the centerpiece of Trump’s second term, calls for more funding for border security, energy, and the military while simultaneously slashing funding for health and nutrition programs. According to the Congressional Budget Office, the plan would raise the national debt by almost $3.3 trillion over the next 10 years.
“This bill raises the debt limit by a record five trillion dollars,” Musk tweeted on X (previously Twitter). Clearly, the ‘Porky Pig Party’ is the only political party in our nation today! A new party that really cares about people is needed.
“If you were elected in the name of reducing government spending and then vote for a bill that increases the debt limit by the largest amount, you should be ashamed,” he said, launching a vicious assault on Republican leaders, particularly House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Harris.
“I will start the ‘America Party’ the very next day if this crazy bill is passed,” Elon Musk said plainly. In order to elevate the voice of the average citizen, we must have an alternative to this two-party system of Democrats and Republicans.
Once a close counselor to Trump, Elon Musk was appointed head of the ‘Department of Government Efficiency’ as well, but soon the two began to diverge. Musk said that Trump would not have won the election if he hadn’t had his backing.
“Without me, Trump would have lost the election, Democrats would control the House, and Republicans would be 51-49 in the Senate,” Musk said in a June 5 post. At a rally, Trump retaliated by calling Musk “rude” before referring to him as a “smart and wonderful guy” instead.
