The American Billionaires Party?

If they manage to steal half the GOPs votes, we have reason to thank him.

I hope this would split the vote among magas and republicans and the dems would be a shoe in. Sadly, I've lost a lot of faith in the dems and their ability to effectively fight for the people. Maybe we need even more parties?

I hope this becomes big enough to split the right-wing vote. I wish him all the success possible.

Even opening up a poll on X to see what his users think about the idea...

Presumably the other headline that read '50% of voters' were in favour of this party, should have read '50% of X users who voted in the poll (a potentially large proportion of which were bots owned and controlled ultimately by Elon Musk) were in favour of this party'

  1. US (and in fact all 'Western') media is as bent as anything in the former Soviet Union.

  2. America certainly is in the hypernormalisation phase. I'm not sure how far behind the UK (and other Western nations media) is because I really don't engage in the media here. But any Murdoch owned media (like Fox in the US) is at the very least poisonous to open and fair democracy, and egalitarian society.

What kind of shitty click bait is this?

The richest man in the world officially announced on Saturday that he has officially formed a new political party to challenge Republicans and Democrats alike.

He fucking tweeted that it was created, literally nothing official.

And when the president tweets it's for some reason official and should be followed... We live in a really stupid age where the government and politics in the US is governed by social media.

Cool so a third liberal party

[-] Gammelfisch@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

The neo-Nazi saluting bastard wants a political party? F-him and strip him of US citizenship for illegally working in the USA.

If anyone has a chance to create another party. AOC and Mamdani.

Their logo needs to be a muskrat. Doesn't matter what they name it.

[-] MITM0@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

What's it called again ? Please let it be an AnCap one, it would make sense for him to do just that

[-] SnarkoPolo@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Has he filed any paperwork? Gathered any signatures?

Didn't think so. It's just typical Elmo Skum: hurricane force hot air scented with billionaire quantities of bovine effluvia.

[-] SayJess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 weeks ago

Split the ring wing vote. Let them fight it out. Hopefully this could mean getting them out of the White House.

[-] CharlesDarwin@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Cool. Let the douches be split between who is more "maga" (baby talk) than the other and split all the worst people into an ineffective nothingburger when it comes to the ballot box.

I'm so tired of the various factions of the left pitting themselves against each other (and letting elitists/Russian and Chinese troll farms do this to them, too).

About time to have some extreme division on the wingnuts.

[-] aesthelete@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

The oligarchs just didn't have enough choice with the two they already own.

[-] Ferroto@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Wow this might just turn Elon Musk into a millionaire.

[-] huppakee@feddit.nl 2 points 2 weeks ago

I'm really happy about this, always thought 1 flavour of fascism wasn't enough for me /s

So, another copy of the Libertarian Party?

But even more barefacedly just "republicans who don't want to pay their taxes"

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
