Elon Musk’s plan to start a new “America Party” is facing fierce backlash from conservative leaders. On NEWSMAX’s “American Agenda,” analysts Hogan Gidley, Barak Lurie, and Rob Astorino slammed Musk for threatening to split the conservative vote. They warn this move could hand power to Democrats by dividing patriots when unity matters most.
Musk announced he’d launch the party if President Trump’s spending bill passed, calling it “insane.” He claims America needs an alternative to the “uniparty” system. But experts say building a new party faces huge legal hurdles and state-by-state ballot access battles. Only someone with Musk’s extreme wealth could even attempt it.
Conservative voices are sounding the alarm. Splitting the Republican vote risks undoing our hard-won gains against the radical left. Third parties have failed throughout history because they weaken the unified front needed to defend our values. Musk’s idea threatens to sabotage the very movement that protects American freedoms.
The NEWSMAX panel didn’t hold back. Hogan Gidley stressed that Musk lacks Trump’s proven record of fighting for everyday Americans. Rob Astorino warned that vanity projects have no place in serious politics. Barak Lurie echoed that real change comes through existing conservative channels, not flashy distractions.
America’s patriots must see this for what it is: a billionaire’s ego trip. At a time when leftists push open borders and crippling taxes, conservatives can’t afford division. Musk’s companies already face criticism for bending to foreign interests. Why trust him with our nation’s future?
Unity won the last election, and unity will protect our country now. The Republican Party remains the only force strong enough to stop the Democrat agenda. True patriots reject sideshows and stand with proven fighters like President Trump. Musk’s party would only scatter our strength when we need it most.
Conservatives must ignore shiny objects and stay focused. Our movement is built on real workers and families, not tech moguls chasing headlines. Let’s channel our energy into defending the values that made America great, not fracturing over vanity projects. The stakes are too high for experiments.
Stand firm with the party that delivers victories. Reject distractions and keep fighting for our country together. The left wants nothing more than to see conservatives divided. Don’t give them that satisfaction. Stay united, stay strong, and keep winning for America.
