Elon Musk is starting a third party evidently, seemingly out of pique with Donald Trump. About this, a few things. Good luck with it having any traction whatsoever. When a strong conservative’s picking up the pieces and cobbling together a new coalition of conservatives and former Democrats, one John Anderson tried to run against him with a message of social liberalism and economic austerity Just Like Musk. We remember Ronald Reagan, John Anderson is a distant memory, if of any memory.
Second, to quote the polling expert at CNN last week, “Republicans love Donald Trump the way that Americans love Disney World.” In fact, no Republican president has had higher approval from within his own party to date. So where is Musk going to garner activists and voters? From the Democratic party that has been lambasting him and protesting him like few they’ve ever attacked before?
Independents? The No Labels movement has been around for fifteen years and has won exactly nothing. Same for Andrew Yang’s Forward Party. We shouldn’t be too worried about this new windmill Elon Musk is charging.
