Tesla CEO Elon Musk said Saturday that he created a new political party called the America Party after reigniting a feud with President Trump.

“By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it!,” Musk wrote in a post on X, the social-media platform he owns. “Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom.”
