Elon Musk recently sparked interest by asking his followers on social media if it is indeed time to create a new political party in the United States that would represent the majority of the population. Following a public disagreement with former President Donald Trump, Musk conducted a poll on X (formerly Twitter) which showed that approximately 80.4% of the over 5.6 million respondents supported the idea of a new party. Musk concluded that the majority’s consensus suggested “fate” and proposed the name “The America Party.”

As an inevitable result of this development,betting markets have emerged to speculate on the likelihood of Musk actually starting this new political party. Currently, there is a 13% chance projected for its establishment by June 30, 2025, increasing to a 30% likelihood by the end of the year.While some individuals express skepticism about the viability of a third party, others believe Musk has the potential to attract significant support.Responses to his proposal vary widely, with some viewing it as a risky endeavor that may ultimately hinder broader political progress.

Elon Musk asked the public on Thursday if a new political party should be started, a proposition that has caught the attention of the betting markets.

After his public feud with President Donald Trump over the Big Beautiful Bill and the need to balance the budget, Musk posted a poll on X that may be indicating his new direction.

“Is it time to create a new political party in America that actually represents the 80% in the middle?” Musk asked.

Roughly 80.4 percent of respondents answered “Yes,” and 19.6 percent answered “No,” with the poll receiving a volume of more than 5.6 million votes.

“A new political party is needed in America to represent the 80% in the middle! And exactly 80% of people agree,” he said. “This is fate.”

The billionaire later floated the name “The America Party.”

Although a sizable minority of the betting market may be convinced, there are plenty of both skeptics and supporters of his possible plan.

“That’s one way to throw away your money because there’s no way that’s happening,” one X user said.

“If there’s one person who could potentially create a 3rd party & attract a majority of people to it, it’s Elon,” another offered.

“Odds are zero when he and Trump makeup,” a third predicted.

“The problem is, a new party never gets enough folks to make a difference. They just take away from republicans or Dems and help one party or the other,” another warned.
