Former Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang said he’s reached out to Elon Musk in hopes of collaborating on the creation of a new political party, according to a Saturday interview with Politico Magazine.
Yang, along with mutual friends, believes the Tesla CEO has what it takes to form a new faction that propels America’s strongest leaders.
When asked if Musk has responded to his inquiry, Yang told the outlet “Not yet, but I assume he’s been very busy.”
“We have been of the opinion that America needed a new political party for a number of years, and so waiting another 24 hours is nothing,” he added.
Musk’s push for a new political caucus emerged from his public feud with President Trump over the “big, beautiful bill.” The tech giant strongly opposed the national debt increase after months of working with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to cut federal spending.
Yang, the founder of “The Forward Party,” said it’s political outsiders like Musk who consider non-traditional approaches to the country’s problems.
