Musk said the party would offer voters greater 'freedom.' Musk Pulls Back to Keep GOP Allies Close As Musk explored the idea of starting a political party, he was hesitant to upset influential Republicans by launching a third party that might draw away GOP (Grand Old Party) voters. Musk has also been careful to maintain his relationship with Vice President JD Vance, who is viewed as a possible successor to the MAGA (Make America Great Again) movement. According to sources, Musk has kept in contact with Vance in recent weeks, and launching a party could strain their relationship. Additionally, the report, citing sources, stated that Musk is also considering financially backing U.S. Vice President JD Vance if he runs for president in 2028. Previously, Musk spent nearly $300 million backing Trump and other Republicans in the 2024 election.
