The brief détente between Elon Musk and President Donald Trump took its last breath over the weekend, as the billionaire and once top Republican donor announced he would form a new political party.

Donald Trump fell in love with Elon Musk when the richest man in the world bankrolled his reelection campaign. Then he fell out of love with Musk when the tech titan openly criticized his ‘Big Beautiful Bill.

More than a month after their initial social media bluster, Elon Musk has announced the formation of a new U.S. political party in response to U.S. President Donald Trump signing his sweeping tax and spending bill into law.
