Not a good idea.Elon is too fickle.

Kristi Noem would make a good president.

This promises to be interesting.

Beware the “annointed candidate,” is a lesson we learned from the left.

Let the primary voters speak.

Good. A third party would pretty much guarantee a Dem win. Musk shouldn’t repeat what Perot did in ‘92.

Vance is no Trump but then again nobody is. Without Trump on the ticket, 2028 will not be a sure thing. Also, Elon’s political judgement is not on par with his intellect. He was right about the need for a new political party in America but his timing was way off. Now he appears to be moving away from the idea.

We desperately need a new party. It is our only hope for peacefully securing America’s future.

It won’t be a third party. With Trump’s endorsement, it could easily replace the republican party very quickly.

I fully expected this all along.

Elon and Peter Thiel worked together and both ran PayPal. They both made their early billions together.

Elon went one route, Tesla and all his businesses, while Peter Thiel went on to develop Palantir Technologies.

Palantir is everything Edward Snowdon warned us about, and far more.

I highly recommend everyone read the Palantir Wiki page, especially the “Controversies” section.

Palantir Technologies - Wikipedia https://share.google/ONA7TRng06FJRmUXY

Palantir is the database of the One World Govrrnment.

Peter Thiel owns JD Vance. JD went to work for Peter right out of college. Peter named and funded Vance’s business.

Peter paid for Vance’s Ohio Senate run.

Peter personally met with Trump and ask Trump to select Vance as his VP.

I’M NOT ANTI-VANCE.

Awareness is key. Everything is unfolding exactly as it is supposed to unfold. God is in control. However, the road ahead is about to get bumpy.

Read about how Palantir coordinates all our government databases after 911.

How Palantir works with our military, and others, to coordinate attacks.

Palantir runs the US Covid-19 vaccine database.

Palantir runs the US Immigration database.

Palantir runs the database for all UK health care records.

They monitor all internet activities, all phone calls, credit card charges, emails, text messages,.... The list is long.

Elon is probably one government contract away from disaster.

There will not be a successful third party because too many Americans are slaves to the two-party mentality.

They are almost hopelessly stupid. And no matter how many votes a person like Trump gets at the ballot box, there are still too many of the willfully ignorant to break away and THINK with the minds that God gave them.

Trump was an outlier. He ran as a Republican but was really more of an independent. Thats why the leaderships of both parties hate him. He's violating their turf. He can get away with it because, well, he's Donald Trump.

The Trump phenomenon is a once in a rare moon alignment of the political stars. It might not happen again for generations to come. I hope it can. But a vigorous third party of its own as Musk intends? The odds are not in its favor, if for no other reason than too many Americans choose to be captives to the duopoly. And I wish to God that it could be otherwise.

The Elon melt down was always for show so the idiot democrats that were attacking Elon over his relationship with trump would back off and move on to their next virtue signaling outrage. bet you 10 cents there is still coordination between the two.

We all knew he was just flexing. He isn’t the richest man in the world for nothing. He knows a third party would sink the country.

That’s very true. The current republican party is only surviving because of DJTrump.
