Elon Musk intensifies his attack on Donald Trump’s controversial tax and spending bill, calling it a “disgusting abomination” and urging the creation of a new political party. The feud signals a major fracture between the tech mogul and the former U.S. president.
A Billionaire vs. the Bill: Elon Musk Breaks Ranks with Trump
Elon Musk has launched his most blistering attack yet on Donald Trump’s controversial “Big, Beautiful Bill”, igniting a new political firestorm and calling for the creation of a new U.S. political party.
Just weeks after expressing regret over harsh words directed at the former president, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO returned to X (formerly Twitter) to slam the 940-page bill. The legislation includes sweeping tax cuts for corporations and the wealthy, while gutting programs like Medicaid and food assistance—moves that have drawn criticism from both Democrats and moderate Republicans.
From Ally to Adversary: Musk Turns Up the Heat
Once a vocal supporter and major campaign donor to Trump, Musk has now positioned himself as a rogue force within America’s political establishment. “Lawmakers who campaigned on cutting spending but back this bill should hang their heads in shame,” Musk posted on Monday, as the Senate convened to vote on amendments.
“And they will lose their primary next year if it’s the last thing I do on this Earth,” he continued, suggesting that he may now leverage his financial influence against pro-Trump incumbents.
‘The Porky Pig Party’: Musk Demands a New Political Movement
In a post that quickly went viral, Musk blasted America’s political class, accusing both parties of reckless spending and corruption.
“It’s clear we live in a one-party country—the Porky Pig Party! Time for a new political party that actually cares about the people.”
This isn’t the first time Musk has floated the idea of a political alternative, but the timing—and venom—indicates a possible strategic shift. By rejecting Trump’s economic blueprint so publicly, Musk is now aligning himself with anti-establishment populism, but on his own terms.
A Growing Rift in Conservative America
The fallout from Musk’s statements comes at a critical time for Republicans. Trump’s bill, while popular with party leadership, has drawn quiet dissent from fiscal conservatives concerned about debt and inflation.
With Musk now publicly threatening to fund primary challengers, his words carry real weight—especially among younger, libertarian-leaning voters and donors from Silicon Valley.
His criticism aligns with those who say the bill prioritizes corporate welfare and outdated industries, undermining future-focused sectors like clean energy, data, and AI—Musk’s own empire.
What’s Next for Musk—and American Politics?
It’s unclear whether Musk’s call for a new party is a publicity stunt or the beginning of a serious political venture. But as America barrels toward the 2026 election season, his voice—and wallet—may reshape the conservative landscape.
With populist energy rising and trust in political institutions plummeting, Elon Musk’s revolt against the ‘Porky Pig Party’ may find a growing audience.
