El presidente Donald Trump calificó de "ridículos" los planes de Elon Musk de formar un nuevo partido político, lanzando nuevas pullas al multimillonario tecnológico.

Washington

U.S. President Donald Trump has publicly criticized Elon Musk's announcement to launch a new political party, the 'America Party,' calling the move 'ridiculous' and reaffirming support for the traditional two-party system. This development marks an escalation in tensions between Trump and Musk, which began after Musk opposed a key tax and spending bill championed by Trump.

Azoria's CEO has called for Tesla's board to seek clarification from Musk regarding his political intentions.

Trump critica el nuevo 'America Party' de Musk mientras crece su enemistad

El presidente de Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, tuvo este domingo una mordaz respuesta a la medida del multimillonario Elon Musk de fundar un nuevo partido político en Estados Unidos. Creo que es ridículo empezar un tercer partido. Tenemos un tremendo éxito con el Partido Republicano. Los demócratas han perdido el rumbo, pero siempre ha sido un sistema bipartidista. Así que puede divertirse con ello, pero creo que es ridículo. Es la última de las crecientes desavenencias entre el hombre más poderoso del mundo y el más rico. que comenzó el mes pasado. Cuando Musk comenzó a atacar el tema en la parte superior de la agenda legislativa de Trump, un barrido recorte de impuestos y ley de gastos, que se convirtió en ley el Día de la Independencia. Musk gastó millones de dólares suscribiendo el esfuerzo de reelección de Trump en 2024, y había encabezado la agencia Doge, pero dio un paso atrás en mayo. Por aquel entonces, dijo que el proyecto de Trump llevaría al país a la bancarrota, y lo calificó de repugnante Los críticos dicen que el proyecto de ley se sumará significativamente a la carga de la deuda de EE.UU. y dañar la economía de EE.UU.. A medida que su disputa se intensificaba, el presidente amenazó con poner en común miles de millones de dólares que Tesla y SpaceX reciben en contratos y subvenciones del gobierno. Hubo señales a mediados de junio Musk estaba tratando de reparar su relación con Trump. Musk publicó en X que había ido demasiado lejos. Pero la semana pasada, Musk comenzó a criticar el proyecto de ley de Trump de nuevo, y se comprometió a que en el próximo año desbancaría a los legisladores que la apoyaran. Luego, el sábado, dijo que fundaría el Partido América. Un día más tarde, Trump publicó que estaba triste de ver Musk ir completamente fuera de los carriles y ser un choque de trenes las últimas cinco semanas. Mientras tanto, la firma de inversión Azoria Partners dijo el sábado que pospondrá la cotización de Tesla ETF, cuyo lanzamiento estaba previsto para esta semana. La creación de un partido político por parte de Musk planteaba un conflicto con su trabajo a tiempo completo. responsabilidades como CEO de Tesla. El consejero delegado de Azoria, James Fishback, también reiteró su apoyo a Trump en las redes sociales, y animó a la junta de Tesla a reunirse de inmediato para pedir a Elon que, cito, aclare su política ambiciones.
