Elon Musk has said that he’s formed a new political party, but it’s unclear what steps — if any — he’s taken to do so, or how the effort might affect upcoming elections. Musk has not yet released any additional information. Spokespeople for Musk and his political action committee, America PAC, didn’t immediately comment Monday.

Building a viable new political party to rival the Democrats and Republicans is enormously difficult and expensive. Small wonder it hasn’t been done.

Tesla’s CEO said he created a new political party called the America Party after reigniting a feud with President Trump.
