According to Reuters and other sources on the 8th (local time), President Trump held a meeting at the White House on the same day.
When asked about Musk's new party at a Cabinet meeting, Trump said, "I think it would be good for us."
"It may not be the case for the Democratic Party, but it was for me," he said. This comment was made in response to the fact that in the last presidential election, third parties such as the Green Party dispersed Democratic votes, giving them an advantage over Trump.
However, if Musk were to establish a new party, it would likely be a conservative party, and would not necessarily be favorable to Trump or the Republican Party.
This is not necessarily a favorable political scenario. Immediately after Musk's remarks about starting a new party were made, Trump reacted angrily, saying, "This is nonsense. This is a total derailment."
His cabinet members also made statements scorning Musk, saying he "doesn't have enough public popularity." However, there have been a series of analyses that Musk's venture is likely to fail, and Trump is also very concerned.
Trump also gave a negative evaluation of the way the Department of Government Efficiency, which Musk had been running as head of the federal government, reorganized federal agencies.
"There were other ways to do it. If I had done it, it might have been a little different," he said of the cuts.
On the 4th of this month, Musk announced that he would be founding a new party called the "America Party." This is the first time that the "One Big Beautiful Bill" that includes Trump's policy agenda has been passed.
Musk also said that President Trump had been "very sceptical" about the Jeffrey Epstein sex scandal, and that the bill was "the worst tax cut for the wealthy in American history."
He has continued to take an aggressive stance against Trump, posting comments that suggest he supports the Democratic Party's policies.
