Elon Musk's America Party: Laura Loomer predicts these people may join to spite Donald Trump

Conservative activist Laura Loomer has reignited political tensions by claiming that several prominent conservatives may align with Elon Musk’s newly launched America Party, not necessarily out of shared ideology, but to undermine US President Donald Trump. Loomer’s remarks, shared publicly on social media, come in the wake of Musk’s official announcement of the America Party. Musk framed it as a bold alternative to the entrenched two-party system. The tech billionaire’s increasing political activity, combined with high-profile disagreements with Trump, is stirring speculation about a growing split on the American right.The timing of Loomer’s prediction is especially notable. It came just after President Trump signed off on the controversial “Big, Beautiful Bill,” a sweeping tax and spending package that drew criticism from fiscal conservatives and Musk alike. As ideological fault lines widen, Loomer’s comments reflect growing discontent within Republican ranks and hint at a possible political realignment ahead of 2026.

Laura Loomer predicts defections to undermine Donald Trump

Shortly after Musk’s announcement, Laura Loomer took to X (formerly Twitter) to make a striking prediction. She named Tucker Carlson, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG), and Rep. Thomas Massie as potential defectors to Musk’s America Party, a move she believes would be aimed at undercutting Donald Trump’s influence. “I predict Tucker Carlson, MTG, and Thomas Massie will join the new ‘America Party’ to spite President Trump,” Loomer wrote.

Loomer, a longtime Trump supporter known for her hardline views, has frequently called out fellow conservatives whom she believes are disloyal or politically opportunistic. Her latest comments add fuel to speculation about rising fault lines within the GOP.

A bold move from Elon Musk

Elon Musk officially launched the America Party on July 4, declaring it a response to public frustration with the current political establishment. In a widely shared post, Musk wrote, "By a factor of 2 to 1, you want a new political party and you shall have it. Today, the America Party is formed to give you back your freedom."His decision followed a public fallout with President Trump over the “Big, Beautiful Bill.” Musk had strongly opposed the legislation, criticizing its size and scope. His move to form a new party signals an effort to reshape the political conversation, particularly among conservatives dissatisfied with Trump-era policies.

Cracks within the Republican base

Tensions between Trump and various Republican figures have been escalating, especially over issues like government spending and party direction. Rep. Thomas Massie, a libertarian-leaning Republican from Kentucky, has frequently clashed with Trump, including during the pandemic when he opposed Covid relief packages. Trump once referred to him as a “pathetic loser.”Marjorie Taylor Greene, although once a close Trump ally, has recently voiced support for some of Musk’s positions. Tucker Carlson, meanwhile, has maintained a complicated relationship with Trump and may be open to political shifts that align with his populist brand. Loomer’s naming of these figures underscores growing uncertainty about where influential conservatives will place their loyalty going forward.Whether or not Carlson, Greene, or Massie will formally align with the America Party remains to be seen. But the speculation itself is already shifting political dynamics, raising new questions about Trump’s grip on the GOP and whether Musk can truly disrupt the conservative power structure.As the 2026 elections approach, the right is poised for internal battles that may define its future. One thing is clear. Elon Musk is no longer just a disruptor in tech. He is now a force reshaping the landscape of American politics.
