MUSK'S AMERICA PARTY WILL FAIL, BECAUSE IT IS ABOUT HIM AND NOT THE REPUBLIC

If anyone understands Musk cannot compromise, it is Trump.  Musk by his own words is more antigovernment regulation and spending than Trump.

Texas has two great examples of what happens when the radicalized fiscal conservatives and pro-gun lobby control matters.

Just this week we saw the consequences of Texas Republicans' antiregulation mentality and anti-spending for the social good.

Trump's cuts in the weather service are not the cause of why the Texas Republican Party this term voted against grant money to fund local warning systems.  Trump had nothing to do with the fact Kerr County has no warning system.  Trump had nothing to do with the people not heeding multiple warnings about the impending flash flooding.  In at least one summer camp the owners heeded the warning and got all of the children out in time.  The multiple warnings only went to people who agreed to receive same by phone.  Kerr County as a matter of policy chose to not invest in such a system.

The notion until DOGE cut funding to the national weather service the NWS never made a mistake in underestimating the amount of rain fall is just absurd.

The problem is Republican Party policy in Texas concerning needed spending on social services, and policies.  The state representative from Kerr voted this term to not fund grant money for a warning system for Kerr.

This is all in line with Elon Musk's idea of fiscal conservatism.   True fiscal conservatism spends the money wisely needed to protect the community.  It is opposed to reckless spending and not needed spending.

Elon Musk and Texas Republicans both support a blanket system of opposing all spending without regard for consequences.

This will not fly in the US, especially with Elon Musk's very public rightwing position on other social issues.

Elon Musk may know rockets, but he knows nothing about economics. He has no concept of how spending for the safety net multiplies throughout the national economy. 

Elon Musk's America Party will fail faster than it started. It will be Elon Musk's alter ego, such as Starbase.
