Opinion: Musk has huge wealth and influence, but historically, third parties in the United States have had difficulty succeeding
Odaily News Musk has announced the establishment of the American Party and related topics once topped Baidus hot searches, but analysts believe that even for someone like Musk who has huge wealth and influence, and has demonstrated unquestionable mobilization capabilities on the Internet and whose followers are loyal, high-profile and influential, the third party barrier remains deeply rooted.
Public reports show that historically, it has been difficult for the US third party to achieve political success. American businessman Ross Perot won nearly 19% of the popular vote in the 1992 election, but failed to win a single electoral vote. Ralph Nader was labeled a spoiler in the 2000 election. Recently, the Forward Party founded by Chinese entrepreneur and former presidential candidate Andrew Yang has gained attention but has difficulty gaining traction. (Securities China)
