Does fine against Trump but the problem is getting there. So, I think there's a good chance that this Bloomberg boomlet also fails.

Remember when Elon Musk threatened to start his own political party during his spat with Donald Trump? It’s unclear how many Americans would switch their political affiliation to a Musk-run party specifically, but a plurality agree that they’d like another major political party to rival the Democrats and Republicans.
