On July 4, Elon Musk again mentioned his idea of a new political party and suggested that it could focus in 2026 on winning two or three seats in the U.S. Senate, and eight to ten in the House.

Musk comment —
One way to execute on this would be to laser-focus on just 2 or 3 Senate seats and 8 to 10 House districts.
Given the razor-thin legislative margins, that would be enough to serve as the deciding vote on contentious laws, ensuring that they serve the true will of the people.

poll re Musk A.P.
Hmmm “two or three seats in the U.S. Senate” + going after people who voted for the big bill = (most) 20 R seats up in 2026
Alabama (open with retirement)
Alaska (Good luck with that)
Arkansas (I wish, but good luck with that)
Idaho (Good luck with that)
Iowa incumbent may not run again?
Kansas incumbent may not run again?
Kentucky (not Rand’s seat; open)
Louisiana (Good luck with that)
Mississippi (Good luck with that)
Montana incumbent may not run again?
Nebraska (Good luck with that)
North Carolina (now open, Tillis isn’t running, but he voted no)
Ohio (Good luck with that)
Oklahoma incumbent may not run again?
South Carolina I wish, but unlikely
South Dakota incumbent may not run again?
Tennessee (Good luck with that)
Texas (already a tough primary, could be gettable if incumbent not renominated)
West Virginia incumbent may not run again?
Wyoming incumbent may not run again?
So some of the R held states where the incumbent might not run again make the most sense, I think, so AL, IA, KS, KY, MT, OK, SD, WV, WY would be the most likely targets.
Go Elon. Start a new party. Trump has messed up the GOP with his Bad Bullshit Bill.
He needs to get rid of the commies especially the Democrats.
How high was he at the time of the comment?
Off the charts, outside earth gravity high.
What all was he zonked out on?
