As tensions explode between President Trump and Elon Musk, talk of a third political party is gaining steam. Insiders say Musk is privately exploring options to back a new political movement that breaks from both Trump-style populism and Democratic progressivism. After their public clash over Trump’s tax bill, and with no reconciliation in sight, some allies say Musk’s next move could reshape the midterms next year. Scott Lucas, Professor of international politics at UCD says some republicans could be swayed. To discuss this fallout further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Lecturer & Director of Clinical Legal Education, Larry Donnelly.
