Musk Shows His Fangs for Revenge, Can He Really Tear Open the Political Iron Curtain of the U.S. Bipartisan System? Why Did Trump's "National Rescue Act" End Up Giving Strategic Opportunities to China?

Musk, based on a vote with over 1.2 million participants, where the number of votes in favor exceeded the number of votes against by 380,000, boldly announced the establishment of the "American Party," which seems to be a move to directly tear open the political iron curtain monopolized by the two major parties in the United States. How do you view this matter? Here are three points:

First, this is Musk's revenge. Trump's "Big and Beautiful" bill cuts deep into Musk's business empire, and Trump himself is even harsher, wanting Musk to "return to his hometown in South Africa." Musk could no longer bear it and finally turned around to show his fangs. Imagine if the "American Party" really takes root in Washington, the Democratic Party's base would not be too affected, but the Republican Party would face serious problems.

Second, Musk's plan might actually succeed. Why? Because Musk doesn't need to create a large-scale party that rivals the two major parties and divides power equally. Just securing 2 or 3 Senate seats would be considered a success. Why? Consider the reality: previously, the "Big and Beautiful" bill was voted 50:50, and it barely passed the Senate thanks to Vance's last vote. In such a situation, if Musk holds a couple of Senate votes, he can play a pivotal role as a minority. At that point, both the Democratic and Republican parties will have to seek Musk's support and try to bring him to their side.

Third, the subsequent developments of this incident may become even more interesting. Why? Because during his time in government, Musk has made many enemies, and it's possible that some people will see this as an opportunity to eliminate Musk. After all, there is now a significant rift between Musk and Trump. If something happens to Musk, the first suspects will likely be Trump.

However, the mess caused by the "Big and Beautiful" bill goes far beyond what is currently visible. Trump regarded it as a "national salvation formula," but in fact, it is a poison that cuts off America's own vital arteries. Why say that? Because it directly handed over the important strategic opportunity of new energy to China. What did the "Big and Beautiful" bill do? It completely eliminated solar tax credits, directly killed wind power incentives, and also gave traditional energy giants a "methane exemption card." The result? Goldman Sachs spoke out frankly, stating that 16 billion dollars in clean investment collectively left the United States, and companies like Vestas cut over 40,000 employees domestically.

America is personally extinguishing its industrial flame, while China is experiencing wave after wave of order "tsunamis." Longi Green Energy signed a 4.73 billion dollar photovoltaic order in a week, and Contemporary Amperex Technology Co. (CATL) directly increased its market share in Europe to 38%. BYD swallowed 2,000 electric buses in Brazil, worth nearly 1 billion dollars. Even the U.S. official admitted that once the bill was implemented, China's photovoltaic share in the U.S. would surge from 25% to 63%, and battery share would jump from 18% to 51%. Trump's "Big and Beautiful" bill's political hammer not only shattered Biden's political legacy, but also America's own green future!

Now, American legislators are panicking and trying to hit the brakes, but it's already too late. At the time of the Senate vote, it barely passed 51:50 thanks to Vance's single vote! Its "rob the poor to help the rich" behavior was also very embarrassing, and it will cause even greater fiscal holes in the future. Where did the money go? It gave top billionaires a tax cut of 1.9 trillion dollars, while at the same time cutting off food stamps for 32 million poor people and removing health insurance for 19 million people. America is already in critical condition.

The historical watershed has never been clearer. America is destroying its own Great Wall through political revenge and going backward on energy. What about China? The cost of photovoltaic electricity has already dropped to 1.5 cents per kilowatt-hour, and China possesses 80% of the global battery production capacity, reshaping the new energy order. Fortresses never collapse from the outside, but from within. The trend of the East rising and the West declining has already been decided in this clear contrast of self-destruction and self-strengthening!
