Investor confirms American citizens exist within Musk's party
An Indian-origin investor confirmed the presence of American citizens within Elon Musk's newly formed "America Party," amidst criticism over its leadership. The investor's statement addressed concerns that the party lacked natural-born American leadership. The controversy arose after the party's Federal Election Commission filing revealed Indian-origin Vaibhav Taneja as treasurer, sparking social media debate. The investor, identified as Sidharth, defended the party, asserting the presence of American members and criticizing "xenophobic" attacks against Indian-Americans. Sidharth, who also identifies as an American, highlighted the loyalty of Indian-Americans, contrasting it with the dual citizenship often held by Americans of European descent. He predicted negative consequences for those framing the party maliciously.
