The Federal Government has already shown favoritism through the unequal enforcement of the Clayton Act.

He’s right.

The fact that the mega mergers were allowed and B6/NK was stopped is literally laughable. Clayton Act should have been argued on HA/AK merger - why wasn’t it? If just one market will see consumers harmed, it should be have been stopped.


Nvm. I’m gonna get wound up. It’s ridiculous though.

Maybe the feds can't help, but Trump make a personal investment in the airline as a show of ?xxx?. With the name comes clout and something good come out of it? Nothing is out of the question with him.

It would be something if Trump saved Spirit after Biden tried to ruin them.

Which airline from back then didn't? That's like those who like to say his Casino went bankrupt while neglecting to mention the fact that every casino in Atlantic city did the same.

Spirit's dead. Over. Done for and gone.
I don’t think the GOV will want to fund a loan (which will never be paid back) for a business plan that does not work. ULCC is a failure and won’t work in the US.
