Trump's ECONOMIC NIGHTMARE is HERE as He Prepares EMERGENCY BAIL OUT - Legal AF
Michael Popok reports on breaking news, that Trump's Iranian War has claimed a new casualty--the American aviation industry, as Spirit is begging for a $500 million bailout because jet fuel prices have doubled in a month, with Frontier and Jet Blue right behind them, all showing that the true cost of the Iranian war folly will go over 1 Trillion Dollars of Taxpayer dollars before it's all said and done.
But don't worry, Trump's Commerce Secretary, the embattled Howard Lutnick -- the architect of the demented Trump Tariff scheme is in charge of the airline bailouts so what could go wrong? - 04/23/2026.
