Trump's Spirit Airlines Takeover: Conservative Socialism Takes Flight

President Trump is aggressively pushing a $500 million taxpayer-funded bailout for struggling Spirit Airlines — a deal that could hand the U.S. government up to a 90% ownership stake in the carrier. Robert Bork Jr., President of the Antitrust Education Project and co-author of "The New Paradox: Antitrust and the Threat of Conservative Socialism," warns that this marks a dangerous new chapter: the quiet creep of state-run capitalism into America — even under Republican leadership. "Trump has a clear history of taking big government stakes in companies like Intel, rare earth firms, U.S. Steel, Nvidia, and AMD," Bork suggests that if Trump's tariff policies are included, what we're really seeing is socialism dressed up as conservatism.
