🛫 Flights Of Fancy 🛬

Spirit was in its second bankruptcy. Jet Blue isn’t doing that well anyway. Aside from the (former) employees of Spirit, and the people stranded by its closure (and the creditors): who gives a shit?

In a world where gas is simply getting more expensive (as is jet fuel), farmers are going bankrupt, and inflation is rising, who is supposed to give a shit about a badly run airline finally going out of business? Is this all the Secretary of Transportation has to do? Talk about this?
Yeah, that’s gonna take everybody’s mind off their problems; and who’s to blame for them.

Meanwhile, from the top:
Worse: Nobody can believe a word you say. Because we’re living in reality; and none of us are that stupid. For whom?
Trump on Oil Prices:

Everybody was wrong. They thought energy would be at $300. It’s at like 100. And I think it’s going down. There's a lot of energy out there on ships all over the world that are loaded up with it. They can't do much with it because they got, uh, kidnapped by a pretty evil place, but we're taking care of it.
As I write, WTI is at $105 bbl. It opened at $104, closed yesterday at $106. Not being at $300 (yet) is not really a flex. The rest of what he said? All I can say is: does reality have any claim on his attention any more? That answers that question. And  now we do a little detour: That would be this Nick Fuentes? Trump doesn’t understand a word that says.
