Trump Thinking About US Buying Spirit Airlines

Added: 2026-05-05

[00:00:00]Is the government going to buy a stake in Spirit Airlines?

[00:00:04]So, Spirit is uh an airline that's had some trouble.

[00:00:11]We're looking at helping them. We have 18,000 people that live in this country that are great people and great employees, and we're thinking about doing it, helping them out, and meaning bailing them out or buying it. I think we just buy it.

[00:00:25]Uh we'd be getting it virtually debt-free.

[00:00:29]They have some good aircraft, good assets, and when the price of oil goes down, we'll sell it for a profit.
