If you’re a business owner, tell me you don’t feel what’s happening . We’re on the verge of experiencing remarkable economic growth. Make America Great Again is happening. 5% GDP this year. 10% GDP in 2028 with a stock market that will double every 3.5 years going forward, well into the 2030’s. If you get it you get it. 🇺🇸

Wall Street outgrowing Main Street at the fastest pace in history 🚨🚨

The Big Four airlines (American, Delta, Southwest, United) control 75% of the U.S. market. Fewer choices = higher prices for you.

Spiking fuel prices from Trump’s war was the nail in the coffin for twice-bankrupted Spirit airline. FWIW, JetBlue merger failed because a judge, appointed by Ronald Reagan, said the deal was illegal. Republicans are desperate to shift blame from higher costs hitting families.

Given the news today that Spirit Airlines is shuttering and thousands of people are losing their jobs, I think we should honestly assess whether the Garland DoJ stopping the JetBlue merger with Spirit Airlines was the right call. Perhaps it was but any analysis must consider as part of the equation the loss to so many families ro decide.
