A lot of speculation and disinformation on why Spirit Airlines went out of business placed the blame on the Biden administration and former Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg and Massachusetts US Senator Elizabeth Warren.
Here's one example, but there were many posted in the MAGA universe:
"David, You mentioned US investment in Spirit airlines which turns out to be incorrect. The esteemed business persons Peter Buttigieg was active in denying the merger of Jet Blue and Spirit as was the brilliant Elizabeth Warren. Both said approving the merger would result in less competition. Looks like they were wrong because now there are thousands unemployed and thousands stuck in places where they don't want to be.
This is only one of the problems we face when we let incompetent bureaucrats led by an incompetent leader make decisions. Give them their bribes and perks as long as they don't try to do anything. We would all be better off. We should even fund day cares that don't exist just to keep the idiots away from decisions that affect us all."
In bankruptcy court, Spirit Airlines' own lawyers blamed Trump's Iran War, and never mentioned the Biden administration nor Buttigieg or Warren. Trump's mouthpieces were the first to blame the Biden administration because they never take responsibility for their actions.
It was Trump's disastrous Iran War that forced Spirit Airlines into bankruptcy.
The Filing: Court documents cite that the conflict in Iran caused high fuel prices that crushed the company’s margins and left no viable path to restructuring.
