Spirit Airlines blame game is going strong

Spirit Airlines has ceased operations, resulting in around 17,000 job losses and thousands of stranded passengers. The Trump administration and Spirit Airlines are blaming each other for the failure, with the administration pointing to the Justice Department's block of JetBlue's $3.8 billion purchase and Spirit citing an Iran war that spiked jet fuel prices. The exact cause of the airline's insolvency is unclear, with multiple contributing factors at play.
