Trump just said the U.S. govt will "probably" be helping hotels, plus airlines

Wow: Trump just said "I do" when asked if he supports the U.S. government taking EQUITY STAKES in U.S. companies. He declines to say which ones. Then he says the U.S. govt will "probably" be helping hotels, plus airlines. "We'll be focused on many industries," the president says.

This dipshit is in deep over his head. Please Congress, install someone with minimal competency. This loser has got to go.

It could have been a huge payday for Trump. He still has his golf courses, though. Any chance he can divert bailout cash to those?

-which is not so popular these days. But he'll figure out a way to get some money out of the situation, probably by including golf resorts like Doral.
