My own personal tin foil hat theory..they are fueling these rumors to encourage liberal billionaires, like Burkle, Broad, to jump in and toss billions down the crapper..
“I can’t see any possible business model where they can make any $$ with this purchase, unless they can buy it for a pittance..which won’t happen.”
Yeah, but all they need to do is wait a few more months and the “deal for a dollar” might be all that good ole Sam can get for these rags.
