Intel marks a major turn for US policy, entering into the era of Mussolini-style state corporatism. The formerly aggressive market economy advocates in the GOP have suddenly gone quiet.

Wait…how can they get 10% without paying anything unless the shares are worthless? How can that remotely work for a publicly traded company without a vote by shareholders??

Thank you for explanation. This makes far more sense, though still seems an odd turn. I do wonder if Trump actually believes his own statement- like this is what he was told is happening or he can’t understand what is happening- or he is again making things up to sound strong

If he is delusional he is not fit for office. I believe it is improbable there is an orchestrated conspiracy to misinform him. Based on past and present behaviour there is a 99.9% probability that he is deliberately and knowingly lying.

I mean, he’s already not fit for office, but your probability assessment is still most likely correct.

Can the CEO "donate" 10% of the company to any entity?

And no it wasn’t free. $8.9 billion paid for the 9.9% placement.
