The current administration has taken govt stakes in over 40 companies. I don’t have a link handy but I believe this is unprecedented for the US.

I took it to mean that somebody in government is pushing to invest public money in this private company.

What do you mean? The Trump administration is the most socialist since the the 30s, seriously.The government now owns dozens of large companies and is giving individual citizens shares (with those "Trump accounts" for kids etc.)
