Google will just team with Amazon and purchase the USA, outright.

As soon as the three lawyers the Trump Admin put into place inside DOJ are gone in January, no more case.

DOJ should be busting telecom. No one is forced to use Google

Coup in progress, but DOJ picks a fight that will last decades.

It is a theater.

Are you indicating Trump won’t be potus next year?

I believe 45 will be 46.

Google is going to lose this case, even worse than Microsoft did. Google’s anti trust crimes are far worse than anything Microsoft ever did.
And this is just the beginning. 11 states have joined the Justice Department in this case and Texas has brought its own separate anti trust action against Google.
We are going to bring Google to its knees.

Amazon itself will be facing anti trust action soon and not just in the US either.

Google is the default search on every single android and even iphones. And you can't even remove it.
Telecoms are one of the most competitive industry in America. There are cell phone companies everywhere and prices keep falling.

From early voting so far, Trump is already winning including being ahead even in Michigan. Plus there are another eleven states that simultaneously brought anti trust action against Google, all red states.
This anti trust action is going to hammer Google for years to come.

45 will be 45 just that he will have 2 terms.
Plus anti trust was also brought by 11 states against Google today, plus Texas took its own separate anti trust action against Google, with even tougher indictments.

ATT & Comcast control CNN, NBC, MSNBC — both are federally licensed telecom providers each with a monopolized subscriber base.

I don’t care for Google’s politics, nor do I rely on it for political information. Furthermore, I’m not obliged to pay for various subscriber fees. On the other hand, ATT subscribers are forced to subsidize ATT’s love affair with CNN. Comcast has its similarities.

Telecom’s involvement with the radically Left MSM is insidious and certainly destructive. Trump knows that — and that’s why he often calls MSNBC “Con-Cast”.

Maybe they will get all broken up like AT&Titty.
Lawyers and investment bankers need to earn some pocket change, ya know.
