In case you're wondering,
Time Warner Cable split from
Time Warner and became an independent company in 2009.
Earlier this year they were acquired by
Charter Communications and are in the process of being re-branded as
Spectrum.

GOOD!
IMHO, ATT is a ripoff outfit... quoting one rate and charging much higher
they need to be busted up to restore some more competition to the marketplace
they certainly do NOT need to be allowed to get any more huge than they already are, given their business practices

So how does AT&T figure in? Doesn’t seem like Time Warner Cable would be on the block.

He also mentioned they'd revisit the Comcast-NBCUniversal merger. Time to dust off the Sherman Anti-Trust Act?
He won't talk about it before the election, but I'd be surprised if breaking up the "too big to fail" banks and restoring Glass-Steagall isn't also on the list of things to look at.

Not sure what he’s saying....but I trust him.
I have a friend who works at the top levels of the CRTC, the Canadian version of the FCC.
I will have to ask about the implications of this. However I Know Donald knows what he’s doing.

Gotta ask yourself what AT&T would want with Time Warner. They already own Directv and I believe they would own CNN if this deal is approved. Their stock took a whopper of a hit. Stupid move AT&T.

Liberals are OK with big corporations gobbling up the little guys. Once they decide to nationalize and socialize everything, it makes it so much cleaner to take over.

The Corporatist System is about big government and big business working together, both need to be dealt with.

I’m unaware of Presidents having that power.
If they do, they damn well shouldn’t.
