Obama's FCC wouldn't do it, not enough payola for him would be my guess, they all golfed with him on numerous occasions.
Time Warner just spun off their Internet Division to Spectrum in anticipation of another FCC meeting, this time it will pass. The Verizon lawyer Trump appointed will OK it, my thinking anyway ymmv
I'll be very surprised if the deal ever goes through. An insider I know said no way. But, we'll see.
Anything is possible in the chaotic environment and political climate we now live in. Anything good and anything bad, that is. We need revisit those anti-trust days, giving consumers more choices.... not less. And from what I have read, Trump is supposedly for giving Americans more choices. But then.... the
Trump Empire he has built kind of negates that theory in that he likes to put his logo on everything he can. Dunno.
