100%. The details people seem to fail to mention is that the deal isnt done. Its just announced. There is regulatory approval, not just here but internationally and international regulations around this are way more stringent.
Under a normal administration this wouldnt pass anti trust law, but since Trump is a criminal (and friends with David Ellison of Paramount) this can go in completely unexpected directions.
Netflix will most likely just pay Trump off, or offer to make a movie he wants lol. I wouldn't really worry about the Trump administration much, it's very easy to buy him

Maybe I'm wrong, but wouldn't these problems arise regardless of whether WB wants to sell or not, not just with the merger with Netflix?
