If the money is put in the correct hands the government allows anything.
We all know that the Govt will not all any merger between GE and RTX. But there are a handful of potential partners that would make sense. Well, that is a couple of years down the road.

GE Aviation will announce a contract to provide Warp Drive Propulsion Engines to SpaceX.
A lot of people predicted all those things including me.
Who can predict anything when it comes to GE? Who could have predicted a pandemic would stop us in our tracks 2+ years now? Who predicted two 737 MAX plane crashes would slow down the production of the promising LEAP engine? Who predicted the supply chain would fall apart? Who predicted five years ago a new CEO would sell profitable divisions to pay down massive debts? Who predicted the CEO would split up the remaining pieces? If anything can go wrong at GE, it will. Murphy’s Law is the norm here.

I wish I had better news.
It will probably look a lot like it does now.
