Even at this early date it is clear Trump will ignore the promises he made in the campaign and focus on turning the White House in to a profit machine for him and his family.
I think Trump would view the T-TWC deal as just business as usual for the billionaire's club, which means he would be OK with it unless it somehow impacts the Trump financial empire.

The great myth of the corporate world is that the so-called leaders are smarter and work harder.
Yes actually it does. At his level he's about legacy. Sitting him down now - even with his 100 million dollars - is the right thing to do.

Ole Randy loves to play these high stake games with little logic or smart execution behind it. I'm reminded of that stupid T-Mobile sweet heart deal that paid T-Mobile 8 billion dollars If the deal failed.
If this deal fails he should be sat down by the board and given his own surplus. Enough is enough. Sick culture, no innovation, shiny object blank check book behavior. It's time for him to go.
AT&T Inc. Chief Executive Randall Stephenson made an $85 billion wager last month that would turn the giant telephone company into one of the world’s biggest media companies by swallowing Time Warner Inc.
The same day, Donald Trump told supporters in Gettysburg, Pa., he would block the deal if elected president. “It’s too much concentration of power in the hands of too few,” he said, calling the merger “an example of the power structure I am fighting.”
