Ellison argued Paramount's deal will have a shorter regulatory approval process given the company's smaller size and friendly relationship with the Trump administration. He called Trump a believer "in competition" and said Paramount's combination with WBD will be "a real competitor to Netflix, a real competitor to Amazon." Ellison also threw cold water on Netflix's chances of regulatory approval.

“Ever since Donald Trump rode down that ridiculous escalator, we as a nation have felt trapped. Every national decision has been made in reaction to this one man and his extremist MAGA movement,” Alsobrooks told a raucous DNC crowd. I snapped to attention; these words resonated with me in a way other political speeches have not. “We are still frozen by the fear that Donald Trump might once again come to power. And it’s not just our politics that’s been trapped. It’s our imagination.”
