    How would that even work?

    Destroy the Google HQ, data centers, and assassinate it’s leadership?

    I mean he could maybe direct a Republican Congress to legislatively fine and tax Alphabet into the ground, but there are definitely a large number of Congress that have money in Alphabet.

    He can’t even come up with coherent rants, how could he come up with a way to fight someone as big as Alphabet.

      i just don’t understand why

      We hate google for being a giant, evil corporation that bribes republicans to vote against things like net neutrality or privacy rights

      Why would a republican go after google? theyre on the same side

      Also, he, nor anybody else who would pursue something this dumb realize how many things run on google’s cloud, middleware, SaaS products, etc. His middle schooler mind thinks “google = google.com search,” when Alphabet’s business is so much bigger than that.

        Remember when he said that Goldman Sachs has to forgive all Puerto Rico’s municipal bonds? That was fun.

      Alphabet is largely guided by the intelligence community.

      This is consistent with Trump attacking the CIA and the deep state.

      It’s been found to be a monopoly. I’m sure they’ll appeal, but we may find out what it looks like in our own lifetimes.
