You are being downvoted, but people surely realize this is 100% true, right? Not only is it 100% true, it is inevitably going to be the outcome. Google will not have to divest Chrome.
Sundar just has to pay the $5M to have dinner at Mara Lago and the next day Trump will be talking about how unfairly Google has been treated, probably blaming China or Canada or something for this DOJ action, and the DOJ will drop the remedy. Probably will fire some employees for daring to pursue this while they're at it.
Whichever oligarch or ruling class ultra-rich whispers in Trump's ear last gets the full force of government for their cause.
Like, surely everyone knows this is absolutely how your banana-republic, profoundly corrupt government works now, right? At least be honest about it.
