    Amazon is just gonna drag it out until they get a favorable administration to give them a sweetheart settlement.

    Like Microsoft did.

          Did they do the same thing in the UK where they were also being held up? No. Was the trump admin particularly hostile to this or the Biden admin particularly lax on it? No. So it has nothing to do with the admin, it’s just they have hoards of lawyers that can exploit loopholes or make good defences.

            On the Microsoft antitrust case?

            The one that started during the Clinton administration and ended during the GWB administration?
