WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump has suggested that a deal struck by Netflix to buy Warner Bros. Discovery “could be a problem” because of the size of the combined market share.
“There’s no question about it,” Trump said Sunday, answering questions about the deal and various other topics as he walked the red carpet at the Kennedy Center Honors .
But asked again during a White House event with farmers a day later, Trump said he “didn't know anything about the deal.”
“I know the companies very well, I know what they’re doing,” Trump said, while also adding that he had to “see what percentage of market they have.”
The president also said, “None of them are particularly great friends of mine,” but added, “I want to do what’s right.”
