Further complicating matters is the incoming Trump administration, which could influence the case’s trajectory. While Trump’s first administration initiated the antitrust case against Google, he has since expressed concerns about breaking up American tech giants, citing competition with China. “Trump’s stance on the case remains unclear, but his pro-business approach could impact the DOJ’s push for remedies,” said legal analyst Gus Hurwitz.
