Ex-GOP strategist deeply concerned by MAGA-friendly merger: 'Worse than a banana republic'

Former Republican strategist Tim Miller slammed the emerging deal for the Trump-friendly media giant Paramount-Skydance to take control of the parent company of HBO and CNN in a panel on MS NOW Friday evening — and called it an affront to how anything should be working in a fair and competitive media market.

"Tim Miller, your thoughts on where this stands this afternoon?" asked anchor Nicolle Wallace.

"We could do about an hour on this, Nicolle. There's so many layers," said Miller.
