As far as the merger is concerned, Trump is very sensitive on the subject of jobs. As you well know, mergers result in loss of jobs. Will the investment fund that Softbank is putting together and the 10,000 jobs it promised be enough to counteract the loss of jobs? Don't know. I thought the time to merge was before both of them spent an ungodly amount of money to deploy LTE. Sprint's Net Debt is around $31B, where as T-Mobile's is $22.4B.
