I'd have done the same if Broadcom were an American company. I oppose it because I pretty much reflexively oppose all mergers of huge companies leading to more consolidation: the evidence is overwhelming that this is harming competition and increasing prices across a variety of business sectors. As for the national security aspect, I don't give a shit. Trump did the right thing for the wrong reason.
And this is a private equity play - buy the company. Strip it of its assets, ignore any future R&D opportunities and move on as soon as all revenues are exhausted.

How have you established that this is the most likely outcome?
