The executives have already made bold claims about the benefits of their merger, promising the new company will lower prices and create thousands of new jobs, starting "on day one." Most importantly, they say the merger will allow the "New T-Mobile" to accelerate the deployment of super fast 5G wireless technology, which Legere claims will finally bring broadband to millions of rural Americans.

It's a tall order to fill. And the claims, which many critics say fly in the face of basic economics, are sure to get a lot of scrutiny. But according to Legere's written testimony posted on Tuesday, he seems to have answers for each of his critics.
