You understand that the gamestop stock would then be owning ebay, thus be worth Ebay + Gamestops Valuation?

Alright, my company MEME offers to buy Apple then for $1 plus 100% of MEME's stock, which is worth more than Apple then since it will own Apple.

If you word it like this it's just a hostile proposed change of leadership. Weird way to apply to become CEO of eBay, but sure.

They would also be owning a company that now would have +20B in debt.

They now own ebay. They would include in that math 20B in debt plus Gamestop.

This sounds like a pretty bad deal for ebay investors.
