Bullshit, they want domestic chip production. They'll bail it out, just like the banks were back in 2008.
They killed petroleum-dollar recycling. They are actively killing small manufacturers in the USA. I think you missed those details.
I believe you missed the time when Trump was praising TSMC for investing in US plants. Aka. domestic manufacturing infrastructure.

Trump may be a semi-functional cantaloupe, but his Republican troupe is just smart enough to govern in the short term.
Did not miss that; it is another reason why Intel is not safe. They are willing to sell everything to anyone who is willing to pay service to their egos.
Exactly, hence why they will sell to US buyers. Because they know their goose is cooked if Trump decides to hate them. You save your skin from the current tyrant, this is Darwin 101.
