  • To be fair TSMC built, then expanded their fab plans due to the Chips Act passed under Biden. Trump called to repeal said act but realizing its bi-partisan support decided instead to “reshape” it via executive order so he can dip his corrupt fingers into it and sell access.

Biden and co understood, targeted tariffs and supply line security needs to be accompanied with domestic subsidy, unlike Trumps ignorant across the board tariff shit, which just serves as another sales tax on US citizens. That being said, it is crazy unrealistic to have a majority US made switch without crazy investment in US manufacturing.
