I didn’t realize steelmanning requires strawmanning the opposing view.
A 10% stake does what? Nothing. The U.S. doesn’t even get decision making capabilities.
OTOH, the CHIPS Act created an incredible amount of semiconductor manufacturing capacity from a wide variety of manufacturers including both TSMC and Intel.
So the real question is what does getting a 10% stake do, that the CHIPS act which Trump is trying to retroactively destroy, isn’t doing much better?
