Opinionated summary:

  • Despite Republican assurances, Trump called the CHIPS Act “horrible” and pushed for its scrapping, creating chaos for an industry already struggling with uncertainty.
  • The Trump administration has already sabotaged the program by laying off key staff and considering changes to the projects, showing its disdain for U.S. industrial growth.
  • Industry leaders, who have already committed billions to U.S. chip production, are now left in limbo, thanks to Trump’s shortsighted, destructive rhetoric.

    What a massive fucking idiot this man and the Republicans are.

    All the talk about America first manufacturing in the US and he pulls this bullshit because his fragile fee fees are hurt because Biden, Democrats, and progressives did that.

        And I’m sure those Republicans who voted for it then will bash it now saying their hands were forced.
