The tariffs would ensnare cutting-edge smartphone and PC-related chips for Apple, AMD and Nvidia if enacted. But Trump is betting his plan will bring more chip production to the US.
He might be right.
“trump was godsent, but not for the reasons you believe. think more of an exodus’ plague”
Crying and banging my head on the floor because accelerationists might be right
Ah yes put tariffs on the goods that our allies make, a tried and true solution to the problem of groceries
Long term, more high tech manufacturing will be the result of more technology availability for cheaper, not higher cost chips from overseas
It’s my understanding that Taiwan doesn’t manufacture the chip producing machines anyways, those come from ASML
This will surely sort out the egg price
The world’s largest semiconductor foundry, and one of the primary reasons the U.S. maintains a hold on Taiwan. There are rumours that the US has a plan to blow it up in case of Chinese invasion, that’s how valuable it is. So this quite a reversal of strategy.
He said he was gonna apply tarrifs to China. This is consistent with the One China policy.
Yellow Perilism isn’t just about PRC. Japan suffered from it first hand in the 1980s and 1990s. Anti-Asian racism runs deep in the US and the West.
Wait I somehow never thought about this, does the one china policy really dictates that they have to apply tariffs across the strait? I assume it’s in jest since I’m pretty sure they regular import/export on a smaller scale yet (like ban on Xinjiang imports), but I’m curious
It Hurt Itself in Its Confusion!
Tariffs only exist to protect the profits of the ruling class.
Do not be fooled. Tariffs are not good for us.
Japan used tariffs to increase domestic industries and leap frog into the 20th century. It enabled them to take part in WW II and beyond. That’s why you’ll see giant corporations that control multiple different industries.
It did work for Japan. The US is in a completely different situation though, and it’ll only hurt.
The US also used protectionism in the 19th and 20th centuries
You know it wasn’t the same. And if you don’t know that then you shouldn’t even respond like that.
You clearly know nothing
The United States pursued a protectionist policy from the beginning of the 19th century until the middle of the 20th century. Between 1861 and 1933, they had one of the highest average tariff rates on manufactured imports in the world. After 1942, the U.S. began to promote worldwide free trade. After the 2016 presidential election, the US increased trade protectionism.[2]

Has nothing to do with the current situation.
But “america bad” so you do you.
Has everything to do with the current situation.
“usa bad”
what else would you call enabling a genocide?
There it is. ML user is a single issue voter, if they’re even American to begin with .
You can’t even distinguish between a century wide gap in economics and today.
I see he adopted “death to America”
Is he intentionally trying to sink us? If so, I guess I don’t hate him as much as I thought?
And people said nothing good will come out of Trump :D Weakening the US’ position internationally and its allies is a good thing in my opinon.
Neo Hitler is getting strike 1 out of 3 out of the way
Does he plan to start making chips??? Genuinely why would he do this.
