In response, when the interviewer asked him whether he was confident about the funds flowing into America, Trump replied: "I'll tell you why I trust them." He added: "First of all, I think they're trustworthy people. But more importantly, they have no choice, because they won't be able to pay the tariffs if they don't do it."

It will be the American public who will be paying the tariffs on TSMC fabbed semiconductors.

What kind of reasoning is that? He trust them because he trust them?

It's simply repeating the lie. Doesn't matter if he understands or doesn't. He says it. He says it again and again. Media repeats it. Facebook repeats it. Your uncle's or cousin's repeat it.

It's now everywhere.

This dumb mfker, TSMC is at capacity at all times, if they're cut-off from the US market they're gonna get to more orders from their backlog. Perhaps some Huawei 910 dies too.
