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.
Has he ever given any indication that he knows what the CHIPS Act is? Because I’m 99% sure he’s confusing it with CHIP Children’s Health Insurance Program which iirc is part of social security and we know he’s aiming to get rid of that.
My guess is that he just hates Erik Estrada for some unknowable reason.
Better hair obviously
To be fair, don’t a lot of people? I never got the hate, but I’ve run into plenty of people throughout my life who don’t care for him. I found his turn in the Fallout TV series to be a pleasant surprise.
Idk, I think the majority of people have no clue who he is. I’ve never even seen CHiPS before, I just know he was in it.
I think all the handlers who might explain things to him are probably gone.
I’d be shocked if they even bothered to hire any this time around lol
“Mr President, you’re the president. You don’t need other people telling you what to do, your own ideas are perfect. By the way, here’s The Hungry Hungry Liberal, A Project 2025 Picturebook for you to read while waiting for Biden to leave.”
That is the sad state of affairs at the white house right now
You know, I wouldn’t be surprised.
