What a rube.

Probably thinks TSMC spent $0 during Biden's term.

that's what he posted

[ChumpDumper]

Here's how it actually breaks down:

In May 2020, TSMC, the Taiwan-based leader in semiconductor production, announced that it would build a $12 billion semiconductor fabrication facility, or a fab, in Phoenix, Arizona for the production of 5-nanometer chips. Two years later, TSMC revealed plans to construct a second fab to manufacture 3-nanometer chips, more than tripling its investment in Arizona from $12 to $40 billion and upgrading chips at its first facility to 4-nanometer processes.

Since the investment announcements, however, both facilities have experienced significant workforce challenges that caused TSMC to postpone production timelines in Arizona by up to two years.

The project was re-energized in April 2024, when the Taiwanese semiconductor giant signed a non-binding preliminary memorandum of terms (PMT) with the US Department of Commerce that secured $6.6 billion in grants and up to $5.5 billion in loans under the CHIPS and Science Act for the construction of a third TSMC fab in Arizona. The CHIPS Act, enacted by the Biden administration in 2022, aims to rebuild US domestic semiconductor manufacturing capacity in response to supply chain vulnerabilities exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The new investment pushed the total capital expenditure in TSMC Arizona from $40 billion to over $65 billion, making it the largest foreign direct investment (FDI) in Arizona state history and the largest FDI in a greenfield project in US history. The recent progress has put TSMC Arizona on track to produce 20% of America’s advanced logic chips by 2030, placing Arizona at the forefront of the Biden administration’s push to rebuild semiconductor manufacturing capacity in the US.

I didn't read where they were going to not invest anymore unless there were yuge tariffs.

Maybe one of you Trump s has a neato Libs of Tik Tok short or a TexAgs dank meme.

why do you think they're in Arizona in the first place?

Was it QAnon?

Is this what tariffs are for?

He'll never answer. None of them will.

Biden was warned by economists from both sides that the ARP would cause massive inflation but he ignored them. The economy was recovering great and was at over 6% GDP when he signed the ARP. Look at every other country coming out of the pandemic how inflation was tracking generally the same as ours and then look at how only ours exploded and it was 100% because of the ARP. To add to this he signed the IRA and made it even worse. ST buzzwords and catch phrases are going to save you here. You’re an absolute re when it comes to discussing finances and markets.

I don’t even know why inflation cooled? You don’t even know what inflation is

The “real inflation”…what’s that? 10%? Because you didn’t say when it was at 9% so you should probably just shut the up considering inflation dropped for the first time since 2020 and trade deals haven’t even been announced yet.

Many economists on both sides today are warning of massive inflation coming. Why are you ignoring them today? Why is Trump ignoring them and going

with his gut

?

Still waiting for your definition of inflation that we'll never get.

I happened to see his post quoted and laughed at his ridiculous claim TSMC is all because of Biden and the CHIPS act. TSMC wasn’t in Arizona because of Biden or the CHIPS act…they came to Arizona in 2020 during Trump’s first term.

Just stop posting bro you’re embarrassing yourself constantly. I’m starting to feel bad that you’ve turned into my personal punching bag

When it's bad it's Biden. Good it's Trump. Trump said so, so it must be true.

Oh no way! You missed the point again! Didn't see that coming!

I haven’t seen a single economist warn of massive inflation and most admit it’s unknown until they see how trade deals work out. I believe SF FED estimated with no deals made and tariffs where they are now an increase of .2% low end to 1.8% highest end…again, with no desks being made. You didn’t say when we peaked at 9% under Biden so hearing you whine now is hilarious.

I use the same definition for inflation that every other person who knows what the word means uses for inflation.

[TSA]

Uh no…Chump claimed TSMC was here all because of Biden and the CHIPS act. Do yourself a favor and go back a page and stop embarrassing yourself punching bag.

shocker

What's shocking about that? "massive inflation"...like the 9% under Biden (that you didn't say a peep about ) You won't find a single economist from either side predicting inflation rising to 9%.

Many economists on both sides today are warning of massive inflation coming

Post the many economists from both sides you are talking about and the massive inflation rates they are predicting. Don't be a chicken. It's going to be fun watching you either dodge this and not post the "many economists from both sides warning of massive inflation coming" because of some bull excuse like you always do, or you do post them and every single one of them predicts something far lower than the 9% we reached under Biden that you kept silent about. Lose/lose for you, and you did it to yourself

chicken

Chicken for not posting the definition of inflation? I didn't think that was necessary as everyone, except you, understands that inflation has to do with prices continuing to rise over time, not a one time bump up in prices. "tariff induced inflation"

Looking forward to seeing your long list of economists from both sides predicting massive inflation that comes close to Biden levels of inflation or seeing you chicken out with a bull excuse like you always do.

[ChumpDumper]

What if I post a single economist since you can't find a single one?

You called me out for not knowing what inflation is. You'll never post your definition of inflation, chicken.

Lol "one time bump"

What does that even mean?

"If the large increases in tariffs that have been announced are sustained, they are likely to generate a rise in inflation, a slowdown in economic growth, and an increase in unemployment."

You clearly don't know what inflation is. When tariffs hit they will cause pricing to go up once...tariffs wouldn't cause pricing to continuously rise. The only way pricing would continue to rise would be if new and higher tariffs continued to be put in place over time and Trump's tariffs are working the opposite and are set at the top with deals being made bringing them down.

Come on chicken...post all these economists you found from both sides predicting massive inflation. Chop chop pussy.

[ChumpDumper]

The tariffs are temporary?

What are they for?

Why are you so disingenuous about why inflation was high under Biden in 2022?

Trump's inflation will be due to him just pulling this tariff stuff out of his insane ass. Just like Greenland, gulf of America and Canada being added as a state.

"The tariff shock will reduce real GDP growth and raise prices at the same time, putting the Fed on the horns of a dilemma,” Brian Coulton, chief economist at Fitch Ratings, warned in a note Wednesday afternoon. “The policy move necessary to maintain full employment is the opposite of that necessary to contain inflation. Moving one policy lever to hit two conflicting targets is problematic.”

Are these guys experts?

"Fed Chair Jerome Powell said the Trump administration’s tariff increases were “significantly larger than anticipated,” but their full extent on the economy is “highly uncertain” given that these trade policies are still evolving.

“If the large increases in tariffs that have been announced are sustained, they are likely to generate a rise in inflation, a slowdown in economic growth, and an increase in unemployment,” Powell said.
