Former Intel directors warn Trump’s TSMC plan would cripple US chip industry

Speculation has swirled for over a week about a potential collaboration between Intel and TSMC, igniting reactions from Intel’s current and former employees. Now, four former Intel directors have escalated the debate with a blistering Fortune op-ed, condemning reports that the Trump administration is pushing TSMC to take over Intel’s foundries. They warn that such a move could endanger US interests, predicting that TSMC would retain its cutting-edge research in Taiwan, gradually phase out Intel’s workforce, and ultimately dismantle its manufacturing base—undermining America’s position in the global semiconductor race
