Oh and TSMC is on an island they claim is their own. Great: an Intel that has TSMC as its largest single shareholder is essentially wholly under the thumb of the State Department.

The US defence industry buys from them no matter what. Which is why the US needs to ensure their survival. The concern isn't that Intel survives or not (the US would prop them up no matter what), but that they also remain on the cutting edge and the US doesn't lose out if, say, Taiwan falls to China.
