Its nearly a guarantee TSMC was going to be exempt. The dismal performance of their AZ location and Samsung's TX location shows how the US wouldn't even be anywhere near 20% domestic manufacture by 2035. Capital≠Competency. The 70k staffing shortage, difference in culture is the real issue here. This tariff would have turned into a kamikaze maneuver had it not been for the carveouts.
I was stunned when it was announced. I mean having contradicting tariffs and goals is one thing, but semis?! Wonder if this will finally get Intel their first Intl. buyer for their semis.
