HAM75- Trump’s Intel Stake: National Security Move or Slippery Slope? - Hard Asset Money Show

In a landmark development, the Trump administration has secured a nearly 10% stake in Intel—one of America’s most critical semiconductor companies—sparking a heated debate over whether this represents smart national security strategy or creeping government overreach. Economist Christian Briggs joins The Real Story to break down why the deal could solidify U.S. dominance in the global chip race, protect against China’s push to control supply chains, and preserve domestic production capacity. But he also warns of the risks: Intel’s Foundry business isn’t profitable yet, and excessive state involvement could set a dangerous precedent resembling socialism or even communism. A high-stakes conversation about America’s technological future and the balance between safeguarding security and preserving free markets.
