Industry experts tell CNN that, far from stealing, Taiwan grew its own semiconductor industry organically through a combination of foresight, hard work and investment. The only possible strength that Taiwan had, and even that was a potential one, not an obvious one, was semiconductor manufacturing,” he said. Billionaire Morris Chang, chairman and founder of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, in Hsinchu, Taiwan, on October 6, 2017. It now produces more than 90% of the world’s advanced chips, according to the Semiconductor Industry Association. “Taiwan has very good tech talent and an environment for research, development and investment.

Mr. Biden consistently maintained that his experience was an advantage, enabling him to pass landmark legislation and manage foreign policy crises. He maintained that he was the Democrat best equipped to defeat Mr. Trump given that he did so in 2020.

Trump's stance could have major implications for Taiwan's dominance in semiconductor chip manufacturing should any potential conflict arise between Taiwan and China. And such a scenario would likely have a cataclysmic effect on the US economy should the global chip supply chain be disrupted. And Taiwan's microchip production is anchored by the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, or TSMC, a global powerhouse. A recent report released by the Semiconductor Industry Association revealed that America's share of global chip manufacturing is set to increase to 14% by 2032. After Trump's latest remarks about Taiwan and the potential for tighter trade curbs on China, global chip stocks fell, with notable declines for Nvidia, TSMC, and Qualcomm, among others.
