Others have pointed out that this government "stake" in a Large private company is heading us towards a communism-type arrangement. Is this something Trump will continue pressing with other companies? Because then we are definitely heading down that road.

My thoughts exactly there’s no solid plans to buy anything. It’s just the announcement to manipulate Intel stock price prices. Once it’s convenient, they’ll he’ll announce they aren’t investing after all.

Intel failed because an iPad Air from 2020 was objectively better than an Intel MacBook Air from the same year. It’s why Apple went to their own M Class processors. And AMD outclassed Intel for quite some time also.
