Qualcomm already makes most of it's revenue outside the West. It would be better to move away entirely.

@hg Apple should make phones here in the USA. Nvidia can, why not Apple and Samsung?? Don't tell me Nvidia products are simpler to make than iPhones.

@hg We would have been better off with AVGO. They are doing so much better and have superior leadership.

Trump is going after Apple with tariffs for offshoring too much. Trump save Qualcomm for not existing in his first presidency. Everyone st Qualcomm only has a job bc of Trump. Will Trump force Qualcomm to keep American jobs and save Qualcomm employees in the United States once again!
