That was the only possible response
Didn’t Biden try to get Taiwan to make chips in the US but they thought Americans were too dumb to learn how to make them lmao

Ukraine: First time?
Trump: Why don't you guys move half your manufacturing to the US...that way we still get your chips even if China invades?
Taiwan: Ummm. Yeah, no.

TSMC is Taiwan's nuclear deterrent. Asking them to move half their production to the USA is an obvious no.
Ukraine has spent the past 3 years demonstrating what can happen if you give up your nuclear deterrent for a paper guarantee when you have a hungry neighbor who thinks your land is theirs.
Cool, good luck with China.
