Intel Turmoil: CEO Gelsinger Battles Trump and Board

Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger faces criticism from Trump and tension with his board amid faltering chip turnaround.

Breaking Point at Intel

Trump slammed Intel’s slow chip production and said the U.S. “needs better leadership” in tech manufacturing.

Trump vs. Intel

Internal Friction

Gelsinger’s aggressive subsidy push and costly strategy has led to boardroom disagreements.

What’s at Stake?

Intel lags behind TSMC and Samsung; U.S. chip race depends on Gelsinger’s turnaround vision.

Gelsinger’s Vision

He's betting big on government subsidies and U.S. chip self-reliance—despite resistance from within.

Trump’s attacks and board doubts could derail Gelsinger’s leadership before Intel’s big turnaround lands.

Will He Survive the Heat?
