'A way to show fealty.' Trump tightens grip on big business with Nvidia, AMD deal - The 11th Hour - MSNBC



Donald Trump won over corporate America with the promise of deregulation. But in his second term, Trump is doing more, not less, to control big business – extracting a so-called "Golden Share" in U.S. Steel, negotiating billions in foreign investments, pressuring the head of Intel to resign, and now getting two of the world's biggest chipmakers to fork over 15% of their A.I. chip sales in China to the federal government. Brendan Greeley and Bharat Ramamurti join The Eleventh Hour to discuss his tightening grip on big business. - Aired on 08/11/2025.

Corporations will be controlled by Krasnov. Want to select a new CEO, the person must be approved by Krasnov.

Dylan Ratigan was fired from MSNBC because he was exposing crony capitalism. What's happening now under Krasnov is much worse.
