President Donald Trump on Friday announced the U.S. government has secured a 10% stake in struggling Silicon Valley pioneer Intel in a deal completed just a couple weeks after he depicted the company’s CEO as a conflicted leader unfit for the job.

President Donald Trump on Friday said the U.S. government had reached a deal to take a 10 percent equity stake in the chipmaker Intel, worth approximately $10 billion. “I said, I think it would be good having the United States as your partner,” Trump said Friday at the White House. “ [CEO Lip-Bu Tan] agreed, and they’ve agreed to do it.”
