Not just experienced staff but an entire ecosystem of supporting startups, industry, talent, and infrastructure around the main fabs.
You forgot education in your list, which the current administration is also at odds with.

It's been good for everyone. Quality of life in the US has risen with GDP.
"Let them eat growth!"
We used to actually have starving people in this country, now we talk about "food insecurity".

Don’t blame imports for our sclerotic country banning construction nationwide. Plenty of countries have spent billions on new construction in the US and gotten smoked. The buildings still stand though.

What are the current administration's education policies that you think will have the most negative impact on our domestic manufacturing capabilities?

Also, by definition, if dollars left the country then stuff came in. We literally traded bit flips in a database for tangible stuff.
...and then whoever sold us the goods turns around and uses those dollars to bid up US assets. Next time you are bidding for a house, take some time to appreciate just how expensive those bit flips have made things. It did make it easy to raise capital, though, which is nice.
Predominantly US financial assets, like Treasuries and company equity.

You say that like economic growth hasn't led to cheaper food. We used to actually have starving people in this country, now we talk about "food insecurity".

The modems are made by _Qual_comm, not Broadcom. Different company.
Apple now designs its own modems, and its TSMC that fabs them. OP is asking if Broadcom might start fabbing those modems. This is not the case here, but you seem to ignore the fact Apple is a modem designer now.
