I guess it's global supply chains when it's convenient for your argument, but not when it's inconvenient? Does Denmark build all the Ikea furniture?

Who do you think designs the MacBook, chipsets, and more? Who designs and builds the semiconductors for your Lenovo laptop?

Why don't you tell us?

Sure ok - tell me what I'm missing.

Are you unaware that Apple designs the MacBook and A/M series chips?

I was just going off what you wrote. I buy locally handmade furniture and haven't bought anything from Ikea since college. Anyway, Sweden doesn't build all of this stuff either.

Again, global supply chains when it's convenient for your argument.
