Trump says Nvidia CEO had ‘no idea’ lover was alleged Chinese spy
Jensen Huang sent a message to Nvidia employees on Sunday acknowledging that he had an affair.
US President Donald Trump expressed concern for Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang on Monday, stating the tech executive was "suffering greatly" and had no awareness that his alleged affair partner was an alleged Chinese spy. Trump spoke to Huang earlier Monday, calling the Taiwanese-born businessman an "amazing guy," and expressing belief in his innocence.
Huang had previously acknowledged his affair and apologized in a message to Nvidia employees on Sunday. When asked by reporters if he had been aware of the allegations when he accompanied Huang to China in May, Trump responded, "Not too long ago. We’ll look into it. I know the FBI is looking into it in terms of something else, and I think he’ll be in good shape."
