‘He did nothing about it’: US lawmaker accuses Trump of shielding Huang, accepting a $25 million donation amid scandal
Democrats are questioning Donald Trump's handling of Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's alleged ties to a Chinese spy after reports that the president was briefed about the matter more than a year ago. Trump has denied prior knowledge but continues to publicly defend the tech executive.
Democratic Senator Chuck Schumer has accused President Donald Trump of shielding Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang after learning about Huang's alleged affair with a Chinese spy. Schumer claimed that Trump was briefed on the matter over a year ago, but did nothing about it. Instead, Trump took Huang to Beijing, accepted a $25 million donation from Nvidia, and described Huang as an "honorable man". The controversy has raised concerns about potential national security risks and whether sensitive information was exposed.
