Nvidia is in search of a new CEO, and President Donald Trump has reportedly named former Apple CEO Tim Cook as a potential candidate for the role. This came after Jensen Huang stepped down as CEO following allegations of infidelity, including a reported affair with a Chinese spy. Currently, CFO of Nvidia is serving as the interim CEO.
In a recent interview on Truth Social, Trump said, "NOW THAT Nvidia CEO JENSEN HUANG, who has done a fantastic job, has resigned, there is only one man to take his place - TIM COOK of Apple." He further stated, "A Legend replaces a Legend!" On Stephen A.

Trump also mentioned that Cook, who recently semi-retired from Apple, would be a great fit for Nvidia due to his track record of building successful companies.
