  "account": "On Thursday, US President Donald Trump suggested former Apple CEO Tim Cook should replace Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, following Huang's resignation due to revelations of two affairs, including one with a Chinese spy. Trump made the proposal on his Truth Social network, stating, \"A Legend replaces a Legend!\" Despite not holding formal authority over Nvidia, Trump's intervention highlights his close relationship with both Huang and Cook. During his second term, Trump has treated Nvidia co-founder Huang as a trusted adviser, even accompanying him on Air Force One for a state visit to China in May. Trump has defended Huang, claiming he was unaware of the Chinese spy allegations involving Alice Huang, the alleged Chinese spy. However, questions remain about when Trump became aware of the allegations. Cook, who stepped down as Apple CEO in September but remains the company's executive chair, is among the prominent tech figures surrounding the White House since Trump's return to office. In August 2025, Cook and Trump met in the Oval Office to announce a $600 billion increase in Apple's US investments, and Cook accompanied Trump to China in May. Together, they attended the White House state banquet for Chinese President Xi in September.",
  "summary": "Donald Trump said on Truth Social that Apple’s Tim Cook was the only person who could replace Jensen Huang as Nvidia CEO, praising Huang for having done a 'fantastic job'.",
