Trump suggests Tim Cook replace Jensen Huang as Nvidia chief

President Donald Trump has suggested Tim Cook take over as Nvidia chief executive after Jensen Huang resigned. The proposal matters because it links the leadership of a major chipmaker to a prominent former technology chief, though Cook has not indicated he would accept the role.

Trump named Cook in a Truth Social post and repeated the idea on a podcast, praising his record at Apple and calling him a strong candidate. Nvidia is being run on an interim basis by its chief financial officer; the article says the resignation followed reports of affairs, including an alleged connection to a Chinese spy. Trump said he had spoken with Huang and that whether the woman was a spy remained undetermined. Apple and Nvidia had not responded to requests for comment.
