President Trump calls on Tim Cook to be next NVIDIA CEO

Jensen Huang is out as CEO of NVIDIA after reported love affairs with an alleged Chinese spy and a high-ranking executive at the company. Naturally, the American President has called on former Apple CEO Tim Cook to take over as chief executive officer of NVIDIA.

In a post on Truth Social today, President Trump declared that “there is only one man to take his place,” nominating, in spirit, Tim Cook to replace Jensen Huang.

In reality, that’s probably as far as the Tim Cook/NVIDIA wish casting will go. Cook is enjoying a post-CEO run at Apple as executive chairman of the board.

Part of his responsibilities in the high-paying role include interfacing with world leaders like Trump — even when they suggest he re-enter the CEO workforce.

Anyway, the contrast between Apple’s “textbook” CEO transition and NVIDIA’s disaster version caused by Jensen Huang’s repeated infidelity is on full display.
