Trump Praises Nvidia CEO Amid Probe Into Affair With Suspected Spy

I have not spoken to him about it. I just know he's a fine person, but you never know what is going on. Um, I'm sure I hope everything's fine. Yeah. He's done such an incredible job. And uh, so I would certainly hope it. He's a fine person in my opinion.

In hindsight, do you wish that you would have acted on the intelligence when you were briefed about the spying?

No, I don't think so. I think, you know, I think he's an honorable guy. I think he probably has an excuse for it, you know, you have to hear it. No, you can't do that with people. He was uh he's done an amazing job for our country.

Should he stay on as CEO of Nvidia?

I think so. Oh yeah, sure.

Mr. President, is he going to go with you on your trip to Asia next week?

I don't know, but I'd certainly take him. I mean, we'd have to find. I haven't heard he's done anything wrong.
