You think "Wall Street and the powers that be" forced Nvidia's CEO to have affair(s)? | ||

No, but I think there is a financial motivation in coordinating the release of information to destroy him. Reports that Lutnick and Trump knew about the spy situation for some time and allowed it to continue without informing Jensen goes a long way towards establishing a kind of coordination. Once you start with the spy and national security angle, then you can get access to internal HR reports, and through these and media coordinating, a misrepresentation of the situation is doing the damage that was intended. There is no public evidence that she was a spy, that Jensen revealed any secrets during the affair, or that Jensen was involved in any of the blackmarket dealings for GPUs. There is no evidence he exploited his power to have any affairs with anyone who works at nVidia either. All thats left are two relationships he shouldnt have had with two nVidia employees and that is not criminal, or for many a reason to lose the company you basically created. Meanwhile, its obvious that the commerce secretary worked with nVidia to slow roll the addition of shell companies where the blackmarket trades were happening. This is the most damning accusation, and if Jensens $25 million Trump ballroom donation was a payment to have them look the other way while nVidia knew they circumvented export controls, then that is a legitimate reason for him to resign. Because that is a series of criminal acts, and you know without a doubt that Lutnick, Trump and others were personally benefitting from this arrangement and is likely why they knew about the "spy" situation and did nothing. But again, even this is just speculation and we wont know, maybe forever what really went on behind the scenes. Either way, it is a coordinated, well planned action to sort of drip a media narrative to get him out of the way. | ||
