Nvidia CEO Lavishes Praises on Trump

November 03, 202501:17
00:00:00
Nvidia just became the first company in
00:00:01
history to hit the $5 trillion in market
00:00:04
value a little over 3 months after it
00:00:06
hit the $4 trillion mark. The company's
00:00:08
also taking a $1 billion stake in Nokia,
00:00:11
plus partnering with Oracle to build the
00:00:13
energy department's largest ever AI
00:00:15
supercomputer and Nvidia's annual
00:00:16
conference. CEO Jensen Wong took an
00:00:19
opportunity to lavish praise on Donald
00:00:20
Bell and Trump. Why wouldn't he? Trump
00:00:22
has made him really rich.
00:00:23
President Trump gets deserves enormous
00:00:26
credit. We need energy to win. Let me
00:00:28
interpret for all of you out there what
00:00:29
he was saying. Mr. President, let me
00:00:32
sell my to China. Let me sell my
00:00:36
chips into China and ignore all of the
00:00:39
concerns from the defense department
00:00:41
and look how rich I've gotten off of
00:00:43
you. He probably looked at a Cisco or
00:00:45
something like that and and is so much
00:00:47
smarter. He doesn't want AMD to show up.
00:00:49
He wants to avoid the mistakes of Intel
00:00:52
over the years. He kind of wants to own
00:00:54
it. And so sucking up to Trump, he'll do
00:00:56
it. He has no problem doing it
00:00:58
whatsoever. Though he dresses like a
00:01:00
very attractive lesbian, I think. Well,
00:01:02
look at look at that outfit. Like the
00:01:04
leather. I have that exact leather
00:01:05
jacket.
00:01:06
I'm sure that's what he's going for.
00:01:07
That's what he says to his stylist. Hot
00:01:09
lesbian. That's what I want my closet to
00:01:11
look like.
