It wasn’t the ‘mistress’ part that bothered anyone. It was the ‘Spy’ and smuggling part that was what brought him down.
Also the “customer”/“conflict-of-interest” part.
Because the “mistress” part is a distraction from circular financing, and smuggling GPUs to countries that shouldn’t have them. Including Russia, into Russian drones, used to attack civilian homes, which makes Jensen Huang a war criminal.
The scandal isn’t the cheating, it’s selling products to Chinese countries despite export restrictions, the cheating was just a vehicle for that. As heinous as it is, Trump’s paedophilia doesn’t have an impact on the global economy.
Except when he’s pressured by the Epstein class into starting a war with Iran and raising the cost of energy.
Shareholders have more power than voters. And actually care about results.
Ok, ez explain:
Nations are social structures with often a prime leader
Global Megacorps are demonic machine entities with no objective other than to engulf and consume to grow and it will replace any human at any position to continue performing its task. It is not checked or controlled by anybody and will kill and sabotage and destroy anything for even the littlest amount of growth until the planet is used up and humanity extinct and maybe not even stop then
The power the shareholders have on a company cannot be understated, and they get scared easily.
Trump has shareholders too. Russia, israel, the Epstein class…
Those are stakeholders. It’s a bit different.
The ONE billionaire CEO who didn’t go after kids.
(as far as we know.)
More so the smuggling of chips then the mistress. People are saying it’s the mistress to try and distract the public from the smuggling that makes up 20% of nvidia sales
Seeing as the Trump admin very likely knew about and tolerated the smuggling, it also seems to be a pretext as much as the Mistress or Spy angle.
Still, cheating on your spouse is more immoral than smuggling chips. And child rape is among the worse things a human can do to another.
But only one of those matters in this country and it wasn’t even a crime until a couple of years ago.
And that’s a fucking problem.
Ousting the CEO was a bottom dollar decision, not a morality decision. A corporation breaking US export control laws for ITAR technology has a much greater impact on investor bottom lines than any type of CEO sex scandal.
I’m not trying to say “won’t someone think of the children” here. I just think that’s worse than a honeypot.
And it certainly doesn’t help that powerful people are waiting for this bubble to pop.
So obviously a lot of fools that can’t connect the obvious dots are going to say ALLEGED pedophile. Ok, fine. However, he is an adjudicated rapist. So you can say that in the U.S. being an actual rapist doesn’t bring down a president and have it be 100% undeniably true.
The bar has been lowered. Severely. And the only way to raise that bar again is to bring justice to the rapist desecrating the office of the presidency.
I mean, we really ought to just never have a president again. Too much power concentrated in one place.
The problem is that we effectively haven’t had a congress for several decades now. They’re supposed to be the ones to check presidential power.
I think we’d be a lot better off if we had staggered nationwide elections for individual cabinet posts and let them run the country.
The US should have a leader who is technically the head of the country but whose powers are basically ceremonial. He should swear in the leader of the house, appoint certain high-ranking officials (on the consent of the house leader) and sign laws into effect. He could be the one sent to other countries as a representative of the USA, and he’d be welcomed with red carpets, etc. But, he couldn’t actually enter any negotiations or anything. He could even wear a military uniform to look extra cool.
In short, the US should have a King.
There are plenty of parliamentary republics (Germany, Italy, Austria, India, Ireland, Israel) where the president has mostly ceremonial and representative duties
No need to revert back to monarchy.
It’s safer though. These days “President” has a terrible connotation in the US. Freshen things up with a ceremonial king.
It’s not about having a mistress. Huang is successfully controlling the narrative which is the actual shocker. Do people even realize Elon fucking Musk… exists?! You know, as in being a CEO of SpaceX and Tesla? The guy has more children with affairs than he attends board meetings and nobody ever cared.
It was never about that at all for Huang but about illegally smuggling hardware into China, cozying up to Trump and the Democrats subsequently sweeping the midterms. He fears for a harsh sentence under a different president so he wants this to be over quickly and get a pardon. It’s blatantly obvious he controls the narrative to different affairs as soon as people start asking the actual questions and it’s painful to see people falling for it.
Is he though? Public opinion doesn’t really matter and he’s already been summoned to testify before Congress about it.
Pretty sure the people that actually matter here are all about the illegal Chinese smuggling bit and not the sex.
Summoned to testify. How often do any of these investigations result in people going to jail? He’s rich af, so odds are nothing will happen to him.
Well, Congress has no ability to charge anyone with a crime. That’s the DOJ. And Congress has referred charges to the DOJ several times.
None. It’s not a legitimate court. It’s a court of public opinion, at best.
We’ll see, but the original post is clearly not aware that the reason he’s in trouble is because he just got caught doing big big crimes with his mistress.
The sex stuff is fine, no one cares. It’s all the international crimes they were doing that is a no-no.
Yeah, that’s what I said?
He’s actually in trouble because of the criminal stuff. Not because some idiots online think it’s because of the affairs.
That was my point. Some dipshit twitter users aren’t actually affecting anything. He’s not “controlling the narrative” at all when he’s still facing a huge criminal shitstorm.
All the other billionaires are shocked and sickened by his inexplicable attraction to age appropriate women
this happened in hungary too lol, orban and his gaggle of authoritarians tried to bury our then-candidate pm with a scandal that he’s been having consensual sex with an adult woman
Wait, like not even an affair?
nope, he got divorced like a year before his political debut and hasn’t been married since. they haven’t even accused him of cheating on another girlfriend or anything
The horror! I’d never say yes to consent!
lmao
So that’s where the bar is, apparently
Wasn’t she still younger, just not underage?
He is 63. She is 49. Doesn’t seem too problematic for me.
Not sure about the second affair.
i think the problematic element of the second affair was that she was his direct report, not an age gap either
Third as well.
It’s quite simple really: Trump has made billionaires a ton of money and his paedophilia has no ill effect on it. Huang’s affairs have cost billionaires a ton of money.
It’s never been about morals, just money
This.
Whatever you do, you should just follow the money.
Because the circumstances of the CEO affair are inconvenient to the shareholders.
PS: Three! Three Hwang-mistresses so far, ah… ah… ah…
When it comes the Republican party here in the States, they only posture and clutch pearls only when a Democrat is scandalous. When Roy Moore and and Matt Gaetz were discovered preying on underage teens, they didn’t even blink.
The Democratic party cuts into its own when there are sex scandals, even when it’s grownup matters, like harassment of staffers or prior colleagues.
In general, company investors aren’t part of a cult. SpaceX and Tesla are another matter, but in general it’s about whether the company makes money or not.
Politics was already cultish. People would care more about the success of their team, rather than how their lives improved. When Trump came along the level of cultness went up a few notches.
Also, if it were just an affair it would be quickly forgotten. What matters is that it was an affair with a spy working for a government that’s an adversary to the US. And he’s the CEO of a company that is not allowed to export its most high-tech products to that adversary.
Ha, that’s just goofy.
See Epstein files for details. What we have seen (like flight logs) proves you wrong.
Biden didn’t do a thing.
(Bill Clinton, Dershowitz, Senator Glenn, and many others. Trump was just one of many)
It’s not cheating on his wife that did in the CEO, it’s cheating on his wife with an alleged spy while also possibly being involved with chip smuggling.
They’re def not ousting him from some morality. He broke embargo with China you’re 100% right.
It’s just a little bit of treason! uWu…
/s
Also, shagging your subordinates is a big no no in US corporate governance.
The nono is having it plastered publically. If it’s an open secret within the industry, people in power don’t care because it doesn’t affect their power. It just becomes a lever to pull when you decide to oust someone from power.
It’s one of those things where it’s always going to happen tolerated to a degree, with enforcement being selective both as a pragmatic necessity and as political leverage. It’s kind of the western equivalent of tax evasion in China where there’s a whole industry that’s allowed to exist for wealthy people, the government knows about it, but they’ll only crack down if it gets too excessive or when someone steps out of line.
pfff, moralistic theatre
