Kara Swisher, a left-leaning journalist, criticized President Trump's response to a scandal involving outgoing Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, according to a report from The Hill. The scandal involves an extramarital affair with a suspected Chinese spy, the report said.

The Hill reported that Swisher said the president is downplaying the seriousness of the allegations. In an interview with CNN, she said the president has to say nothing is going on, because if something were, “he's in real trouble.”

Ford McCracken wrote the report for The Hill. The summary of that report does not describe the president's own comments on the allegations, so his specific response could not be verified for this story.

The Hill's summary describes Huang as outgoing but does not say when his departure takes effect or who will succeed him. It also provides no further details about the suspected spy.

The Hill's summary describes Swisher as a left-leaning journalist and presents her comments as a critique of how the president has responded to the allegations.

The summary ends mid-sentence in its reference to CNN's interview, so the full remarks and any additional context in The Hill's report could not be checked. Reporting from other outlets was not included in the materials used for this story.
