Republican US Senator Kevin Cramer, a member of the Senate Banking Committee, has called on Jensen Huang to step down as chief executive of Nvidia, Politico reported late on Tuesday.

“The potential for extortion is so tremendous that something as sensitive as Nvidia chips, I just think he’s got to go,” Cramer told the outlet.

The comments follow President Donald Trump’s statement on Monday that the FBI was looking into Huang’s affair with a Chinese businesswoman alleged to be a spy for Beijing.
