That's amazing stuff from a CEO of a large corporation... You must be some sort of demon to make him do that stuff...
For a guy who supposedly has his stuff together, he didn't express any regret in a meaningful way. Either his ability to backtrack his statements is impaired, he doesn't communicate well, or he doesn't have any heartfelt message to express.
On rereading it, maybe he learned something, or sorted out that he, too, (like Trump) meant that no violence is acceptable from anyone, and that he had indeed stepped in it, bigtime.
He did get one thing right, imho, the story (headline) should not have happened. Sometimes it behooves people to just shut up and sing.
