As a public person, he could just state the obvious if so.
Like with politicians in a lot of countries, their lifes [CEOs like him] are public and so must be for him, in order to ensure a minimun transparency.
If he really sees it in that way, he could just state it, yet he picks support as those who do what is convenient.
A lot of liberals follow trump, and not necessarily agree in everything with him. Just like a lot of people in germany supports Afd as they think it will improve the economy.
Yet all this is shit itself. The lack of universal ethics in those actions.
