One passed me on the street a month ago and every single person raised an eyebrow, even the girls who went to church with the driver and said hi to him looked mildly apologetic as though they didn’t really want to be associated with any of it, but were too polite to say so.
I’d be surprised if sales ever recovered. Then again I was surprised the board approved a trillion dollar pay package for the guy. Maybe people think he still has a Midas touch despite the backlash.
