A Risk Starbucks Won’t Mention: Howard Schultz Could Help Trump

I'm not sure I understand the point of this article except to write a hit piece against Howard Schultz. For shame, NYTimes.

Schultz is no longer the CEO of the company and it is easy for Starbucks to distance themselves from his campaign. A simple press release: "Howard was a great founder and we wish him well in his future endeavors".

Additionally, media should refer to him as: "Howard Schultz, the former CEO of Starbucks." That makes it clear that the two are no longer affiliated.

I'll believe it when I see it. Past experience tells me the twitterverse is not a good proxy for real life.
