You're looking at this in black and white. The CEO praised one of the administrations picks for being tough on big tech. While I think he's wrong in his statement on who stands for "the little guys" praising one pick for her stance on big tech does not mean he wholly supports the administration and it's actions.

“Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?”

Not all things require an equal reaction. Someone saying "this pick has a good track record" doesn't require the same level of drama as if he had said everything this administration does is awesome.
