I think this is fake. According to this article, there were fake reports of things he said in regards to the event. Here is an article about the situation. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/piotr-szczerek-polish-ceo-us-open-child-hat-b2817864.html
Do you have eyes?
To me, the video does not match his current apology

OK, please hop back onto youtube and block that AI slop so that it never shows up in your feed again.
Okay, so the video I posted is AI bullshit. Right. But I've seen the clip within the video of him grabbing the hat from the kid on numerous other non-youtube videos.
Very shortly, I will back away from all of these social media and video playback services completely. I'm too old to deal with this bullshit.
That CEO is a c-word. A fucking cunt.
AI? Feck. I don't think I can handle it
I'm not debating whether he is an asshole or not. He probably is. However, we don't need to put words into his mouth to see that. Creating fake quotes to make him seem even worse than he is is how the right wingers do it. I'm not going down that road. That's what I meant when I said the quote was a likely a lie. As of that article the only person he'd spoken to about it was that journalist, and he didn't say what's in the OP.
