If you have a CEO that keeps publicly lying and downplaying their actual issues, then yes, you do erode the trust.

Where did the Robin Hood CEO lie? Or what issues have they downplayed?

I haven't seen any actual reporting of any lies. Just a bunch of people speculating they were colluding in halting trading, when the actual reason was later demonstrated to be capital requirements.

If you have actual recent examples of lying, however, I'm curious.
