Apologizing is (unfortunately) a trap for a public figure in this modern era, it basically never helps, as its viewed as an admission of wrongdoing by your enemies,(who will bring it up at every opportunity going forward) and weakness by your allies who supported you.(who will not support you again if something new happens as they viewed the time they spent prior wasted)
