Intel Corp. Chief Executive Officer Brian Krzanich has stumbled into the contentious debate over the presidential campaign by planning -- then canceling -- a fundraiser for presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump.
Krzanich called off the event, which was to be held at his home in California, after the semiconductor maker received an inquiry about it from the New York Times, according to people familiar with the situation. The newspaper reported on the fundraiser’s cancellation on Wednesday.
