Trump's conflict of interest with no clear fire wall between him and his influence with business interests will be tempered by the other party involved. There will be countries that will want to pander to Mr. Trump, by staying at his hotels and more, but, the country represented in those transactions have opinions back home that will be leveraged.

Will there be quid pro quo? That is a possibility.

Oppositional candidates in other countries dealing with Trump will find such scandals work in their favor.

Being a business man/president-elect does not excuse him from ethics and laws. Mr. Trump needs to up his ethics game rather than brutalizing the world with objectionable language that alienates diplomats.
