Does anyone realistically think that "where's he staying?" doesn't become the first question Trump asks before meeting with a foreign diplomat? The actual money paid to the hotel and where it ends up is absolutely meaningless. Trump values his reputation above everything else, even above money, and staying at his hotel is clearly going to be a way to curry favor with him. It's not explicitly that he profits from anyone staying in his hotel that would worry me; it's that he can be influenced by anyone staying at his hotel.
