Exactly, Trump will still keep most of the payments. Any profits will first be deducted against previous losses too, so foreign payments will help offset past losses.
Not only that, if large amounts are added to the Treasury despite whatever book keeping shell game is done, then Trump STILL benefits. Just the appearance of donating money to the Treasury is beneficial, politically and to his brand (which is his primary asset). So it could still be used to gain favour.
EDIT: You know that he'll go on and on about how much he gave to the US Treasury at every
campaign speech press conference.
