Who pays to protect Trump Properties--conflict of interest?

If the host country, is it a violation of the Foreign Gifts Act. 5 USC §7342?

If the US government, is it a conflict of interest being receipt of special compensation from the nation by  an official?

Shouldn't Trump divest himself of all of his interests?

I was looking into this earlier and counted at least 40 Middle Eastern business ventures for Trump.

Put it this way -- if we have another 9/11-style attack, expect a much more ... restrained response

ISIS will go after Trump properties, count on it.  It's a sure bet, just for the name.

Trump refuses to sell, nor put the assets in a blind trust.  He's putting his children in charge...yep, the same children helping him vet his WH team.  They talked about Hillary going in for 'pay to play'...how much you think Trump Properties is getting for a job appointment in the WH?  He was just bribing the Florida AG and the Texas AG, and he had to pay out big time, and lose his Trump University lawsuit.

I'm telling you, he'll lose too much.  I'm betting he resigns.  Not worth it.

Back to business...who is going to pay for protection of Trump properties outside the US?  They are sure to be hit, with such a big name.
