I agree.
I also think that Trump really, sincerely does not comprehend why it's wrong for an elected official to use his or her position for personal financial gain. I think that he figures that if he's doing the job, benefiting personally from it is a completely ethical perk of the job.
I think he sees the requirement to surrender control of his business empire while he's President as some kind of overly fussy technicality - and one that a smart businessman like himself can work around if he wants to.
