They probably won't say it out loud.

But business owners will be careful about hiring new staff
or spending money.

Even if they pay Trump to go easy on them, he is a liar and cheat.
And can double cross them at any moment.

Also businesses never know if they are going to irritate Trump
politically and face retribution.
