Maybe, maybe an instant apology and deepest regrets and all that could somehow do damage control, but doubtful, especially if there was some history involved. And especially if he additionally had a spokesperson giving a "free commercial" for daughter items. How that could not result in some serious consequences, I don't know. That is Romanian democracy style.

Actually Trump tweeted it on his personal account (it was later re-tweeted on the POTUS page). Either way, it was probably stupid to do; however, I'm  not sure it is abuse of power as he didn't demand they continue the line.
