Interesting. Even beyond the world of aviation.

If a passenger would slap a cabin attendant what would you do?

It's not because you are a pilot/cabin attendant/passenger, the consequences of your behaviour would change. Violence is violence. Some people (politicians ie) are "protected" from sanctions, that does not mean they are free from the question if they can maintain their position or have to be removed from that position instantly.

Can Trump hit an employee in one of his hotels?

If a passenger slaps a cabin attendant, it is a very good reason to divert and land asap. If a pilot would slap one in the face he should also be considered "incapacitated" and it becomes single pilot operation. In other words, emergency + diversion.

It becomes more interesting if you step back a lot and try to find out the reason why he slapped in the first place and who should be considered incapacitated.

Couldn't help it...
