After watching all the crazy stuff going on in the media with Donald Trump lately, and especially the awesome Trump parody on Saturday Night Live this weekend, I thought hey... what the world needs now is some kind of Trump video game! Hopefully a spoof type game, but anything really. :)
So, I headed to google and searched around to see if there was an off chance that such a game might already exist and I found two such games. The first was a recent Mexican web based game where you throw things at Trump to try to knock him out, presumably for his views on immigration... and the second was an Activision real estate game from 2002 which upon closer inspection looks like it might be a lot of fun. It's essentially a city builder economic simulator type game where you compete in the world of real estate and can eventually try to challenge The Donald yourself at his own game.
Here is the Wikipedia page on the game:

The game is not available on Steam or any other mainstream sites that I can tell, but it is still available on Amazon on CD/DVD at least although they do not ship to Canada so it is US-only.
I admire his business acumen, and also have enjoyed The Apprentice series on TV but I think he's an absolute douchebag jerk to say the least, but I'd love to be able to play a video game to try to beat him even though it wouldn't really be him on the other end. :)
It looks like a lot of fun so I added it to the GOG wishlist, feel free to vote on it if you also would like to play this game:
