## Resource

The White House dropped a lineup of arcade-style games on its official site, turning policy into play—“Rio Run” lets you score points by deporting border crossers, “Build The Wall” pits you against zombie invaders, and one game even lets you fly a bald eagle while another focuses on cashing out kids’ Trump accounts. Framed as a “culture of fun and winning” versus the “dark socialist vision” of Democrats, this bold digital push aims to weaponize the website like no administration before. But with a history of offensive imagery and criticism, this gaming strategy sparks debate: is it a savvy PR move or a distraction from pressing issues like war and inflation?
