We've all seen the tweets, the speeches, and, of course, the memes. He's the entrepreneur turned reality TV star who took his catchphrase "You're fired!" all the way to the Oval Office. But is your Trump trivia up to par?

Either way, it's time to see if you can distinguish between the facts and the fake news.

We're not just building a quiz here; we're building a wall... of questions! So buckle up, because this is going to be 'uge!
High Stakes and Court Dates
Buckle up, quiz whizzes, because we're about to take a wild ride through a maze of gavels and golf tees. From courtroom clashes to tee-off tantrums, let's dive deep into the legal sagas that have put a whole new spin on political drama.
From The White House To The Courthouse
Once upon a presidency, there were high hopes and big dreams. But post-Oval Office life for President Trump has been more about legal briefs than legislative triumphs. The jump from the White House to the courtroom was not on any presidential bingo card! Trump faces a mountain of litigation, from the supreme court showdowns to the heated New York skirmishes with Attorney General Letitia James and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. With indictments for alleged mishandling classified documents and whispers of conspiracy, Trump's trial dates are filling up faster than seats at a state dinner!
Legal Links and Golf Swings
Remember when golf clubs were just about birdies and bogeys? Well, those days are long gone. Now, Mar-a-Lago doesn't only ring out with the sounds of irons striking balls but also has echoes of FBI searches for classified documents. And let's not forget the legal eagles aka the legal experts peering over the parapet, providing 18 holes' worth of commentary. Trump may be hoping for a mulligan, but with so much in play, even a speedy trial might feel like slow motion.
Social Media and Public Statements
Meanwhile, in the digital realm, Trump's fingers have been dancing across the keyboard of Truth Social with the finesse of a pianist—only this concert plays out in bursts of tweets, teeing off with every post. Social media has become his green where he drives public statements down the fairway, straight into the eager laps of reporters and followers alike. Whether it's about Mike Pence or Merrick Garland, the online world is his roundtable, minus the table and, well, the round.
The Price of Politics
Curious how the high-stakes game of politics shakes out in dollar signs? Let's unpack the wallet-walloping world of campaign cash and the mogul money maze.
Election Echoes and Fundraising Fevers
Ever wondered what a presidential campaign burns through faster than a wildfire through a wad of cash? That's right, we're talking big bucks for ballots. According to OpenSecrets, Our pal Donald J. Trump has been riding the fundraising roller coaster harder than most, banking more than any other political joyrider in this rambunctious race. His 2024 campaign war chest is a treasure trove that would make even Scrooge McDuck blink. But it's not just the moolah—those fundraising emails can roar into inboxes louder than a jet engine, promising an "innocent man" is under threat from some bias-fueled boogeyman in New Jersey or Georgia, depending on the day.
The Net Worth Web
Now, hold on to your top hats, because the former President isn't just a political player; he's a virtuoso of value. Trump's net worth has been a bouncing ball, subject to the whims of market trends and real estate tides. Can you imagine playing Monopoly with actual skyscrapers? And just when you thought the plot couldn't thicken any more than our dearest Trump's bank account, along comes Letitia James, stirring the pot with legal ladles in New York, and making us wonder: what's the next chapter in this saga of wealth and wiles? Can we get a speech on that, or what?
Sticking with us through the cash carnival? Don your monocles, folks, because money in politics is always a spectacle worth the price of admission!
