It's Jan 6 everyday when you use a game controller to make a Trump dancing doll stomp on the US Constitution - the harder he stomps, the more damage to America and the higher the score shown on the arcade display!

Trump’s backdrop shows some of his violent fascist cronies in the January 6 insurrection: the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, 3 (III) Percenters, Missouri Senator Josh Hawley. The Russian flag colors of white, blue, and red in the bunting reference Trump's embrace of Russia's Putin, as do the Red Stars and the backward's 'R' in Trump's name.

In keeping with Trump's carnival sideshow aesthetic, Dance Dance Insurrection is housed in a cheap cardboard enclosure emblazoned with garish stickers. And noisy? The deafening clip-clop of the dance, combined with the relentless Bing-Bong-Ding! of the scoreboard, guarantees you won't be able to think straight - exactly what Trump wants.

This game is available for loan to anyone raising funds to combat the fascists and white supremacists trying to destroy the United States. It’s portable and battery-powered, making it trivial to set up. All that’s needed is a tabletop. Contact me and let's talk!

This Dancing Doll, also known as a Jig Doll or Limberjack, takes a traditional toy-making technique and updates it for today's insanity.
