    It sounds like a fair bit of them are either firing employees or insulting them. I don’t really get the appeal, but I also was pretty oblivious to Donald Trump until his Presidential run, so I assume that there are people out there who enjoy it.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_Trump_dolls

    The doll includes 17 phrases,[6] which Trump recorded.[4][12] The phrases, activated by pressing a button,[14] consist of quotes used by Trump on The Apprentice and in his 2004 book, Trump: How to Get Rich.[3] Phrases include:

    • “This one’s easy for me—you’re fired.”
    • “I have no choice but to tell you you’re fired.”
    • “I should fire myself just for having you around.”
    • “You really screwed up!”
    • “You really think you’re a good leader? I don’t.”

      Ah… yeah, so they are just 17 variants on “you’re fired!”, so they really couldn’t have picked a more inspiring example… maybe inspiring was a bad choice of word.
