To be clear, the administration is making racist arcade games (e.g., a Tetris knock-off about the Mexican border that portrays Mexicans as literal aliens and zombies), not causing other people to make their arcade games racist.
I'm disappointed they don't have a missile command clone where you have to shoot down the shaheds with your ever-dwindling stockpile of patriots before you lose every base in the Persian gulf.

These games are toxic and dark, and would be moderated on a marketplace like Steam. And Steam has fair share of dark games.

i doubt it, there are quite a few low-quality asset-flip games build around politically-incorrect memes on steam.

The most controversial one I can think of is a school shooting simulator. But I doubt it's live now.
Even if there are dark games, they are meant to be parody/satire. Certainly not done in the same spirit what the white house is doing here.

Curious who will be playing and enjoying these

I think that about a lot of vibe-coded games, most of the ones I see posted here are barely playable and rudimentary at best. And as propaganda games go, these aren't even very clever.

Isn't the goal of tetris to not build the wall!?!?
EDIT: good lord this is cringe, it doesn't even clear lines when you complete them. It's impossible to not get a game-over because the screen fills up regardless of whether or not you play well.
Not that I was ever expecting quality from Donald Trump's vibecode boomer-meme slop but I thought they could at least bother to correctly implement the simplest and most recognizable video game of all time, especially since it's going on whitehouse.gov.

My reply here is just bout the one quote. I more or less agree with the sentiment of your post. But..
Isn't the goal of tetris to not build the wall!?!?
I think the point of the game tetris is to build a wall or at least could be thought of that way. Each line that you completed and moves off the bottom of the screen is a completed section of wall and the goal is to make a hole free wall for as long as you can.

Why is building a wall racist?

Because the president of the US is trying to deflect attention from wanting to sleep with his daughter, having a sex trafficking friend and probably sleeping with children, and being bad at starting wars by blaming foreigners for Americas problems?
But you know this already.

It’s not. It’s a border and if you’re not a child you understand why borders are necessary and why literally every country has one. But this board is full of leftists so good luck.
