Frequently Asked Questions

What is Don's Cons?

Don's Cons is a free Trump-themed party game you play in your browser with friends. It's a judge-picks-the-best-card game in the style of Cards Against Humanity. Every card is grounded in something Don actually did or said.

Is the game really free?

Yes — completely free, no ads, no accounts, no paywall. If you enjoy it you can support us through the Support Don's Cons store, but you never have to.

Do I need to download an app?

No. Everything runs in the browser on any phone, tablet, or computer. One person starts a game, gets a 6-character room code, and everyone else joins with that code — like Jackbox, but free and with more grift.

How many players do I need?

The game needs at least 3 players and supports up to 10. Short on humans? You can add bots to fill out the room.

Can we play remotely, or do we have to be in the same room?

Either works. Games sync live over the internet, so your friends can join from anywhere — same couch or another country. For remote games, hop on a call together and share your room code or invite link.

Is Don's Cons like Cards Against Humanity?

The rhythm is the same: each round one player is the judge (the Reporter), everyone else plays the funniest card from their hand, and the judge picks a winner. The difference is the content — in Don's Cons, the prompt is a snarky press question about a real Trump scandal, and every response card is a real-style Don quote. If you like Cards Against Humanity, you already know how to play.

Are the Trump scandals real?

Yes. Every prompt card in Don's Cons is grounded in something Donald Trump actually did — the cards are satire, but the scandals behind them are documented. When a card sounds too absurd to be true, that's the game.

Where can I see the sources?

On The Receipts — every prompt card in the game, each backed by cited reporting from outlets like CNN, NPR, The Washington Post, Forbes, and PBS. When someone at the party says "that can't be true," that page is your answer.

Is this affiliated with Donald Trump?

Absolutely not. Don's Cons is independent political satire and parody. No affiliation, no endorsement — read A Note from Nate and Fred for why we made it.
