Trumpopoly anyone? Donald does Real Estate Reality TV

Seems perennial spotlight seeker Donald Trump is planning to brand yet another American Icon, Monopoly. Variety reports that he is set to be involved in a live-action Monopoly style reality TV show in conjunction with the classic game's maker, Hasbro.

--- While Variety offers no specifics, it does say the reality series will involve a game element in which contestants will somehow acquire likely dilapidated properties and fix them up in order to maximize their net worth. ---

I assume the premise would be to get a property fix it, sell it, make a profit, buy more property, fix it, sell it for a profit, and so on. Sounds like they should name it "The Apprentice". You know they're gonna find the most obnoxious control freaks who have never held a hammer and let them loose in Home Depot with nothing but "expert help" from Ty Pennington and a copy of Trump: Think Like a Billionaire.
