"I volunteer as tribute!" -Totally normal things for athletes to say
I'm glad that's not a thing anyone has said in real life then.
Look, no one involved in coming up with this idea tied it to the hunger games, and no one thinks that you'll actually have a "I volunteer as tribute" type thing going. And, not to put to fine a point on it, but "volunteering as tribute" loses a lot of it's negative connotation when it's not literally volunteering to go die in a gladiator pit.
Trump has done innumerable things to be upset about. We don't need to make up fake rage bait. Just look at the actual bad things he's doing.
