DEMI-DONALDS

EVERY child's dream has come true, now that Donald Trump is selling 1-foot-tall doll versions of himself. The tiny Trumps contain sound chips that say "You're Fired!" They're the brainchild of Hot Records president Victor Btesh, who unsuccessfully tried out for "The Apprentice 2." Even though he didn't make the show, Btesh managed to sell Trump on the Liliputian likenesses. "He loved the idea, and now my company is partnered with the Trump Organization and will be making a Donald Trump doll along with action figures of Good Charlotte, The Beatles, 'Alias' and 'The Osbournes,' " Btesh said. The dolls should be hitting stores this summer.
