Eeeewww! I have never seen anything tackier in my entire life, and I’m Balkan!
This would be REALLY Corrupt if he was President who ALSO Ran every and ALL Agencies that REGULATED this thing! FORTUNATELY Trump is ONLY the President who has Lackeys who Run ALL the Agencies that Regulate this and do LITERALLY WHATEVER he says! So it’s NOT Corrupt!
Looking forward to a map produced next year by some thinly veiled US-supported NGO that shows corruption in the world and America will still be not corrupt but America’s enemies will be very corrupt.
Hungary already kind of did that.
Looking at the webpage, it’s obviously a 100% Chinese product licensing the Trump name.
There are numerous errors on the page, from a processor section that doesn’t list a processor, RAM that’s described as storage, and the boast of a “5000mAh long life camera,” when it presumably means the battery.
If you ever thought the Trumps weren’t grifters, this should clear it up:
“Trump Mobile is going to revolutionize cellphones, mobile calling,” Eric Trump told Fox News
There’s absolutely nothing revolutionary here. It’s a cheap Chinese phone in a tacky case and an overpriced very-not-new MVNO phone service.
That’s all he’s ever done. License his name. Trump steaks. Trump water. Trump University. List goes on
It’s stunning how these people can say this stupid shit with a straight face. 😂
I’m other words, it’s just another example of how not to do business that all the rubes will throw money at.
Awesome.
Next: Watch the Trump administration try to force the big national carriers to give preferential treatment to Trump Mobile on their radio hardware
I think he’ll try bigger and simply try to nationalize or end licensing for the big 4.
But it has “5000mAh long life camera”. Seems good to me.
I mean, my phone doesn’t have that.
Hearing you can download as much RAM as you need on this phone too. CHECKMATE LIBS
Idk the exact number but the camera in my phone probably weighs like a gram or so, so Einstein tells me I’m carrying about 25,000,000 kWh in the camera alone, which if served at 5V would be ~
5,000,000,0005,000,000,000,000 mAh.Guess I’m winning.
Edit: mafs.
Can’t wait to read from which part of China this “American built” phone is made
Yeah, if they’re not lying it will be the worse phone ever made. The US-made Purism Liberty is $2000 and has similar specs to the Asia-made, $800 Librem 5, which is already overpriced compared to Android devices.
You are not joking. Comparing a $2000 Purism Liberty with eg. a $200 HMD Fusion. The Fusion has somewhat better screen and battery; much better processor and camera. More RAM, the option of more storage, has NFC. It’s also designed to be easy-to-maintain, but is somewhat thinner and lighter despite having a larger screen area. Are ‘made in USA’ and ‘open-source drivers’ worth paying 10x as much for a noticeably worse phone? (It’s not really ‘made in USA’ either - it’s a mix of US, Chinese and Indian parts assembled in the USA.)
I think that the people who believe a US-made iPhone will also cost $2k are kidding themselves - economy of scale and all that, but it must be substantially more.
3 years of security updates, ships with Android 14 and gets two version upgrades, to Android 16, which is the version being released right now. I feel that isn’t the solution either.
Open source drivers means the manufacturers might not backdoor rootkit. Imagine how much money they’re leaving on the table not being able to sell spying on you?
Hey, the “building” of a phone is the part where Mercans put in those tiny screws, as suggested by Administration staff. The low-tech stuff, like fabricating doublesided circuit boards and the microcircuit and mucrowave filter parts mounted on them, all that easy cheap stuff can be done by other people to support the screwers.
That’s going to have a wider back door than an onlyfans model.
Who is still buying all these crappy products? Is it all just bribes from foreign countries?
There are at least 70 million weapons-grade mentally-ill people in the USA, radicalized and stupified with decades of psychological warfare.
trump could sell bowls of diarrhea with his name on it for $1000, and his sucker cultist followers would take out loans to buy it
Coming soon: Trump™ Payday Loans! With only 470% APR!
For the people buying it, the product itself doesn’t matter. It’s got Trump’s name on it and the money they spend goes to him, so he can “own the libs”
Gullible conservative simps
eventually it will be illegal to use anything but Trump products
and at some point Trump to want to be the calendar, too.
edit: and that phone will prolly turn off if you record the police; and I can’t imagine the amount of spying on users that that phone must do.
Top features:
PATRIOTIC bloatware with Mahjong
Lee Greenwood and Kid Rock ringtones
“Starlink GPS” on the box but it’s hastily scratched out in tear-stained whiteboard marker
He was pissed to find out Ceaser has his own entire month.
Caesar not only got a month Caesar rewrote the calendar. It was called the Julian Calendar and used for like a 1500 years.
Trump will try to do the same.
And then all the history books will be “Trump History” so that everyone can finally learn the history as Trump sees it
It’s available to preorder now with a $100 deposit
and might actually not even be real because he’s a con man
Dude I hope it’s popular. Imagine the selling point other networks could have:
New feature: Fash Block.
We guarantee our mobile network cannot send or recieve calls to any users on Trump Mobile.
You’re fucking shitting me. I refuse to believe that’s reality and you can’t convince me otherwise.
Let me sell you a Trump steak.
Not only am I aware but I worked for Omaha Steaks when he kicked that off.
I wish you a speedy and affordable recovery
I’m aware…

The Trump-branded T1 Phone will apparently be made in America.
I laughed so hard I peed myself
Thank you for this gif
No problem. It’s a classic from my meme collection that is so vintage, it predates smartphones. I needed a good excuse to dust it off.
“a sleek, gold smartphone engineered for performance and proudly designed and built in the United States.”
Alright, so clearly this is a bald-face lie? How the hell can they claim this? What kind of made in america SOC are they using?
It depends on how they define “built.”
The Moto X was touted as being built in the US, it was assembled in Texas with parts made in Asia.
I believe the Made in USA Labeling Act passed 2021 would prevent following the Moto X approach of just final assembly, but I suppose it’s up to trump’s FTC to make the final call regardless, easy enough for them to issue an exception.
Specifically:
it is an unfair or deceptive act or practice within the meaning to label any product as Made in the United States unless the final assembly or processing of the product occurs in the United States, all significant processing that goes into the product occurs in the United States, and all or virtually all ingredients or components of the product are made and sourced in the United States.
They don’t need to issue an exception, they can just turn a blind eye. And considering Trump appointed the chair of the FTC with one of his loyalists (like every other branch) that seems likely.
Thing is, there’s going to be a lot of public attention on that “Made in the USA” claim, given how central it is to Trump’s domestic and foreign policy.
Sure, the FCC can turn a blind eye, but all it takes is for one worker at the assembly plant to call up a journalist. And let’s face, and journalist worth their salt is going to be hanging around every bar near that place. Even trying to screen specifically for MAGA friendly workers won’t help them much when one of those workers feels betrayed by how much of Trump’s product is actually coming from China.
My point is, there’s no good way to keep this under wraps. If they don’t actually build this thing in the US, word is going to get around, and it’s going to be seen as a total repudiation of Trump’s entire tariff strategy.
Trump team is already walking it back after they started taking preorders and a journalist found the model. They’re now claiming they meant to say it could eventually be made in America. It’s a $170 Chinese phone they’re marking up to $500
I can’t wait to see those people buy them and then complain about them.
