Here's the way the scam works.

1. Market a Chinese made phone as made in the USA
2. Pay MAGA influencers to promote it.
3. Subscribe nitwit MAGA buyers to phone service plan
4. Sell the subscribers to a larger carrier
5. Get rich and laugh at the gullible morons

Ridiculous. Since when has Trump been mobile; he can barely get up the stairs now!

These will 100% be used to spy on Americans. I wouldn't allow one on those phone in my house, not that I'd invite anyone dumb enough to buy one in to begin with.

How do I know it's a scam besides the fact that it has Trump's name on it.
The infographic for the phone claims it has a "5000 mAh long life camera". That's a battery measure, nothing to do with the camera.

Anyone who signs up for this is a special kind of stupid.

Before the year is out every MAGA boy and girl will consider it his or her patriotic duty to have one.

Doe 174 insisted the phone had to offer one-touch reservations for Lolita Express.

Is this in response to the Obama phone?

Irony is lost on the Trumps.

About how those phones can't be built in the US by an outfit built on grift and sold for the advertised price? No, not to worry, it's okay, no, really.

"Eventually all the phones can be built in the United States of America."

Well, that settles it. You've got the word of a Trump.

I was reading some about this this morning.

It is, of course, a cheap phone made overseas that contracts with an existing carrier.

It's just a licensing scheme like Trump steaks, Trump vodka and every other gaudy thing that idiot has plastered his name on.

And, I'm betting, it will be as low class and low quality as the rest of them.
