No discussion in the article about fraud or conflict of interest.
Why should there be? Everything this administration does is fraudulent and has conflict of interest. It's ok because they say it's okay. You are thinking more like when things were democratic perhaps?

Who is still buying all these crappy products? Is it all just bribes from foreign countries?
Gullible conservative simps

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.

I mean, my phone doesn't have that.
Hearing you can download as much RAM as you need on this phone too. CHECKMATE LIBS

That design looks like patent infringement to me

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! -
I mean, my phone doesn't have that.
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.

You're fucking shitting me. I refuse to believe that's reality and you can't convince me otherwise.

Why mention it? We all know it, and for his supporters it's a feature, not a bug.

There's no way this isn't an attempt to wiretap people

Please God let some bug at the carrier level incessantly provision these T1s to a max of 1.5mbps because that would be so fucking funny.

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.

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
-
The article is pretty junk. What's the plan offer?
Looks like standard MVNO offerings (mint, boost, cricket, fi). $47+tax for talk, text, and data. Though it does look more expensive than others.

Can't wait to read from which part of China this "American built" phone is made

It’s stunning how these people can say this stupid shit with a straight face.

Can't wait to see the Truth Social bloatware. Also, do you think the applucatiin marketplace will be called the TrAPP Store?

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.

Yeah lol the mic is definitely always connected to Palantir on this bad boy

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.
