lol, ‘American Proud’ design… not even ‘designed in America’
Trump will say anything associated with him is ‘American Proud’ no matter where it was made,
It's almost like he's a lying narcissist or something. He'll say whatever will get him closer to his goals with absolutely zero intent on keeping his word, and by the time even 20% of the country has caught on, he's already several grifts and/or scandals downstream. If anybody does manage to confront him on it and demand an explanation, he just lies and changes the subject.
Promises made, promises delivered.
I truly don't understand how he isn't running out of rubes. He's been very publicly exposed as the con man he is for over a decade now. His marks keep getting fucked over and are complaining about it. How are so many people still falling for his bullshit?

Yeah absolutely zero chance anyone is gonna make a modern smartphone with all parts from a single country. Maybe in China but definitely nowhere else.
There is one but it's extremely expensive and extremely rudementary

It's easier to scam someone than convince them they've been scammed.

The claim was never suppposed to stand up to scrutiny. The biggest rubes have already bought in and won't read any of the publications critical of the initial marketing. The biggest rubes have already reserved a device and will think it was manufactured stateside.

I am skeptical it is only made of US components, if nothing else due to the sheer number of components. This video (note this video is an ad for a product) is about the difficulties making something far simpler out of entirely US components, and they straight up couldn't do it even when trying - suppliers outright lied about the country of origin in some cases, and some parts were extremely difficult to source in the US. This is a grill brush with like 10 components and not a smart phone.

It's fair to be skeptical but that guy is a YouTuber and this is an electronics company and they actually manufacture the electronics themselves. There's no one involved to lie to them. If the Destin built his own manufacturing facility there would be no question.
Edit: Looking more closely at it, their CPU is manufactured in South Korea.

TACO
Trump applies Chinese outsourcing.

There has to be a crafty lawyer that can sue the shit out of them.
That only works under the rule of law.

Trump: "I'm gonna do [blank]."
Me: "He's gonna do [blank]."
Redcaps: "He's not gonna do [blank], idiot!"
Trump: "We have done [blank] and are committed to accelerating the [blank] policy."
Redcaps: "omg, we had no idea that he would actually do [blank]! This is horrible!
Me: "Okay, so are you gonna denounce that at all? Maybe think twice about whether you support a thing that he tells you he's gonna do going forward?"
Redcaps: "What? Why? It's actually good and smart that he did [blank], and you're an idiot loser for still thinking about that. Also everything in my life is bad and getting worse, and it's the fault of the party that currently wields no power. The party currently in power which is famous for staunchly opposing change will be the key to changing the trajectory of my life."
How are these people not developing an ounce of critical thinking skill? I didn't think you needed to be a genius to display basic pattern recognition. A dog can do that effortlessly.

It’s almost like he’s not very honest.

Republicans are the biggest suckers there are. There's a reason as soon as the jig is up grifters pivot to conservative talking points.
