Feels like the Escobar phone
It's definitely going to be the Escobar Phone all over again. Anyone who accidentally receives one will get a foil-wrapped $150 Huawei handset with a preinstalled background image.

“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?
-
Bets its not made in America? lol
Absolutely gonna be "made in America" in that the application of the cheap Chinese gold decal to the cheap Chinese handset will be done in America.

Depends on which one breaks faster
Ooh, good point. Well, they're both going to ship from the factory in nonworking condition, so that'll be tough to tell.

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.

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.
And then all the history books will be “Trump History” so that everyone can finally learn the history as Trump sees it

This a is the funniest shit I’ve seen all year. Holy hell, how is this not the onion?!

Surprised it doesn’t have a swastika on it
Trump like a mob boss keeps the "heat" away from him as much as possible. He'll let his cult army march around with their swastikas, and if asked "knows nothing about it". And he'll turn around and instruct the same people he doesn't know anything about to "stand back and stand by".

But it has "5000mAh long life camera". Seems good to me.

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.

Trump likes to pitch crap to gullible fools.

I mean, my phone doesn't have that.

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

It’s available to preorder now with a $100 deposit
and might actually not even be real because he's a con man

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.

The article is pretty junk. What's the plan offer?

I'll bet every dollar I have. Literally no one makes phones in America. It would take a giant company like Apple or Google billions of dollars and a decade of construction and education/recruiting, then they'd have to sell them for a competitive price out of the kindness of their hearts, because there's no financial motivation.

No discussion in the article about fraud or conflict of interest.

Huawei? I think you're giving them too much credit, haha. I'd guess it's likely to be some unknown, no-name garbage, like you'd get from Wish or Ali-Express (or similar) for dirt cheap.
