Customers were sold patriotism, privacy, and “Made in the USA” style messaging.

You thought $WLFI, $MELANIA, $TRUMP, the tax scandals, the lies, the bankruptcies, the court rulings, and the endless corruption were the whole Trump grift?

You thought $WLFI, $MELANIA, $TRUMP, the tax scandals, the lies, the bankruptcies, the court rulings, and the endless corruption were the whole Trump grift?

Not even close.

@DonaldJTrumpJr and @EricTrump personally unveiled Trump Mobile in June 2025 and put the family name on a $499 gold T1 phone, a $47.45 monthly plan, and a $100 deposit scheme, while the actual business sat behind a licensing structure rather than a real Trump run hardware operation.

Customers were sold patriotism, privacy, and “Made in the USA” style messaging.

Then the story started collapsing. The manufacturing language was quietly watered down, the design changed, the specs changed, the launch dates slipped, and lawmakers said no T1 phones had been delivered at all.

That is the Trump family formula.

Put the lie in front of the cameras.
Put the Trump name on the box.
Sell the fantasy first.
Take the money first.
Rewrite the claims later.
Hide behind licensing language once scrutiny begins.

Unverified rumor: about 590,000 to 600,000 deposits, which would equal about $59 million to $60 million if true.

Even now, the phone still has no clear public release date while the site continues marketing the product and plan.

That is why lawmakers pushed the FTC to examine whether consumers were being misled.

Call it whatever you want. To many people, it looks exactly like another Trump family scam painted gold.
