It’s a Wingtech REVVL 7 Pro 5G
So a $130 budget phone that they are selling for 500? Seems about right.
Well, with the tariffs and all, it adds up...
You do understand that it's gold colored? That's $300 in added value right there
If you combine it with the sneakers and watch it buys you an extra 3 months before being taken to the gulags. Unless you’re brown, then it’s only an extra 3 minutes.
I think paying a little too a billionaire for no necessary reason makes this American though
Funnel the wealth to billionaires
He’s not a crook. And you will realize that as soon as his tax audit is over so he can release his taxes.
That phone looks very different, especially the cameras.
Yeah it's the Wingtech Revvl 7 5g, not the pro. The pro has 4 cameras, the non pro has the distinctive 3 cams.
Edit: in typical Chinese fashion it seems there are a lot of variants of this phone. It's probably the kind of company that if you order 1000 or so, they can create the exact combination of parts you want.
But the Trump phone is definitely one of these variants.
Steve Hou of Bloomberg LP, found the same phone on Amazon. Trump is selling his phone for $499, but it can be purchased on Amazon for $169. It can also be purchased in gold
Everything is a fucking grift
Which means you can buy the $169 phone spray paint it with gold paint and sell it to a MAGA fan for $1,000 when the demand goes up.
It can also be purchased in gold
Fuck the spray paint you just need to write "trump" on the back with a crayon and they'll throw money at you.
Just RUMP is good enough. Save 20% of production costs.
brb...doing this...
It's a scam.
Well yeah, the Trump family is involved.
And even is it wasn't, it's still in breach of the Emoluments Clause.
The Trump business' press release about the phone purports that the device, The T1, is "designed and built in the United States." The report noted that Apple has a similarly ambiguous claim, "Designed by Apple in California." In Apple's case, however, it has a disclaimer saying that the phones are assembled in India or China.
How is that "similarly ambiguous"? Neither phone was built in the US; only the Trump phone creators lied and said it was.
Two clear claims are similar levels of ambiguous; not very.
You can't even make a freaking grill scrubber without importing parts from China, even if you were trying NOT to import from China. Apple couldn't even make their phone in the US because the most trivial thing was insanely expensive compared to overseas. Yes, the tiny little screws. I've got beach front property in Arizona to sell to these jackasses that believe this moron solved US manufacturing problems in just 6 months.
Reference to Grill Scrubber: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3ZTGwcHQfLY
To be fair, there is a nonzero chance that there will be beachfront property in AZ in the next century now so...
I got beach front before it was beach front! I love it!
I can't wait to accuse trump supporters of being antifa for not having a trump phone.
So, full of bullshit just like the rest of the Trump dynasty. Got it.
Saw that coming a mile away.
GUYS! HELP! MY EYES! I ROLLED THEM TOO HARD! I'M BLIND!
Oh no! The best antidote is remembering he’s demented and close to death!
And that he probably cried over the low parade turn out. I had to change my underwear after that joyful thought.
If only false advertising laws had any teeth.

After all immigrants have been forced out, all social safety nets removed, and child labour laws repealed; after the resulting widespread poverty and famine. When Americans have no choice but to work in sweatshops for a dollar a day, then US manufacturing will finally be competitive enough for trump merch to be made in the US.
What an asshole
A real gaper.
of course not
So, no more tariffs?
Tariff is included in the price, you pay the phone 200$ + 300$ that goes to gov/trump pockets
They'll add an exception for gold phones or something.
Mind blown.
Hilarious!
Given the price and description, I was always assuming they were going to import a cheap Chinese android phone from a no-name manufacturer and then do the gold paint here and call it Made in the USA, like how other companies do one final assembly step here in order to make that claim.
Can't wait for Dbrand to drop a dupe skin for the iPhone, that would be diabolical.
Stolen info from trump supporters in 3…2…1
These shit stains can’t even sell hats that are made in the USA let alone a phone.
An American made smart phone would be garish, run hot and flake out in record time.
Because of course it fucking isn't. What a clown show.
If they ieep grifting their own people this hard, surely there will come a time when their own voters are penniless and thus (in American democracy) powerless, right?
They'll still vote for him.
Ahhh, so it will have manufacturers and orange rumps surveillance code in it.
2 for 1
Orange would have been the better color
