Another Highly Successful Criminal Con By Trump

[ChristisKing]

Never heard of it.

Me neither. I don't have the kind of money for it anyways though.

 

[MarathonMike]

Where`s that wall that Mexico was going to pay for?

It turns out that if you have a President who demands our border and immigration laws be enforced you don't need a wall. There are virtually ZERO crossings per day since Trump was re-elected. You're welcome.

 

[MarathonMike]

The never ending grift continues unabated.

You CLEARLY do not understand what "grift" is. But then you're a Democrat so that's not surprising.

 

[XponentialChaos]

Trump digital trading cards, Trump sneakers, Trump watches, Trump Bibles, Trump coins, Trump phones.

He could shit into paper bags, sell them for $39.99, and his loyal worshippers would be tripping over themselves to buy them.

Because cult.

 

[Dekster]

He should at least repay them in the Trump NFT digital trading cards or sumpin. Surely they are worth $100 (in Trump minds)

 

[Slade3200]

I didn't.....according to your article nobody has, since they aren't for sale yet.

None are made yet. They certainly have taken deposits/payments for them.

 

[struth]

Yes according to the link there have been deposits paid to get in line to get one when they are ready to sell

Apple does something similar with their update program, but cost a lot more, they just spread it out over your bill so it’s not all at once

An no refunds? Really?

Who does that?

21 hours ago — A gold-colored mobile phone bearing President Donald Trump's name was announced in June 2025. But customers may never see it.

“Trump Mobile does not guarantee that: the Device will be commercially released; regulatory approvals (including FCC authorization) will be obtained; carrier certification will be secured; production will commence or continue; or delivery will occur within any specific timeframe,” the terms and conditions read.

Post your credit card information, darlin’ and I’ll make sure you get a phone.

 

[ThisIsMe]

Just curious if anybody here purchased a gold Trump phone. If so, how do you feel about the recent change in terms of Service and possibility that they’ll never be made? No refunds. No surprise.

Trump Mobile quietly rewrote its fine print to say the gold Trump phone may never be made, a year after taking $100 deposits | Fortune

The terms and conditions said the preorder deposit gives people "a conditional opportunity" to buy the phone if the company makes it.

I’m sure there will be a class action lawsuit. I don’t think you can take money from people and then change the deal…unless…..

Trump is darth Vader!!!!

An no refunds? Really?

Who does that?

You do.

The never ending grift continues unabated.

Now THAT would be a grift, and the fist time democrats have used that term where it was actually correct..

 

[struth]

An no refunds? Really?

Who does that?

Hotels, cruises ships, air lines, car rentals

It’s not uncommon

Remember that wonderful, sleek, golden Trump Made In USA phone "designed with American values in mind"?

It was going to cost only $499 for the phone and $47.45 a month for service. 47.45, get it?

The catch was, you had to put $100 down to reserve your phone ahead of time. You would receive your phone by August 2025.

Well, it's been a year now...and no phones. And a lot of people are out their down payments.

590,000 suckers.

$59 million worth of down payments.

Apparently, Trump's idea of "American values" is to rip off suckers who deserve to be lied to, which I guess technically really is a longstanding American tradition.

The phone web site originally claimed the phone would be "MADE IN USA", but that disappeared and was replaced by "designed with American values", which appears to mean "MADE IN CHINA". Literally.

'Made in America' Claims Under Fire​

Early marketing for the T1 repeatedly emphasised that the phone would be built in the United States, a major selling point for many conservative supporters who pre-ordered the device. However, technology analysts quickly questioned whether such a product could realistically be manufactured domestically, given the lack of large-scale smartphone assembly infrastructure in the U.S.

Within weeks, Trump Mobile reportedly altered language on its website, replacing 'Made in the USA' references with softer wording that described the device as being 'designed with American values.'

Trump and his sons have raked in a cool $59 million off this particular scam.

That's Trump! Maybe they can make up the phone loss with their Trump coins.

I have an old TracFone I got at Walmart. About $95 a year. I think it has 3000 minutes on it. I seldom use it. I keep it in the car for emergencies. Other than that, I'm all email. I got no one to call and don't do texts. It is fine for me.

But, but, but, but Trump donated his $400,000 salary!

590,000 suckers.

I would bet a lot of those phone buyers were oligarchs here and abroad bribing Trump for access.

 

[citygator]

I really don’t feel sorry for the dipshits who paid $60M to Trump’s kids. Buyer beware. lol

 

[JackOfNoTrades]

You CLEARLY do not understand what "grift" is. But then you're a Democrat so that's not surprising.

Uhhh.....clearly, YOU don't understand what grift is. The same shit people pull with crypto offerings.....who's done that lately.
