Trump Organization announces mobile plan, $499 smartphone​

If you have a blindly loyal following with a cultish level of devotion to you what better way to capitalize on their adoration than selling them a phone plan?

I thought trump's crypto scheme couldn't get more grotesque as an example of profiteering on the position he holds but as usual I have under estimated his capacity for grifting.

He's made hundreds of millions, not including his billion-dollar crypto scams, from his various grifts.

And the flock crows about how he doesn't take a presidential salary. Incredible.

You have to hand it to him: He saw opportunity and took advantage of it.

I bet this news just wrecked Stalinburg's whole week.

I admire entrepreneurial spirit when I see it. This is cynical opportunism capitalizing on the elected office he holds and his cult following. Imagine how proudly the rubes will display their MAGAphones in circles where such things are viewed as a status symbol, and not falling victim to a grift.

Never mind phones, I'd like to know which Benedict Arnold Americans with oatmeal for brains is the first to believe Canadian police apparatuses? Whoever that person was, give them five lashings and charge them with treason because they are no ally of America I assure you.

Trump is a criminal and convicted felon; there’s no limit to Trump’s corruption and criminality – this grift is yet another example.

How is it a grift? He's selling a product. Is...Amazon grifters? Or Samsung? Are they grifters?

Id agree if he was just trying to solicit money for nothing, but when you're selling a product..it's not a grift..

The core Andriod OS is open source meaning there is no license requirement.

I thought, because its owned by google, you still had to have their permission

As boring dopey trolls go, I wish bug.80 would go. Away. What a boring useless clot he always is.

Core Android OS is open source and Google Owns it. They maintain control and compatibility.

It only has to be "licensed" to manufacturers if they want to use some of the proprietary elements that Google has put in.
