$100 bucks a pop for nothing. 590,000 MAGAts still waiting.
Trump, Eric & Junior promised their patriotic âMade in the USAâ cell phones would be delivered in Aug to the MAGA rubes. Still no phones, and the âMade in USAâ claim had been scrubbed from their website. Scam #1,284. www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

At the rollout, the public was told to expect everything to be in place by the end of the year. As November nears its end, what happened? NBC News reported:
NBC News placed an order for a T1 phone in August, paying the $100 deposit for the purposes of tracking the $499 phones development. After confirming with the credit card company that the transaction was not fraudulent, NBC News received a confirmation email verifying the order. But the company provided no proactive updates after the order. NBC News made five separate phone calls to the Trump Mobile customer support line between September and November.
In October, NBC News was told to expect a Nov. 13 ship date. When that date came and went, an operator at the call center said to expect delivery in the beginning of December. (The same operator blamed delays on the government shutdown, which didnt appear to make any sense.)
Making matters worse, the Trump Mobile website has gone through a series of edits, including the elimination of release dates and Made in the USA assurances.

(7,491 posts)hey, the dictator wannabe who extorts payoffs from colleges under threat of defunding based upon bs antisemitism accusations,
who's pocketing donor money,
Data shows Trump is 'funneling' donor money into his bank account - Alternet
and who has various government agencies hard at work, sharing, gathering, and compiling the personal information of every American citizen,
wants us to use his phone. Right.

Federal pardons won't protect them.
