The Trump Organization — which is led by Donald Trump's sons
Eric Trump and
Donald Trump Jr. — announced on Monday, June 16, that the new T1 Mobile phone, which will set you back $499, is now available with nationwide coverage for just $47.45 a month.
"The 47 Plan" reportedly
features unlimited talk, text and 20GB of high-speed data and offers international calling, customer service, roadside assistance, device protection and access to 24/7 telehealth and prescription discounts.
"At Trump Mobile, we believe wireless service should reflect American values — simple, honest, and built for hardworking people. We're here to put freedom and fairness back in your hands with reliable coverage, no-nonsense pricing, and customer support that treats you like family. With TrumpSM Mobile, you don't just get a phone plan — you get service powered by American pride, freedom, and integrity," Trump Mobile claims.
They announced the phone in honor of the 10th anniversary of Donald Trump's first presidential campaign.

While Donald Trump left the Trump Organization in 2017 to pursue the presidency, the use of his name and likeness has been seen as unethical by critics. That's not the only criticism of his family's latest business venture…
"This Trump T1 phone being 'Made in the USA' sounds fishy," tech analyst Lance Ulanoff wrote on X. "There's just one company that builds phones in the U.S., Purism, and the specs don't match. Even if this is assembled somewhere in Trump Castle, the components are almost certainly sourced globally."

One X user pointed out how Donald Trump's supporters continue to invest in the Trump family brand: "Another Trump scam," they wrote. "This time, he's draining his gullible base of low-functioning cult members with a Trump mobile phone. Of course, it'll be fake gold."

Political commentator Brian Krassenstein noted how Donald Trump was critical of Apple and other American companies for manufacturing in China while his sons worked on creating Trump Mobile.
According to the Trump Organization, the mobile phone was "built in the United States."
"Trump is mad at Tim Cook and Apple for not destroying their company by moving everything to America, so he has decided to grift some more by selling phones via a new company, Trump Mobile, to his gullible followers," Krassenstein shared on social media.
