- A new report from The Financial Times has revealed some concerning truths about Trump Mobile and its “Made in America” T1 Phone.
- The company behind Trump Mobile’s network operations is registered to a luxury apartment and has a shaky public presence.
- A Trump Mobile spokesperson told the publication that the T1 Phone is manufactured in Alabama, California, and Florida, but experts doubt these claims.
Trump Mobile came out of left field with a mobile network that promises telehealth and roadside perks and a “Proudly Made in America” smartphone. With bold claims of an Android device made entirely in the US and no clarity on who is really behind the venture, Trump Mobile raised eyebrows at launch, leading to more questions than answers. Now, a report from The Financial Times has attempted to answer some of those questions, adding more skepticism to the story, not just over whether Trump Mobile can deliver an American-made device, but over the credibility of the partner it has chosen to help do it.
