In 2025, Donald Jr. and Eric Trump launched "Trump Mobile," a
smartphone designed and built entirely in America. Costumers
could pre-order the phone by putting down a $100 deposit for the
$499 phone. Since, the product dropped its "American made"
promise, the phone did not ship on schedule, and the terms have
redefined the $100 deposits as a "conditional opportunity if
Trump Mobile later elects, in its sole discretion, to offer the
Device for sale.” The company wants to use T-Mobile's network
which is subject to federal government regulations, a conflict of
interest. Trump complains that the Supreme Court is not loyal to
him over tariffs. Trump posts AI images about the Iran war and
his political rivals. Tension between Trump and Netanyahu.
