Trump Mobile Phone Promises Gold, Delivers Waiting Game Instead
KEY POINTS
- â˘Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump launched Trump Mobile on June 16, 2025, marking 10 years since their father's first presidential campaign.
- â˘The T1 smartphone, gold-colored and resembling an iPhone, was scheduled for release in August but missed that date and a fallback October deadline.
- â˘The â47 Planâ wireless service costs $47.45 monthly, referencing Trump as the 45th and 'potentially' 47th president, and offers telehealth and roadside assistance.
- â˘Despite months of delay and silent social media, Trump Mobile still accepts pre-orders with a $100 deposit and $399 balance upon shipment.
On June 16, Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump announced Trump Mobile to celebrate 10 years since Daddy's first presidential run, debuting the T1 gold-colored smartphoneâan iPhone look-alike with a presidential ego. Originally slated for August release at a princely $499 with a $100 pre-order, the launch got ghosted into October, then abyssal 'later this year.' Claims of 'Made in the USA' were swiftly downgraded to 'brought to life by American hands,' probably to avoid ignition by truth patrol. The $47.45 monthly '47 Plan' nods to the 45th AND âpotentiallyâ 47th commander-in-chiefâa plan offering roadside rescue, telehealth, and unlimited texting, presumably so you can complain endlessly about the delays without running out of minutes. Meanwhile, their X (ahem, Twitter) feed has been tumbling dead since August 27, ignoring Business Insider and anyone still holding a $100 pre-order receipt.

Trump Mobile's promise of a gold iPhone turned into a masterclass on how to delay a product indefinitely while charging upfront pre-orders like itâs a Kickstarter for 'presidential charm.'
Trump Mobile: proof that you can launch a phone, miss three deadlines, and still get paid $100 upfront without a single shipment.
