Trump Mobile's T1 Phone Still Undelivered Months After Launch

Is this a legitimate business facing production delays, or a systematic operation exploiting customer loyalty for nonexistent products?

The Spin

Anti-Trump narrative

This is just another Trump family grift operation. Customer service representatives only provide contradictory explanations for delays, and the company has quietly removed key promises from its website. This is the worst kind of consumer fraud, exploiting political loyalty to extract payments for products that may never materialize.

Pro-Trump narrative

This isn't a grift, it's just taking time for Trump to put out a product worthy of his supporters' tastes. Obviously, the government shutdown, clogs in the supply line and other external factors have led to a delay that should come to an end in time for Christmas. The Trump phone will be online soon.
