This feels like Ryan Reynolds’ fault.

    Who is still buying all these crappy products? Is it all just bribes from foreign countries?

      There are at least 70 million weapons-grade mentally-ill people in the USA, radicalized and stupified with decades of psychological warfare.

      For the people buying it, the product itself doesn’t matter. It’s got Trump’s name on it and the money they spend goes to him, so he can “own the libs”

          Ooh, good point. Well, they’re both going to ship from the factory in nonworking condition, so that’ll be tough to tell.

    It amazes me the sane half (third?) of the US hasn’t overthrown this government yet. Or have they fled to North Korea where things are much better?

      It’s definitely going to be the Escobar Phone all over again. Anyone who accidentally receives one will get a foil-wrapped $150 Huawei handset with a preinstalled background image.

        Huawei? I think you’re giving them too much credit, haha. I’d guess it’s likely to be some unknown, no-name garbage, like you’d get from Wish or Ali-Express (or similar) for dirt cheap.

    There’s no way this isn’t an attempt to wiretap people

      The ‘smart’ phones in everybody’s pockets already are. Kind of, more or less.

      Well perhaps the intention wasn’t to wiretap everybody, but it has ended up that way.

    I think this is a great idea. Will make it easy to identify which people I should never speak to again.

    Trump really is trying to be hitler. He even invented his own “star of David” in the form of a phone.

    So people who have this phone can be ordered by an AI for an organized attack if he is not declared a king?

    Can’t wait to see the Truth Social bloatware. Also, do you think the applucatiin marketplace will be called the TrAPP Store?

      I think he’ll try bigger and simply try to nationalize or end licensing for the big 4.
