        The awful Trump branding might be laser engraved in America.

        Everything else is guaranteed made in Taiwan or china. The US was just barely getting its semiconductor industry back under Biden.

        If these things ever ship, I can’t wait for someone to crack one open just to find a bunch of Chinese parts.

    Maybe it’s a Samsung phone and a “Made in USA” sticker, shipped in as components and stuck together in the USA, thus fulfilling both “designed” and “made” in USA even though there are some foreign-made components (2). Then onshore those components bit by bit until the process is complete.

      He ripped off the font, and some are saying it’s a slightly tweaked REVVL 7 Pro 5G, which is a midrange Chinese phone T-Mobile already sells for $170 with a T on the back. Trump’s T is a bit bigger. Would be fun to see T-Mobile take legal action…
