Donald Trump’s family business is launching a new Trump-branded phone service.
The Trump Organization, which is run by his sons, said it planned to sell a gold-coloured, “built in the United States” smartphone for $499, along with mobile phone service for a monthly fee of $47.45 – a reference to their father serving as the country’s 47th and 45th president.
“Trump Mobile is going to change the game, we’re building on the movement to put America first, and we will deliver the highest levels of quality and service. Our company is based right here in the United States because we know it’s what our customers want and deserve,” said Donald Trump Jr, EVP of the Trump Organization.
Ethics watchdogs said the latest venture represented another means for potential corruption and conflicts of interest.
Trump has said he has put his business interests in a trust, which is managed by his children. The White House has maintained he acts on the interests of all Americans
