MAGAs Are Fuming After Email Confirms They Will Never Get Their $500 Trump Phones or Deposits Back

[creeksneakers2]

Nearly 600,000 Trump supporters paid £74 ($100) each towards a gold smartphone that, nearly a year on, does not exist.

An estimated 590,000 buyers paid a £74 ($100) deposit to secure one, collectively handing the venture roughly £43.7 million ($59 million). As of May 2026, not a single confirmed customer has received the device. Now, a fresh wave of anger is spreading across MAGA forums after buyers received communication making clear that their money is, for all practical purposes, gone.

1. Suckers

[Mad_Machine76]

2. PT Barnum's words

continue to ring true!

[the nelm]

30. Absotutely. Man, are these are these people slow.

Slow as in will they ever bloody learn? How many times will they allow themselves to be scammed by this carnival barker?

[OMGWTF]

32. I am really tired of being locked in a room with the slow learners.

[popsdenver]

36. One would think that by now

Their Butts would be getting sore..............

[GoodRaisin]

3. They will keep voting for Republicans.

Magats have very short memories when it comes to their boy or their party.

[hlthe2b]

4. Ordinarily I am outraged by such fraud--but this case I can only quote (disputed) PT Barnum:

"There's a sucker born every minute" and given these are those who have every reason to know better and not some poor ill-informed suckers, I have no such outrage. That they will be unlikely to prevail in a class-action lawsuit is pretty obvious too and FTC is not about to do anything at all.

[ThoughtCriminal]

5. Have they figured out a way to blame Biden yet?

It doesn't have to make any sense, they will buy that too.

[moonscape]

26. They'll get to him. They're

on Obama at the moment en route to Hillary.

[fujiyamasan]

31. Thanks Obama!

[Lovie777]

6. shithole ripped them off and pocketed the money.......

who knew.👽

[sheshe2]

7. That's awful!

Those poor people.

8. Hard not to.

[sheshe2]

15. Indeed! 🤪

Suckers and losers.

[Cheezoholic]

9. While I'm sure their are some angry, I still believe most of that 50-60 million in "deposits" were from fake actors

representing entities that were/are currying favors from His Lard Assship. I've seen this story echoed everywhere yet I haven't seen much proof of a MASS of MAGAts that are pissed. I've seen some people complain on right wing message boards and FB where I anonymously lurk, but I've yet to see anything that justifies the headline. That further makes me believe this was a scam to get a cool 50 million into his pocket by people wanting favors. Wouldn't be hard to "buy" 100 phones and then wink, especially if you're a company/corp.

[Pinback]

35. Excellent point

and a likely scenario IMHO.

With this crook and his crime family, there is just one scam after another. Bribery and grift without end.

[Johnny2X2X]

10. He scammed people out of $50M

Any other president and this would be one if the most massive scandals in history.

[Figarosmom]

11. 👍

LOCK HIM and HIS KIDS UP!

any Joe Schmo that did this would be locked up for fraud

[Zelda_Orchid]

12. Mwaah! Mwaah! Mwaaaaaah!

[SleeplessinSoCal]

13. This is what FOX News should report. it pertains to their viewers.

But will they? Not likely.

[Wounded Bear]

14. Gee, isn't fraud a misdemeanor?

And, hey, I though mail fraud was a felony.

Guess I'm outta touch.

[SCantiGOP]

38. Neither one matters

When the Supremes have said you have complete immunity.

[Wounded Bear]

47. Not sure selling phones is in his job description...nt

[xuplate]

16. Just like the Nazi's and their Volkswagen scam.

[BeneteauBum]

17. What will be offered next?

So much MAGAt money spent on cheap merchandise……..and they will spend yet even more. What can I say?

Peace ☮️

[Submariner]

18. Well, we know where the next MAGA assassin will be coming from

Its no wonder that they eat their own, they screw each other so much and with no shame whatsoever.

[BattleRow]

21. Screwing each other so much..no branches on their family tree.

But they can always find a limb for lynching...figuratively speaking,ofcourse.....

[Vinca]

19. If there's a way to bilk the rubes, one Trump or another will think of it.

Wonder if any of them refinanced their homes to "invest" in the Trump bitcoin. Foreclosures on the horizon.

[GiqueCee]

20. Whaddya bet...

... that a horrifying number of these inbred, web-footed pinheads in red hats and gold sneakers are STILL making excuses for him? They'd carve their own eyes out with a rusty spoon before they'd ever admit they were wrong to support that evil sonofabitch. He played them like a cheap fiddle.

[maveric]

22. Thank you sir. May I have another?

Never learn.

[Ford_Prefect]

23. After 10 years of his official scams they cannot tell the difference. It's a mental disorder resulting in a cult.

[Bristlecone]

24. I'm somewhat ashamed, but I enjoy their getting fleeced.

A fool and his money….

[usonian]

25. If they had invested in this COLLECTOR'S ITEM, they could afford a real phone

[calimary]

27. THAT would almost be worth having,

except he’d already have pocketed the purchase price. Not sending ANY of my money his way.

[kacekwl]

49. It also runs

Backwards.

[peggysue2]

28. Fools

Are soon parted from their money.

A reasonable question would be:

What were they thinking?

But then cult devotees do not think. They simply follow their leader into the abyss.

[Laffy Kat]

29. I'm sorry to laugh, but what the hell did they think would happen?

Sadly, the same MAGAs will probably fall for the next grift, too.

[Gaytano70]

33. Couldn't happen to a better bunch of magat rubes!

[Mz Pip]

34. Did they get their Trump sneskers?

That was a while ago he was hawking those. The phone would have topped off the outfit perfectly. Shoes, hat and phone with a Trump flag flying on the truck. Good times.

[Scrivener7]

37. Lol!

If they're so stupid that they didn't see that coming, they shouldn't be allowed to vote.

[Martin68]

39. LOL, will they never learn.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

40. Let's see: the many scams that Trump has run

Trump University
Fake Trump crypto coin
Trump watches
2017 Inaugural Committee defraud
Trump Organization Financial Fraud: for providing false property valuations to lenders and tax authorities.
Trump Foundation Settlement: using the charity's funds for political and personal benefit, such as buying campaign portraits and a $10,000 portrait of himself.

Then the hundreds or maybe thousands of contractors that did work for Trump and purposefully never got paid.

[elliesmandt]

41. Tell me...

The republicans should adopt as their anthem the Fleetwood Mac song "Tell Me Lies."

[lostnfound]

42. They may be fuming, but this is the LEAST valuable thing he has stolen from them, in a long list

Their self-respect
Their country’s future
Their country’s dignity
The respect of some of their friends and family
The CPFB’s protection of them from corporate fraud
Their country’s reputation in the world
Health research that was underway, or that never will be
Affordable health care
Doctor access in rural areas
Hospital access especially in rural areas
Cheap oil
Cheaper solar and wind energy
Actual democracy
A somewhat secure retirement environment
Affordable college
Cutting edge, world-leading critical industries
Friendly relations with the other countries in the americas
Clarity of mind
Cleaner air
Cleaner water
Protection of national parks and federal lands
Natural disaster relief
Potentially years off their lives and/or the lives of loved ones

[blue-wave]

43. Aww, the poor babies

Should I wipe the snot drizzle from their noses? Not!

They should have realized that they were making a donation to gold plate another toilet seat for the Donald. Suck it up buttercups!

[AllyCat]

44. I love this for them!

[Pisces]

45. Stupid is as stupid does!

[LetMyPeopleVote]

46. There will be litigation on the refundability of the deposits

This form does not expressly provide that the deposit is non-refundable. There may be other contractual provisions that may provide that the refunds are non-refundable but normally the courts will construe such provisions very narrowly.. There will be litigation and trump should be forced to refund these deposits This will be fun to watch

I know that trump is taking the position that the deposits are nonrefundable but there will be litigation on this issue

[kacekwl]

48. These fucking idiots would throw down

another deposit tomorrow for the next POS he's selling. With a smile and a recurring monthly charge.
