After a nine-month delay, the Trump Mobile “T1” smartphone was sent out this week to pre-order customers and some members of the media. There was just a slight problem.
The gold-plated $499 phone is no longer marketed as “Made in the USA,” and the American flag design on the back of the handset appears to have 11 stripes instead of 13.
