In an apparent bid to make inroads into the liberal-dominated information ecosystem, US President Trump’s sons Eric and Don jr on Monday launched “Trump Mobile” a mobile phone service with a subscription plan called the “47 Plan”. Alluding to Trump being the 45th and 47th president, the $47.45 per month plan includes unlimited service and free international calling to over 100 countries, with no contracts or credit checks required. The service emphasises US-based customer support available 24/7 and compatibility with most existing phones. Trump Mobile also plans to release in Aug 2025 a $499 Android phone made in America, to challenge Apple and other phone makers whose foreign production has irked the MAGA supremo. The venture, announced by Trump’s sons at Trump Tower in New York, positions itself as a conservative alternative to major telecom providers, focusing on “American pride” and reliability.
