The call is coming from inside the house …the White House. The Trump Organization launches its own mobile phone service
There’s big news in the tech world, and it’s going to get people talking. The Trump family business is getting into the provision of phone services, including an actual handset – gold, of course – a mere snip at $499.

My friend just bought a Trump Mobile phone. It only allows you to text in CAPS, the payment has to be made out to cash, the spell check misspells every word, and Siri is Laura Loomer. pic.twitter.com/OJFRs6xUAl
