Trump Family's New Venture: 5G Service Hits the Market

The Trump family has expanded its business empire to include wireless services. This new venture, Trump Mobile, offers 5G service through a partnership with the three major U. S. carriers. The service is priced at $47. 45 per month, with no contracts or credit checks required. This move is part of a broader strategy to diversify the Trump Organization's portfolio, which already includes luxury hotels, golf clubs, and real estate properties. The new service, Trump Mobile, was announced by Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump. They highlighted that the company is based in the United States, emphasizing the "America First" movement. The service will operate as a Mobile Virtual Network Operator, or MVNO, using the infrastructure of major carriers like AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile USA. Other companies, such as Consumer Cellular and Mint Mobile, also operate under this model. Trump Mobile plans to release a new smartphone, the T1 Phone, in August. This device will be designed and built in the United States, featuring a 6. 8-inch touch-screen with a 120 Hz refresh rate. The phone will run on Google's Android operating system and include advanced security features like a fingerprint sensor and AI Face Unlock. The cost of the T1 Phone is set at $499. Customers can switch to Trump Mobile using their current phones. The company promises 24/7 customer service based in the United States, ensuring that customers speak to real people when they call. The "47 Plan" offers various benefits, including device protection, roadside assistance, international calling, and telehealth services. However, the company has a disclaimer stating it is not liable for service issues caused by third-party providers. The Trump Organization has a history of diversifying its investments. In 2024, the family reported over $600 million in income, with significant earnings from the World Liberty Financial cryptocurrency platform. The family also owns a substantial stake in Trump Media & Technology Group, which operates Truth Social. This new venture into wireless services is another step in their ongoing business expansion.
