Somehow this feels reminiscent of the Escobar phone. https://www.pcmag.com/news/please-stop-buying-the-foldable-p...
I bet 100 Trump coin it'll no longer promise it ever gets made, at all, at some point. It's too costly to go past the vaporware stage. Maybe they'll do a kickstarter style thing to milk the rubes, but that'll be the end of it.
A Nokia candybar with one of those mall kiosk faceplates, Krylon Gold spraypaint the whole thing.
So it’ll be some shit phone that you could find at Walmart for 50 bucks, covered in gold plastic, and the chumps will say they bought it to support him.
I'm shocked... SHOCKED I say!
