    “Likely”…?

    C’mon…

    Maybe someone will put it in a box in 'Murica, so they can slap a "USA! USA! USA! Made with 100%’ Murican hate sticker on it

      It could be made somewhere else, maybe South Korea or Vietnam?

      It certainly won’t be in the US.

    Wow, sure would be nice if instead or normalizing this blatant Constitutional violation we continued to call it out for the illegal grift that it is.

      Like the watches? The crypto? The hotel rooms for officials? The $5M resident visa? It’s like they’re using the Emoluments Clause as a guide, and nobody cares anymore.

          Who is they? And what can we realistically do about it? 12 million of us were out marching in the streets but it’s not helping. I’m not trying to be pessimistic but I’m seriously at a loss.

            How about everyone who isn’t a huge piece of shit moves up to Canada, then we wait for the husk of America to instigate something (shouldn’t take long). At that point the rest of the world invades America and splits it up.

            It’s a perfect plan, everyone knows you need to break a few million eggs to make an omelet 🙂

              Hey, if you have a way for me to legitimately immigrate there, I’m all ears. But I have no family, can’t claim asylum, and would need a job to sponsor me otherwise.

    No, they said it’ll be made in the USA and they wouldn’t lie and we definitely have the infrastructure to build it and for sure we can do that and still hit a low price of $500 when premium brands like the iPhone 16e cost even more despite being manufactured in the best electronics manufacturing environment hub in the entire world, China.

    Why is everyone so critical of a lying grifter selling a bullshit product with a bullshit service that’s clearly full of lies? Everyone is being too hard on him. Remember when tariffs were imposed on everyone and now all iPhones are made in the USA and our industrial manufacturing bounced back to wear it was before the 1980s? Cause that happened.

    You can’t cure stupid. Stop trying.

    When these are out, I wouldn’t be surprised non-Apple, non-Samsung phone brands start getting outlawed.

      I think outlawed is less likely. Probably insanely taxed so only the wealthy can afford them. Everyone else needs to use the Palantir T1 mobile spying device or else

      Thanks for the information. I’m going to be shopping for a phone soon and I’ve been using Metro PCS. I guess I’ll be looking at other options.

    Does it come preloaded with TeleMessage and a direct connection to Kegseth? I need them bombing plans.

    Well yeah, that’s obviously what “designed and built in the US” means, no? /s
