Семья Трампа изменила маркировку 'Сделано в США' для нового телефона

"...before a giant American flag at its headquarters earlier this month..."

"...the pitch was simple and succinct, packed with pure patriotism..."

"...The Trumps are apparently having second thoughts...."

"...How about 'proudly American'?..."

"...so-called T-1 gold-toned phones with an American flag etched on the back..."

"...Elsewhere on the site, other vague terms are now being used..."

"...boasting an 'American-Proud Design' and 'brought to life right here in the U.S.A.'..."

"...several firms have been sued over misusing the term..."

"...Neither did an outside public relations firm handling the Trumps’ mobile phone business, including a request to confirm a statement made to another media outlet...."

"...The language change on the website was first reported by the news site The Verge...."

"...An expert on cell phone technology, IDC analyst Francisco Jeronimo, said he’s not surprised the Trump family has dropped the 'Made in the USA' label because it’s nearly impossible to build one here given the higher cost and lack of infrastructure to do so...."

"...But, of course, you can claim to do it...."

"...Jeronimo said. 'If it’s a question of assembling components and targeting small volumes, I suppose it’s somehow possible. You can always get the components from China and assemble them by hand somewhere.'..."

"...adding, 'It’s about time we bring products back to our great country.'..."

"...The Trump family has flown the American flag before with Trump-branded products of suspicious origin, including its 'God Bless the USA' Bibles, which an Associated Press investigation last year showed were printed in China...."

"...The Trump phone is part of a bigger family mobile business plan designed to tap into MAGA enthusiasm for the president...."

"...The two sons running the business, Eric and Don Jr., announced earlier this month that they would offer mobile phone plans for $47.45 a month, a reference to their father’s status as the 45th and 47th president...."

"...The call center, they said, will be in the U.S., too...."

"...Eric Trump said on Fox News. 'We’re doing it out of St. Louis, Missouri.'..."

"...The new service has been blasted by government ethics experts for a conflict of interest, given that President Donald Trump oversees the Federal Communications Commission that regulates the business and is investigating phone service companies that are now Trump Mobile rivals...."

"...Trump has also threatened to punish cell phone maker Apple, now a direct competitor, threatening to slap 25% tariffs on devices because of its plans to make most of its U.S. iPhones in India...."
