Anyone else think it’s odd that the camera lenses aren’t evenly spaced out?

No, I assume they have different uses and there’s a reason why one is separated from the others.

It’s not like his people built the phone. They just took an existing cheap phone (probably with a shit ton of spyware on it), put a tacky gilded shell on it, and quintupled the price.

As discussed elsewhere on the board, there are 13 stripes, but the last one is made out of the “TRUMP MOBILE” words. Which does make it look like it’s not even part of the flag logo, and makes it look like it’s just words under the flag.

They didn’t miscount the stripes, they just made a really stupid design decision. One of many on that piece of shit I’m sure.

I’m a nerd, I would actually quite like one to stress test and see how performant it actually is.

I’m not really into mobile dev, but I know enough…

No doubt someone else in the USA will beat me to it, so I am eager to read the reports. I expect poor performance, shitty batteries, and possibly - if they could be bothered - a really bad variety of custom Android.

I await the inevitable exploits of an OS made for idiots.

I agree. They meant “Trump Mobile” to be the bottom stripe, but botched it. It would work if they had a dark stripe with “Trump Mobile” in white (okay, gold, it’s Trump after all) on the dark stripe.

Also, is it just me, or is anybody else seeing “Trump Mobile” and thinking, “Quick, Robin! To the Batmobile!”?

Yep.

Had they done the words in “inverse video” that’d have worked a LOT better. But it would have to have made the words about 1/2-3/4" as tall as they are for the containing dark stripe to be the correct height. Can’t have dear leader’s name too small.

🤔

That makes me wonder… When is he going to ask his friend Elon to come up with a design for the… _wait for it_…

_Trump-moBEEL_!

It will be a limousine, of course, gold with retro white wall tires and a big wide moonroof so you can stand up in the car and moon passersby.

But they put the tacky shell (made in China) on the cheap phone (made in China) in the US of A. So that makes all the difference.

Sadly one suspects they have a lot of people advising _'let’s not even mention the reward-checks for the Jan 6 cop-beaters, because that whole topic could lose us the young-male vote_’…or something along those lines.

Playing defense and playing counterattack take two very different mindsets & skillsets.

The Ds have all the moral righteousness but none of the hardball political skills needed to triumph over dedicated evil.

How does one apply for money from the slush fund? I think we should all apply, maybe claim mental damages from having a president who’s a dickweed. If they get fifty million applications, make then go through the effort of reviewing them all.

Or they blanket deny everything unless Trump is separately notified that it’s in his best interest to include a particular person.

And they can’t get together and stay together such that all the oars are pulling in the same direction.

What they lack most at the moment is LEADERSHIP! An inspiring, charismatic LEADER.  
😡

I’m not seeing anyone sticking his head above the crowd. And yes, I believe it has to be a straight, white, man–IOW someone electable. (Please, Kamala, don’t run again!)

Yeah, I’m calling bullshit. The problem with Democrats is Democrats. Blame leadership or the candidates or whatever, but when push came to shove, the actual voters always found some reason to flake and always found somebody else to blame for why they flaked.

The saying was true a decade ago (and more) and it remains true now: Democrats fall in love, Republicans fall in line
