Finally, a phone that yells back.
What Happened
An article from The Verge describes the experience of holding a specific phone associated with former President Trump, likely detailing its design, features, and the symbolic weight attached to it, offering a unique perspective on a prominent public figure’s tech choices.
Our Take
Alright, folks, gather ’round, because we’ve got a headline here that just screams ‘modern art installation that went horribly, hilariously wrong.’ ‘I held the Trump phone’ – The Verge. I mean, what does that even mean? Is it a phone that only makes calls to Mar-a-Lago? Does it have a custom ringtone that’s just a recording of someone yelling ‘FAKE NEWS!’? Or does it, perhaps, spontaneously tweet at 3 AM? The possibilities are endless, and frankly, terrifying.
Imagine the scene: you’re at some tech expo, probably trying to get a free tote bag, and then someone hands you ‘the Trump phone.’ Is it covered in gold leaf? Does it come with a tiny, detachable MAGA hat accessory? Does it have a special ‘executive order’ button that just opens the calculator app? And the article itself must be a masterpiece. ‘My fingers tingled as I grasped the hallowed device. A faint echo of a rally speech seemed to emanate from its speakers.’ I bet it has infinite battery life, purely out of spite. You try to turn it off, and it just blares, ‘YOU’RE FIRED!’ and stays on. It’s less a phone and more a sentient, gilded brick of pure, unadulterated discourse.
And let’s be real, holding ‘the Trump phone’ sounds like one of those urban legends. ‘Don’t touch the Trump phone after midnight, or it’ll start live-streaming your internal monologue on Truth Social!’ It’s the tech equivalent of finding a cursed object in an antique store. You pick it up, and suddenly you have an uncontrollable urge to build a wall of app icons on your home screen. The Verge writer probably needed therapy after that. ‘I saw things… things no human should ever see… mostly just Twitter arguments from 2017.’ A true modern horror story, all thanks to a phone that probably runs on pure ambition and Diet Coke.
