In this segment from World Business Now, we go inside the launch of Trump Mobile, a new telecommunications venture from the Trump family aiming to disrupt the U.S. market. With its $499 "T1" Android phone and a symbolically priced $47.45/month plan, the company is making a direct appeal to "economic patriots" with an "America First" message.
To break down the viability of this high-stakes launch, telecommunications analyst Ron Westfall of Hyperframe Research joins the program. He provides an in-depth assessment of the company's strategy as a mobile virtual network operator (MVNO), its reliance on competitors like AT&T and Verizon, and whether its political branding is a sustainable business model.
