The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that the Trump family is licensing its name to a new mobile phone service, the latest in a string of ventures announced while Donald Trump is in the White House despite ethical concerns that the U.S. President is cashing in on his position. An Associated Press dispatch to The Globe says Eric Trump, the President's son running The Trump Organization in his absence, announced a new venture Monday called Trump Mobile. The plan is to sell phones that will be built in the U.S., and the phone service will maintain a call centre in the country as well. The new mobile phone and service, called T1 Mobile, follows several real estate deals for towers and resorts in the Middle East, including a golf development in Qatar. Mr. Trump has already used the federal government to reward his allies and punish his enemies. The Federal Communications Commission has launched investigations of media outlets Mr. Trump dislikes and, in some cases, is personally suing. The President criticized Apple last month because it planned to make iPhones in India. Besides the Trump phone, consumers can buy "Save America" coffee table books, Trump watches, and Trump-branded sneakers and fragrances.
