TL;DRDemocratic lawmakers have asked the FTC to investigate Trump Mobile over alleged false advertising.The request centers on the still-unshipped T1 Phone and Trump Mobile’s handling of preorders and marketing.Lawmakers say the case should be treated like any other consumer protection issue, regardless of politics.My colleague C. Scott Brown ordered the T1 Phone back in June. Seven months later, he still doesn’t have the Trump phone, a shipping date, or much clarity on what he actually paid a $100 deposit for. Now, that long-running mess may be about to draw federal scrutiny, after Democratic lawmakers asked the Federal Trade Commission to investigate Trump Mobile over alleged false advertising and deceptive practices. The request comes in a letter (h/t The Verge) from 11 Democratic lawmakers, led by Senators Elizabeth Warren and Robert Garcia. It focuses on Trump Mobile’s still-unreleased T1 Phone, announced more than six months ago and still accepting deposits despite not yet shipping anything to customers.
