Trump Mobile, the telecommunications venture associated with former President Donald Trump, has filed a new trademark application for the phrase "The 47 Plan." The application, filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) on March 31, 2026, covers telecommunications services, including cellular phone services.

The filing suggests continued activity from the company, which launched in 2023 with promises of a proprietary "T1" smartphone. However, as of April 2026, the T1 Phone has not been released to the public. The company's previous public communications and website have largely focused on selling mobile service plans using existing cellular networks.

The trademark application for "The 47 Plan" appears to be a reference to a potential second term for Trump, who is the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee. The company's branding has consistently leveraged political themes tied to the former president.

Industry analysts note that while the trademark filing indicates the venture is maintaining its intellectual property portfolio, the long-delayed hardware product casts doubt on its original business model. Consumer interest in the service has primarily been driven by political affiliation rather than technological innovation.
