"Newell Brands stated, 'We don't have any information about the conversation described,' in response to Trump's claims about customizing Sharpie pens for presidential use."
"Trump recounted, 'I called the guy, I said, I'd like to use your pen, but I can't have a great thing with a big S on it saying Sharpie as I'm signing a $1 trillion airplane contract.'"
"According to Trump, the company head offered to upgrade the pens by painting them black, adding a gold White House emblem, and even printing Trump's signature on them."
Newell Brands, the parent company of Sharpie, refuted President Trump's account of a phone call regarding customized pens. Trump claimed he requested a more polished version of the Sharpie for signing official documents, stating he wanted to avoid the standard branding. He recounted a conversation with the company head about upgrading the pens, including painting them black and adding a gold emblem. However, Newell Brands stated they had no information about the described conversation, emphasizing their pride in being a trusted brand.
