In the lead-up to Election Day, Donald Trump was informed that Chinese hackers had compromised U.S. telecommunications, enabling eavesdropping on his calls. Despite this alarming breach, which followed prior Iranian hacks, Trump remained unfazed and continued to use his personal iPhone. Campaign team members attempted to enhance security by switching to secure communication methods. Trump’s phone remained important to him, allowing quick access to friends, colleagues, and global leaders, as demonstrated by his reactions post-election.
Every time Trump takes or makes calls on his personal cellphone, he risks Chinese hackers listening in, which could compromise U.S. intelligence.
Trump's reliance on a personal iPhone poses significant risks due to longstanding warnings from intelligence experts about being a top target for espionage.
