"As usual, we're still waiting for a response. In the meantime, I finally got a reply from a company exec. After months - months - of emailing various official Trump Mobile accounts and press addresses, last week someone answered back. Don Hendrickson, a member of the company's executive team, finally replied to one of my emails and offered to talk, but he's ignored me ever since."
"Hendrickson's share of that experience is the trickiest to pin down. During the launch event, he was described as having worked in the mobile industry since the days of pagers, but his actual resume is hard to find. I can only find one LinkedIn profile that might be his - a mostly blank listing for a "wireless professional" - and no other public social media profiles or websites."
Trump Mobile is developing a more powerful T1 Ultra as a second Trump phone. Repeated inquiries about the phone's whereabouts have received no substantive response from official Trump Mobile channels. Don Hendrickson, identified as a company executive, briefly replied to one email and then stopped responding. Hendrickson appeared at a June 2025 launch with Don Jr. and Eric Trump and was presented alongside two other executives with purportedly extensive industry experience. Public records for Hendrickson are limited: a minimal LinkedIn listing for a "wireless professional", no other clear social profiles, conflicting title listings, and a possible past role at Liberty Mobile Wireless.
