Trump uses personal phone for all

Just before the US presidential election at the end of last year

Donald Trump learned a serious piece

of information. And that is - his personal mobile phone is at risk of attack by Chinese hackers. Iranian hackers had previously hacked the emails of his election campaign team. Although Trump did not seem too worried because he dislikes writing.

But on October 25, US officials said that hackers had penetrated the US telecommunications system, putting the confidential conversations of many politicians, including Trump and J.D. Vance, at risk.

And upon hearing this news,

some of his team threw away their phones. Some deleted their old numbers, some started communicating on secure apps like Signal. But Trump is completely indifferent.

Sources close to him claim that he has been warned for years, but he has stuck to his old iPhone. He does not want to be without it to communicate with friends and colleagues.

The importance of Donald Trump's personal mobile phone has been felt since he took office for his second term as president. An adviser said that the morning after taking office, Trump was saying, "You won't believe it, twenty world leaders called me! It's like they're all trying to win my heart!"

The phone he carries is now President Trump's only means of direct communication with the outside world. Lawmakers, relatives, friends, businessmen, celebrities, and even journalists call him directly. Because everyone knows that he is the one who picks up the phone, without an assistant. Trump even answers calls from unknown numbers.

For example, one morning in New

Jersey, Trump received a call and asked, "Who's calling?" because anyone could have been on the other end of the phone.

Trump loves talking on the phone, and is also interested in answering calls from strangers. When he gets a call from an unknown number, it's like a surprise to him! It's like the curiosity of what color ball will come out when you put a coin in a gumball machine!

"No one is trying to change this habit anymore. Everyone gave up a long time ago," said one adviser, adding that more than a hundred people have Trump's phone number.

Several aides said Trump has two separate phones. One aide said he saw Trump using three phones. They believe one of them is just for social media.

Although he has changed his number from time to time, for example, the number he used when he was a presidential candidate in 2016 was deactivated during his first term.

Another aide said that additional security

measures have been added to Trump's phone. However, since the attack by Chinese hackers was carried out directly on the telecom company's back-end servers, it is not clear how effective those measures are. The White House, however, did not want to comment on the president's security measures.
