Trump is reportedly still using his unsecured Android phone

President Donald Trump’s long-held Android phone is a security nightmare for a high-level politician, but according to a report from The New York Times, the newly inaugurated president is still using the device. In a profile of the president’s time so far in the White House, the Times reports that President Trump has held on to his “old, unsecured Android phone” — previously reported to be a Samsung device — despite some protests by his aides.

According to the Times, he used it to tweet Jan 24, suggesting he would “send in the Feds” to Chicago. (The tweet was apparently sent in response to a Bill O’Reilly segment.) Another Times report said Trump “traded in his Android phone for a secure, encrypted device approved by the Secret Service with a new number that few people possess,” but Trump has reportedly kept the Android phone to continue tweeting, and is even getting calls on it. In the Times profile, Trump did have kind words for the security of the White House phones, saying “words just explode in the air.” What he meant was that no one was listening in and recording his words.
