Trump still uses personal phone – media

Despite security warnings, the US president maintains the device as his primary link to the outside world, The Atlantic has reported citing aides

US President Donald Trump continues to rely on his personal cellphone, despite repeated warnings from aides and security experts about foreign surveillance risks, The Atlantic reported on Monday.

The phone remains Trump’s main link to the outside world, connecting him with friends, family, lawmakers, corporate leaders, celebrities, world leaders, and journalists, sources close to the president told the outlet. He also often answers calls from unknown numbers, reportedly viewing them as opportunities for spontaneous conversations, they claim.

“He likes to call people. He likes to be called,” one adviser reportedly said. Another noted that “probably a ton” of people have Trump’s personal number, while a third estimated the figure at “well over 100.”
