In a recent interview, a spokesman for Trump Mobile was unable to answer a basic question about the American flag: how many stripes does it have? The incident has raised questions about the company's knowledge of patriotic symbols. The American flag features 13 stripes, representing the original colonies, but the spokesman hesitated before guessing incorrectly. Critics argue that the company, which markets itself as a patriotic brand, should have a better grasp of such fundamental facts. Trump Mobile has not yet commented on the gaffe.
