Samsung Galaxy Note 7 and Donald Trump: Train Wreck of a Campaign
Apologies up front for bringing politics here, but over the past 24 hours or so, my Twitter timeline is filled with Samsung Galaxy Note 7 and Donald Trump, both for all the bad reasons. Donald Trump is caught (yet again) for his misogynist talks and crude sex talk, while yet another “replaced” Samsung Galaxy Note 7 has caught fire in the US.
