Sorry, I don't recall Trump making any type of campaign promise about banning Spanish signage or Spanish option phone services.

Care to provide a credible link to the contrary?

I have to admit this can be annoying.

Once in Wallmart, in mid-Atlantic US, I looked at a product, in a box on the shelf that I was interested in from the photo on the box. I could not find an English description anywhere on the box to tell me about the contents. It was all in Spanish. I just had to shake my head and remind myself what country I was in.

Ironically, everytime I've pressed 2 for Spanish because the line is shorter, it's always a Puerto Rican or US born Latino on the other end
.
Even more ironically, Puerto Ricans (native Spanish speakers) are US citizens so why the big deal about press 2 for Spanish?

Don't you dare criticize or question Trump! Or else you'll catch a knuckle-sandwich full of MAGA!
