What’s a mug shot? Did you hear Trump say that after he was arrested at the Fulton County Jail in Georgia on Thursday?
It was so perfect as to how he denies knowing anything when it’s to his favor. I mean, what adult does not know what a mug shot is?? Trump knows. In fact, he quickly took the mug shot and then put it on merchandise (t-shirts and such) for his MAGA loyalists to buy. He knows they will continue to give him money. He has them in the palm of his hand. Remember Trump saying he could shoot someone on 5th Avenue and get away with it? Yep.
The t-shirts with the mug shot on it also says “never surrender” even though he just did. He had to surrender himself to the officials of the Justice Dept. In Fulton County, Georgia. Oh, and he had to surrender up in New York last month too when he was arrested there. He surrendered so he did not have to be hunted down and handcuffed.
I’m glad Trump finally had a mug shot taken because all along I have wanted him to be treated like anyone else who has been indicted by our country’s District Attorneys. Up til Thursday he hadn’t had a picture taken because supposedly everyone knows what he looks like so it seemed unnecessary. But, whenever any person surrenders (or is brought in in handcuffs) the normal process is to fingerprint them, and to take a mug shot. It then goes into the file system. It’s meant to be visual part of an arrest. It is meant to be humbling.
Ha! Humbling! Trump instead used the mug shot to continue his grifting ways.
The man continues to use his followers without any remorse. I wish they would realize it.
I wonder what next he will do. Because he will – he will continue to act like a victim. He will blame everyone else but himself. He will continue to lie if it makes him look better. He will do whatever he needs to do, hoping getting other people’s money might save him from the US and Georgia Dept. Of Justice. It doesn’t work that way.
He is the first American president with a mug shot..
I guess he knows what a mug shot is now.
