Dark Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 The photo of Donald Trump scowling defiantly into the camera in the Fulton County Sheriff's office will go down in history. The mugshot, the first of a former US president, came after his fourth arrest in five months. Mr Trump posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, for the first time since January 2021 to share the address of his website and the mugshot with an all-capital letters caption: "Election interference. Never surrender!" Within hours, his campaign website was selling mugshot-branded mugs, t-shirts and drink coolers. John Bolton, who served as national security advisor under Mr Trump, said the image was likely carefully staged. "I think it's intended to be a sign of intimidation against the prosecutors and the judges," he told CNN. "He could've smiled. He could've looked benign," Mr Bolton added. "Instead he looks like a thug." https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-66612433 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
