Donald Trump is already attempting to cash in on his historic mug shot by urging supporters to fork out $34 for a t-shirt featuring his booking photo and the slogan “never surrender” — despite having just surrendered to authorities.
Less than two hours after his arrest on Thursday, the Trump campaign sent out an email plugging the new merchandise.
Mr Trump was booked and released from the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta, Georgia after surrendering on 13 charges of attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.
His booking record listed the former president as 6’3” and 215 pounds - raising eyebrows across social media. The stats provoked a comment from adult film star, Stormy Daniels, whose alleged affair with Mr Trump has him facing multiple charges in New York over falsifying business records linked to alleged hush money payments ahead of the 2016 election.
In the Atlanta case, the last two co-defendants of the 18 charged alongside the former president, Trevian Kutti and Stephen Lee, turned themselves in on Friday morning, just an hour before the deadline imposed by District Attorney Fani Willis.
