    Mugshot has apparently been released

    edit: nevermind seems it’s fake

    edit2: a much more realistic (same style, same tie) photo has been making the rounds on twitter. Note the missing logo however:

    edit3:

    official mugshot (same as in edit2), has been confirmed by CNN:

      Not sure about this, the lighting is very different from the ones taken of the guys who got booked yesterday.

        Yep, see my update, unless he changed his outfit, it seems to be fake

        Why in the fuck did no one tell him to smile? Didn’t he say he was “proud” to be arrested?

          Tough guy bravado is his whole brand and he’s pushing a narrative that he’s being persecuted. He’s using an angry face because he wants his cult to be angry too.

      The person who took this must realize the historic significance of this photo. What a crazy thing to be a part of.

      That’s an angry guy. Though to be fair a lot of the mugshots have them glaring up from under the brows (e.g. Eastman, Smith).

      I gotta admit it’s a bit cathartic to see him booked, mugshotted and fingerprinted like a criminal deserves.

      I can’t help but feel it looks like he was slapped by a banana or something, his face is slightly curved in some weird way

      They couldn’t make him stand up straight and look directly into the camera? At least have some photographic integrity…

      Also, what is going on with that strap of hair wrapped from the back of his head to right above his left ear?

        Usually they take multiple shots and select the ugliest one. That’s why people always look like trash in a mugshot

      This is really strange - I’m still not sure which is real, and I wonder where the one that isn’t came from.

      Edit: according to the news sites, the red tie version is correct. Where did the fake one come from?

      Lemmy doesn’t have the equivalent of reddit gold, but if any comment ever deserved it, it is this one. What a fucking ghoul.

          To clarify my original statement in case there was any confusion:

          The actual mugshot is not the same tie as the fake one (as was implied by the commenter I replied to)…

          It does appear to be the same tie that trump was wearing when getting off the plane at Hartsfield Jackson airport though.
