The internet has gone crazy for Donald Trump’s mugshot – 33 early takedowns
Former president Donald Trump has made history by becoming the first holder of that office to have his mugshot taken.
Along with alleged co-conspirators, he had been ordered by Judge Fani Willis to appear at Fulton County Jail before noon on Friday, where he was formally arrested and released on a $200,000 bail bond.
The order had given Trump plenty of content for Truth Social.

His arrest was much anticipated.

If anyone expected Trump to maintain a dignified silence, they were sorely mistaken.
President Trump about his arrest: “This is election interference. We have never seen anything like it in this country before”.

He spoke to Newsmax, claiming he hadn’t known the word ‘mugshot’ before.

In a move that has thrilled Elon Musk, he also returned to Twitter, presumably because Truth Social won’t sell him as much mugshot merch.
His arrest and mugshot must already be the most talked-about of all time – and here’s a fraction of what people are saying.
