Trump Mugshot Merch Available From Campaign Nearly Instantly

The Trump campaign began selling merchandise featuring former President Donald Trump’s mugshot almost immediately after his booking photo was snapped Thursday.

Trump was arrested and booked at the Fulton County Jail Thursday evening on charges that he conspired to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.

Within hours, the Trump campaign’s website was selling t-shirts and long-sleeved shirts for $34, mugs for $25, beer Koozies for $15, and bumper stickers for $12.

“NEVER SURRENDER!” reads the caption on the mugshot products.

The merch is sold by Trump Save America, a joint fundraising committee for Donald J. Trump for President 2024 and Save America.

Other vendors had shops with mugshot merch up and running almost instantly as well.

Trump’s booking photo made instant history as it is the first mugshot ever taken of a former or current U.S. president. The snap is also the first time Trump has had a mugshot taken, although he was previously arrested in a separate criminal case.

The former president faces charges in four separate criminal cases.

In Georgia, Trump faces 13 counts including racketeering, fraud, making false statements, and asking a public official to violate their oath of office. Friday was the deadline for Trump and the 18 others charged in the Georgia case to turn themselves in to police.

Trump was released on $200,000 bond, a term he agreed to earlier this week. He also agreed to restrictions on his ability to post on social media about co-defendants or witnesses as a term of his release.

Following his arrest Thursday, Trump posted on X, formerly known as Twitter, for the first time in over two years.

Trump posted his mugshot as well as a link to his campaign fundraising site.

“Today, at the notoriously violent jail in Fulton County, Georgia, I was ARRESTED despite having committed NO CRIME,” reads a message from Trump on the fundraising site’s landing page. “But today, I walked into the lion’s den with one simple message on behalf of our entire movement: I WILL NEVER SURRENDER OUR MISSION TO SAVE AMERICA.”

“If you are doing poorly due to the sinister people in control of our country right now, don’t even think about donating!” the message says, adding an appeal for supporters to donate if they are able.

A few hours after his arrest, Trump slammed the Georgia authorities for bringing his co-defendants into the case, saying their “lives are destroyed” by the criminal charges.

“Those people that have been so unfairly dragged into this, these are high-quality people who don’t even know why they were brought in,” Trump said on Newsmax. “Those people have to be released. They have to be released from this horrible thing that they’re going through.”

On Wednesday, Trump skipped the first Republican primary debate hosted by Fox News, instead opting for a long-form interview with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson, which was released on X at the same time as the debate.

As of Friday, Trump has a 41-point lead for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination, according to the RealClearPolitics average of polls.

Country Singer Elle King Addresses Her New Appearance: ‘Not On Any Weight Loss Medication’

Country singer Elle King addressed a big change in her appearance, clarifying for fans that it’s not the result of weight loss surgery or popular medications like Ozempic.

The 34-year-old said at her heaviest, she weighed 284 pounds following the birth of her son Lucky in September 2021. 

“Almost 2 years postpartum! I am making this post to share my journey from 284 lbs at 5’3 from pregnancy 2021 – now 2023. It doesn’t happen overnight,” King wrote in an Instagram post. “It didn’t even happen in a year for me. In fact, it’s an ongoing still working towards ever-changing goals kinda thing.”

“So why am I sharing this? I fell into a very deep depression during my pregnancy,” she continued. “I also didn’t even realize how intense postpartum depression is and was until I very slowly began to crawl out. I felt trapped in my body. I couldn’t even sing.”

“So I started slow. Metabolic workouts. Light cardio to warm up my body, my lungs, my voice, and my spirit. I am a creature of habit, so I changed my f***ing habits. Every few weeks I feel my body getting stronger. I add more workouts, I exercise with @pauldominic_ who is basically a body builder,” King continued in the post, which included photos of her working out.

“But if you don’t have one of those then YOU have to be your own champion. Find music you like! Ride a bike! Go for a swim! I thought I wanted to lose weight, but it’s so much more. My BRAIN functions better on the days I move my body.”

King confirmed she’s not on medication. “Some days I count stretch marks. Some days I hug myself and say thank you to my body. Today is a kind day. I’ve been tiny, I’ve been huge, BUT RIGHT NOW IM HEALTHY,” she wrote. “I can’t believe that I even have to say this, but no, I am not on any weight loss medication. I have PCOS and am pre-diabetic. My diabetic grandfather died when I was 10 years old. I watched him prick his finger and give himself shots.”

“I do not judge anyone who is trying to live a healthier life,” she concluded. “I can only share MY OWN JOURNEY! I just hope to live a long, wonderful, healthy life where I can drink a lot, eat fish, laugh as much as I can, and die happy.”
