Trump’s mugshot is the stuff of Warhol: Instantly iconic Americana that will be reproduced and repurposed for decades to come.

First U.S. president to submit to a mugshot? Be careful what you wish for.

To laugh at this mugshot is to misunderstand it. Georgia has just crystallized Trump’s campaign message with a copyright-free image that will win him the nomination.
Fani Willis, Georgia’s district attorney, surely felt quite self-satisfied these past two weeks. We all saw her smug press conference announcing Trump’s indictment.
But the mugshot — wholly unnecessary, avoided in Trump’s three other indictments, meant to humiliate and degrade — has opened up a brand new revenue stream and re-energized Trump’s already fanatical base.
As has Fulton County’s explanation?

LOL - Fanni obviously didn’t know who she was dealing with in Trump.

But this was before the heralded mugshot.
