So you're suggesting that trump specifically chose this hilariously terrible mugshot? NGL I could believe it.

That's what he wanted, and the simping pig who took the photo thought.

It will be a great t-shirt print, especially if you make it in "Hope" style. This is what Trump and his personal ~~photographer~~ sheriff was trying to reach.
