    Former President Donald Trump was booked into the Fulton County, Georgia, jail on August 24, 2023, on charges of criminal solicitation to commit election fraud and conspiracy to commit election fraud. The mugshot of Trump that was released by the sheriff's office quickly went viral, and has since been used by people on both sides of the political spectrum for their own purposes. Some people have used the mugshot to mock Trump and his supporters. For example, one person tweeted a photoshopped version of the mugshot with the caption "Wanted: Donald J. Trump for treason." Others have used the mugshot to criticize the criminal justice system, arguing that Trump is being treated differently than other defendants because of his wealth and status. Still others have used the mugshot to promote their own causes. For example, one group is selling T-shirts with the mugshot on it, with the proceeds going to a fund to support democracy. Others have used the mugshot to raise awareness of the dangers of election fraud. The mugshot has also been used by foreign media outlets to report on Trump's legal troubles. For example, the BBC ran a story with the headline "Donald Trump: Former US president's mugshot released." The story noted that the mugshot was "a stark reminder of the former president's legal troubles." Overall, the mugshot has been met with a mixed reaction. Some people have used it to mock Trump and his supporters, while others have used it to criticize the criminal justice system or to promote their own causes. The mugshot has also been used by foreign media outlets to report on Trump's legal troubles. Here are some specific examples of how people are using Trump's mugshot for their own purposes:
