A photograph can leave a strong impression. We saw the first real and scowling mug shot of Donald Trump, described in an article by Brian Bennett and Nik Popli at TIME on August 24, 2023 titled Here is Trump’s Mug Shot, the First Ever of a Former President, and in another article by Jonathan J. Cooper at APNews on August 25, 2023 titled One image, one face, one American moment: The Donald Trump mug shot.
Since April Trump’s campaign has been peddling a fake mugshot captioned “NOT GUILTY.”
The real one immediately reminded me of the title and my captioned image for this post. Would you buy a used car from this man? had been used with a picture of Richard Nixon by both the 1960 and 1968 Democratic presidential campaigns.
Way back on June 23, 2010 I had a post titled Would you buy a used car from these men?
UPDATE: September 4, 2023
There is an article by Tom Boggioni on September 2, 2023 at Raw Story titled Trump’s mugshot T-shirt cash grab could backfire and cost him millions: legal experts. It explains that the Fulton County Sheriff’s department likely owns the mugshot – and therefore could sue Trump for infringing their copyright.
