"Trump's Mugshot: A Symbol of America's Anger and Fundraising Success"

Donald Trump's election campaign has raised $7.1 million following the release of his police mugshot in Georgia. The funds largely come from merchandise sales featuring his scowling face. Trump faces multiple indictments, including charges related to his false claims of election fraud and the Capitol riots. He denies all charges and argues they are politically motivated. The attention surrounding his legal troubles has energized his supporters, resulting in nearly $20 million in donations in three weeks. Trump's campaign has been actively soliciting support and he recently posted on social media for the first time since January 2021, sharing his mugshot and rallying cry.
