Donald Trump has raised more than $7 million following the release of his Fulton County Jail mug shot.
Trump’s campaign said that he has raised $7.1 million since Thursday when he was booked at the Fulton County Jail, becoming the first former president in U.S. history ever to have a mug shot taken, WSBTV reported.
Trump was booked in jail after being accused of conspiring to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.
He faces 13 charges, including violating the Georgia RICO Act.
“This is a very sad day for America that should never happen,” Trump told Channel 2 Action News after he was booked and released from jail. “The election was a rigged election, a stolen election, and I should have every right to do that.”
Spokesman Steven Cheung told the Associated Press that by Friday, the campaign brought in $4.18 million. The campaign also released a line of shirts, posters, coffee mugs, and more all with the mug shot printed on the front.
“This mug shot represents to me just a pivotal moment in history,” Candace Marshall, owner of Main Street Retro, told Doudna. “I was literally laying in the bed, pulled out my laptop, whipped up a couple of designs, posted a cute little TikTok, and here we are.”
