After the mug shot, the marketing.
First out of the gate, not surprisingly, was the Trump campaign itself, which overnight splashed the picture on a variety of merch.
Hours later, the Never Trumpers, otherwise known as the Lincoln Project, had also reproduced the mug shot on a — pun alert — shot glass, along with the acronym “F.A.F.O.” and the exhortation to “Raise a glass to justice.” Not long after that, Green Day, the punk band, offered a T-shirt on Instagram that had swapped out the portraits on the cover of its 1997 “Nimrod” album with the mug shot.
Between the two poles is a veritable bonanza of stuff on sites like Redbubble and Etsy, where if you search “Trump mug shot,” more than a dozen pages of products come up, pro-Trump and anti-Trump alike.
That while we may have lost the skill of constructive dialogue, we all still speak T-shirt?
