Donald Trump might make new campaign merch soon — featuring his Georgia mugshot. But New York doesn't make mugshots public like Georgia does, so the Trump campaign had to get creative. Immediately following that first New York indictment, the Trump campaign started advertising a new T-shirt featuring a clearly fake mugshot of the former President emblazoned with the words "NOT GUILTY." (AP Photo/Alex Brandon)Now that he has the public mugshot he wanted, Trump's team might swap out the fake mugshot on his campaign merch for the real one. On Thursday, Trump rolled out a fundraising plea entirely based on the Georgia indictment and his arrest.

Washington CNN —Former President Donald Trump will surrender on Thursday to be booked on more than a dozen charges stemming from his efforts to reverse Georgia’s 2020 election results, the fourth time this year the former president has faced criminal charges. Trump is expected to travel from his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club to Atlanta to turn himself in at the notorious Fulton County jail. And earlier this month, Trump was placed under arrest in Washington, DC, and arraigned on charges brought by Smith in his investigation into attempts to overturn the 2020 election. Trump falsely claimed victory after the 2020 election, and then tried to overturn the results in Georgia and other states. In a series of phone calls, he pressured Georgia election officials to help his efforts, including Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger.

The former president dominates the field, with his indictments in four separate criminal cases boosting his popularity among Republican voters, and has said there is little political upside for him to debate his rivals. The political outsider has stoked grassroots chatter as a potential alternative to Trump and garnered 7% in the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll. She has about 5% support among Republican voters in the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll.

The GOP front-runner is expected to surrender, potentially for fingerprinting and a mug shot, on Thursday or Friday, a senior law enforcement source told CNN. His legal quagmire is likely to yet again dominate the GOP race, drowning out rivals who have so far largely failed to exploit Trump’s four indictments. It’s a tactic that appears to be working among GOP primary voters given his wide polling lead thus far. Ron DeSantis – announced that, as expected, he’d skip the debate in Milwaukee.

But he doesn't think Trump will win the general election and should drop out of the presidential race. A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll found a majority of Republicans wouldn't vote for Trump if he's in prison. And in July, a federal grand jury filed a superseding indictment against Trump and co-conspirators, alleging they coordinated to delete security camera footage from Mar-a-Lago to prevent a grand jury from accessing it. According to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll, nearly half of Republicans said they wouldn't vote for Trump if convicted of a felony. And if he faces prison time, 52% of Republicans said they wouldn't vote for him, either.

The campaign trail will run as much through various court rooms as through the fabled rituals of an American election year. Furthermore, the events surrounding Trump’s denial of his 2020 election defeat have been in the public domain for years. But Trump’s team has already warned it may need up to three-and-a-half years to prepare his defense. His forceful opening gambit on the date suggests a strategy to ensure that any compromise date the judge arrives at will still be relatively early in 2024. The question of a trial date will likely wait for a subsequent hearing.

Carlos De Oliveira, the property manager of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida, was accused of trying to delete security camera footage and lying to investigators. Prosecutors first charged Trump and his aide Walt Nauta in June in the case, alleging Trump haphazardly stored hundreds of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago home and enlisted staff to hide them from investigators. De Oliveira and Nauta also moved boxes of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago to conceal them from the FBI and Trump's lawyers, the indictment said. Trump has pleaded not guilty, saying the cases against him are part of a politically motivated "witch hunt."

It looks as though Donald Trump will be indicted — again. Federal prosecutors have informed him that he’s a target of their investigation into the Jan. 6 riot and efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election. This would be Trump’s third criminal indictment and counting. So why does it feel so anticlimactic? Why is there no sense of finality in the air?

Trump spoke Tuesday with both House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and House GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, who leads the House GOP’s messaging efforts, according to multiple sources familiar with the conversation. Firebrand GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia has previously called for similar action. Despite Trump facing the potential of a third criminal indictment, several House Republicans made clear they would support the former president no matter what. “Donald Trump’s the leader of our party, and Donald Trump is going to be Joe Biden in 2024 for a second time.”Nehls accused the “far left” of having a “severe crush on this guy.”“They have a crush on Donald Trump.

Trump himself is not expected to attend to the hearing, but Nauta – who is a bodyman to the former president – may attend, sources told CNN. In addition to the trial date, Trump and Nauta’s defense attorneys have already clashed with the Justice Department on timing of even initial procedural steps in the case. Tuesday’s hearing is aimed at discussing the schedule for those issues to be briefed and are usually “uneventful” affairs, Gonzalez said. “In sum, neither the amount of classified discovery in this case nor the timetable for its production is a reason for an indefinite continuance of the trial date,” the prosecutors said.

The U.S. Constitution guarantees criminal defendants the right to a speedy trial, and defendants in federal cases are allowed to have a trial start as soon as 70 days from the time they are indicted. Smith's pledge for a speedy trial makes sense because he doesn't want to interfere with the election process, said defense attorney Mark Zaid. The reality is the Trump team will be controlling much of the timing of the litigation." Espionage Act cases like Trump's cases are especially complex because some of the key evidence presented during a public trial is classified.
