Trump is turning his mugshot into a badge of honour – but will voters see it that way? | Arwa Mahdawi

Inmate #P01135809 (also known as the ex-president) is using his mugshot as a marketing opportunity and seizing control of the narrative

Shamelessness can be a superpower: Donald Trump (or inmate #P01135809, as he is described in his booking record) has proved that time and time and again. He's shattered norms, flouted rules, shrugged off scandals and generally got away with doing whatever the hell he feels like. Never has anyone tested the idea that there's no such thing as bad publicity quite as much as the former president.
