Excellent. May his orange jumpsuit soon follow.

I'm just sad that federal mugshots aren't made public.

[–] Perdendosi@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (3 children)

No mugshot "because the president is recognizable." I guess that's a thing, though I've never heard of it being used before.

The president certainly is recognizable ... thing is, he's a dead ringer for Joe Biden.

[–] andrew@radiation.party 4 points 1 year ago

The resemblance between the current president and Joe Biden is uncanny, to say the least.

[–] AndrewOz@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

He is shaped like William Taft.

[–] wildbus8979@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago

I thought he looked more like JFK Jr 🤔

[–] KilgoreTrout@beehaw.org 1 points 1 year ago

Presidents keep their title so he’s still “President Trump”. I hope his prison guards will respect that.

[–] Powderhorn@beehaw.org 3 points 1 year ago

No worries! I'd just like to keep the referring to Trump as "the president" to his spin team. They never call him "the former president" for a host of reasons, but that doesn't mean reasonable people should follow suit.

Also they aren't gonna handcuff him because they don't want him to look guilty or something like that.

His skin is already orange, don't you think his wardrobe should match it?

It’s active camo. Just implemented incorrectly.
