Trump’s 2023 mugshot spotted hanging in ornate frame near Oval Office

A copy of the front page of the New York Post featuring a mugshot of President Donald Trump was found hanging from a gorgeous gold frame near the White House oval office at a press conference this week.

The photo was taken at the Fulton County Jail in Georgia after Trump turned himself on August 24, 2023, and appeared on newspaper front pages around the world the following day.

Trump told Fox News Digital At the time, Georgia officials “claimed” his mug shots during the process in prison, and doing so “is not a comfortable feeling.

Trump says that the Georgia charges will come in “dark times” for us, vowing to fix it by winning.

A photo of the new artwork shared by Trump's special assistant and communications advisor Margo Martin has been reviewed on social media.

White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scabino later posted a video to X, which provided context regarding the frame placement.

“Happy Valentine's Day,” Scabino wrote in an accompanying post. “Welcome to the beautiful oval office @whitehouse. ”

This mug shot looks very similar to the president's official White House portrait, which debuted in January.

The unprecedented accusations stem from accusations that Trump tried to overturn Georgia's 2020 election results.

At the time of the indictment, Trump's campaign said the incident was “a continuing pathetic attempt by Biden crime families and their weaponized Justice Department.”

Trump says taking mugshot “isn't a comfortable feeling, he's not doing anything wrong in particular.”
