August 24, 2023, will go down as a historic day for America.
- Yesterday, Donald Trump was booked in Fulton County, Georgia, on charges that he (and others) committed multiple crimes in an attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 election in the Peach State.
- Trump was assigned an inmate number (P01135809).
- And his mug shot was taken (it’s everywhere by now).
Donald Trump has achieved something no other president — in the entire 247-year history of our country — was able to accomplish:
Having his mug shot taken as a criminal suspect.
Trump is so narcissistic that he may actually take some perverse pride in this ignominious distinction.
So we’re giving folks the opportunity to sign on to a quick — and, just to mix things up, a decidedly tongue-in-cheek — message for the loser of the 2020 election.*
To Donald Trump:
Well, we have to give credit where credit is due. You, sir, are truly one of a kind. There is nobody — literally nobody — like you in the entire history of America. Never before has someone who has served as President of the United States had the distinction of getting his mug shot taken as a criminal suspect. You really are special, Donald. Congratulations!
