Framed Copy Of Trump’s Mugshot Mounted In Oval Office Entryway – Staffer Brags: ‘New Office Art Just Dropped’
A copy of President Donald Trump’s mugshot from his arrest in Georgia on RICO and other charges was framed in gold and put on the wall in an entryway to the Oval Office.
Images of the mugshot in the background of photos and videos were seen on social media from Thursday. The image was visible on the wall of an office entrance as Trump gave Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi a tour Thursday afternoon.
Friday morning, Trump’s team confirmed and celebrated that a framed copy of a New York Post cover featuring the mugshot had been prominently placed for visitors to see.
White House Deputy Chief of Staff Dan Scavino posted an 8-second clip on his X page welcoming followers to tour the “beautiful” office for Valentine’s Day. Almost half of the video focused on the mugshot. Many of Trump’s most enthusiastic MAGA supporters celebrated the image as iconic in countless comments.
Scavino’s video was posted hours after Trump’s rapid response account posted about the gold-framed arrest photo and commented, “New office art just dropped.”
The Post reported on Trump’s new decor:
The Post’s front page showing President Trump’s Georgia mug shot was spotted Thursday on a wall just outside the Oval Office — indicating the 45th and 47th president isn’t embarrassed by the snap and may even view it as motivation as he begins his second term.
The framed newspaper appears to be in the office of Trump’s secretaries — located between the Oval Office and the Cabinet Room. The space often serves as an entryway for guests walking into the Oval.
The surprising decorating choice was revealed during Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit when the leaders were seated in front of the Oval Office’s fireplace — with the door behind Trump left open.
Trump was arrested, fingerprinted, and had his photo taken in Fulton County, Georgia, on August 23, 2024, after he was charged for allegedly conspiring to overthrow the 2020 election.
“What has taken place here is a travesty of justice,” he said after bonding out. “We did nothing wrong at all, and we have every single right to challenge an election we think is dishonest.”
