The Greek myth of Medusa takes many forms, but the most common is this: Medusa was a woman who, having angered the goddess Athena, was made into a monster. Athena punished Medusa by turning her hair into a writhing tangle of serpents, and then by ensuring that anyone who looked into Medusa’s eyes would be turned to stone. In shaping their story of a gaze made violent, the creators of that early democracy were prescient about the man who has tried to destroy ours. Donald Trump’s head may be covered in spray rather than snakes, but he is a Medusa all the same, reconfigured for the age of mass media: Once you look at him, your fate is already sealed.
Last night, the 45th president became inmate number P01135809 of Georgia’s Fulton County Jail. Trump had his mug shot taken. It was shared with the public. We looked, of course. And he was prepared for our gaze: hair, makeup, angle, pose. In the portrait—it is a portrait, in the end—Trump glares directly into the camera. He seethes. He glowers. He turns in a studied performance. Photos like this are typically exercises in enforced humility. Trump’s is a display of ongoing power. He treats his mug shot as our menace.

His booking photo was supposed to be an exercise in humility? Really?...REALLY?! That’s not how this works.
I use that line out loud, and that image internally, almost daily.
It certainly seems like it, but they’re frothing at the mouth about the results they are not seeing.
Xi told them we would simply kowtow to whatever they, the supreme authorities of the USA, demanded. Believe what you’re told.
We’re simply not capitulating on schedule, and it’s infuriating the commies.
I wonder how they will react January 20 2025 when this billboard picture adorns the Whitehouse as pedo joe is led away with his crime family in handcuffs?
For the same reason that Fani Willis did not indicte herself.

Honey, the only thing you control is YOUR narrative. We were put here to horse shoe your narrative so you end up eating it. Trump or bust!

Yes the Atlantic is so disappointed because Trump refused to be humiliated or humbled at the overwhelming awesomeness of the criminal dimocrat fascists. According to the Atlantic he’s already guilty and must obey.
It backfired on them big time, and this idiot writer can’t stand it.
Give us names of good attorneys on Great One!
There is no satisfying these people. I really don’t know what The Atlantic wants. That’s what happens when you always win. Victory gets boring and doesn’t satisfy.
But I do tire of people like that Salty Cracker guy talking about this big MAGA victory. What victory? This isn’t victory. Trump held his head high. But he still got kicked in the teeth by a Fulton County pipsqueak and probable future Supreme Court justice.
Its only starting to dawn on a tiny handful of Leftists that this was not a wise move.
Just wait.
Their shock and horror will be immensely satisfying.
Indeed and they are the first to use the word equality aka bait for a vote.
It’s a good mugshot.
I want a T-shirt.
