Whats happening with Trump’s campaign is exactly what I expected. As his image of being persecuted increases, so does the energy from his fans. The martyr cult intensifies. His legend grows.
People at X went hysterically ecstatic:
This was when Trump dropped his mugshot…

Some guy tattooed Trump on his arm:

As we read in AP, his campaign funds have erupted in growth:
For former President Donald Trump, a picture is worth… more than $7 million.
Trump’s campaign says he has raised $7.1 million since Thursday when he was booked at the Fulton County Jail in Georgia on charges that he illegally schemed to overturn the 2020 election in the state and became the first former president in U.S. history to ever have a mug shot taken.
Spokesman Steven Cheung said that, on Friday alone, the campaign brought in $4.18 million — its highest-grossing day to date.
The record haul underscores how Trump’s legal woes have been a fundraising boon for his campaign, even as his political operation has spent tens of millions on his defense. The mounting legal charges have also failed to dent Trump’s standing in the Republican presidential primary, with the former president now routinely beating his rivals by 30 to 50 points in polls.
