On August 24, former US president Donald Trump was taken into custody in a Georgia jail on suspicion of conspiracy and racketeering after he allegedly attempted to rig the 2020 election results in the state's southern region.
According to papers released by the sheriff's office, the 77-year-old Trump was booked in Atlanta's Fulton County Jail on 13 charges during a quick session that lasted less than 30 minutes.
His recent mug shot was made public on Thursday night. In the mug shot, an expressionless Donald Trump glared at the camera. His inmate number was P01135809, according to documents from the Fulton County Jail.
The moment the picture was formally posted on various social media sites, it went viral. Internet users reacted to the image on those platforms, particularly X (formerly known as Twitter).
They visited the comment section of the post from Palmer Report and left humorous comments. X user @jklfromheaven joked and said the inmate number has "a nice ring to it."

Former US President Donald Trump made history on Thursday when he was detained in the Fulton County jail. Following his arrest, he was taken into custody and was photographed by jail officials. This was the first time a former US president's mugshot had been taken.
In this image, Trump glares intently into the camera as he stands in front of a dull gray background. He has straight shoulders and a head angled slightly in the camera's direction. He wore a blue suit, a white shirt, and a red tie. Above his right shoulder, the sheriff's logo has been digitally placed.

"The former president of the United States has an inmate number."
