Former President Donald Trump cracked up Logan Paul, on whose “Impaulsive” podcast he will appear on June 13, by giving him and co-host Mike Majlak t-shirts emblazoned with his mugshot.
Underneath the photo of Trump’s mugshot includes the caption, “Never Surrender.”
“This is for you guys,” Trump said as he presented two hats emblazoned with his name along with the t-shirts. “It sells for a lot of money, this thing,” Trump added.
“No way!” Paul smiled. Then he realized what was on the shirts, blurting out, “Is this your mug shot? No way. Gangsta!”
“This is what we’re reduced to,” Trump joked.
“No way. No way,” Paul repeated, laughing.
“Should we put them on now?” Majlak asked. “That’s amazing.”
“And it sells,” Trump said, pointing out other celebrities who had taken mug shots. “Elvis had one; Frank Sinatra had one.”
“This shirt?” Majlak quipped.
“We’ve eclipsed ‘em. A long time ago we eclipsed ‘em,” Trump joked.

Trump’s mug shot was taken in late August 2023 after a Fulton County, Georgia, grand jury indicted him on charges of election racketeering and related offenses and issued an arrest warrant. Trump turned himself in on the evening of August 24 at the Fulton County Jail, where he was booked, given an inmate number, and photographed before he was released.

The same night, Trump posted the photograph on X with the caption, “MUG SHOT – AUGUST 24, 2023, ELECTION INTERFERENCE, NEVER SURRENDER!” That was Trump’s first post on X since his account was reinstated by Elon Musk in November 2022.
Also that night, the Trump campaign began selling t-shirts, mugs, and other merchandise with his mugshot. By August 26, the campaign said it had raised $7.1 million since the photo was released.
Earlier this month, a Georgia appeals court stopped the Georgia case against Trump, putting it on hold until a decision has been reached as to whether Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis should be disqualified.
