Donald Trump Releases Mugshot NFTs Offered With A Chance To Win Piece Of Suit Worn During Photo Despite Previous One’s Failure

Donald Trump announced that he has released a new set of NFT trading cards that will feature his face on them, despite his previous ones losing 50% of their original value.

His newest NFTs are the “MugShot” edition, as he recently got his mugshot taken when he was arrested in Georgia on 13 charges due to his alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. OpenSea recorded that the cards were valued at around $453.97 on the morning of December 12. That same day, the cards dropped by $152.05, totaling around $301.92. 

Each card is available for purchase for $99, with supporters of the former president receiving a special offer. If they buy a minimum of 47 cards in one transaction, they can win one piece of the suit he wore during the mugshot. 

Trump released an announcement video where he shared the release of the NFTs.

“Purchase 47 digital cards, and we’ll mail you a beautiful trading card,” he said. “It is an authentic piece of the suit I wore when I took that now-famous mug shot, and it was a great suit, believe me, a really good suit. It’s all cut up, and you’re gonna get a piece of it. I’ll be autographing some of them.”

In one of his advertisements, he claims that this deal “is a moment in history” due to it being “the first ever mug shot of a United States President.”

Trump has been ridiculed for his cards, but despite this, he did sell out just after 12 hours of releasing the previous ones. Anyone who purchases a card can be entered into a sweepstakes where the winner can meet Trump at various events, such as a gala dinner at Mar-a-Lago. 

Trump recently raised eyebrows when he shared a post from a conservative lawyer who suggested ex-President Barack Obama could be indicted for “murder.” Trump has even compared himself to the late South African President Nelson Mandela.
