No mugshot "because the president is recognizable" EDIT: "Trump is easily recognizable" I guess that's a thing, though I've never heard of it being used before. EDIT, I didn't quote it right, and @Powderhorn@beehaw.org caught me :)
The president certainly is recognizable ... thing is, he's a dead ringer for Joe Biden.
The resemblance between the current president and Joe Biden is uncanny, to say the least.
He is shaped like William Taft.
Presidents keep their title so he’s still “President Trump”. I hope his prison guards will respect that.
Also they aren't gonna handcuff him because they don't want him to look guilty or something like that.
No worries! I'd just like to keep the referring to Trump as "the president" to his spin team. They never call him "the former president" for a host of reasons, but that doesn't mean reasonable people should follow suit.
