Marjorie Taylor Greene made her own “MAGA mugshot” because Trump was getting all the attention

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) – never one to miss out on any conservative social media trend – made her own mugshot in the style of mugshots that Donald Trump and his alleged coconspirators got when they surrendered themselves to authorities in Fulton County, Georgia.

Last night, Trump’s mugshot was shared widely on social media after he turned himself in at an Atlanta jail to face arraignment on 13 criminal charges connected to the alleged conspiracy to falsify Georgia’s 2020 election results and steal the state’s electoral votes. Throughout the week, people were sharing the mugshots of Trump’s 18 alleged co-conspirators as they turned themselves in.

Marjorie Taylor Greene called heckler a “disgrace to gay people.” It didn’t turn out as she planned.

People pointed out that maybe Marjorie Taylor Greene isn’t the right person to be calling others a “disgrace.”

Greene is not being charged as a co-conspirator in the case, and apparently that made her feel left out. So she photoshopped her official House portrait onto the background used by the Atlanta jail for mugshots.

“I stand with President Trump against the commie DA Fani Willis who is nothing more than a political hitman tasked with taking out Biden’s top political opponent,” she wrote. Fulton County district attorney Fani Willis filed charges under state law and is not a part of the Biden administration or the federal government at all. She is also a Democrat, not a Communist.

“Persecution, not prosecution,” Greene added with the hashtag #MAGAMugshot.

People mocked her on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Anyone can Photoshop a fake mug shot. Go break the law, coward.

Oh, honey . . . you don't need to go to the trouble of Photoshoping a mugshot of yourself. We'll get a real one eventually.

Yep. You will be standing alright, right beside him in prison.

Be careful what you mug for Marge.

.@RepMTG I hope it's standing in the middle of a Federal Prison, Marjorie. DA Fani Willis is a HERO. She is holding Trump accountable for what he did despite all the threats to her life.

No one is above the LAW! Not you, not your colleagues who met on 12/21/2020 to plan the…

It's bewildering that you are a member of the highest legislative body in the land.
