Former President Donald Trump apparently has big plans for his impending mugshot.
Trump is scheduled to arrive at the Centre Street courthouse in New York City Tuesday morning for processing in his arraignment, set to take place at 2:15 p.m.
He's expected to plead not guilty to all charges stemming from the alleged hush money payments made on his behalf to an adult film star in 2016.
A close friend of the former president told The Daily Mail that Trump is planning to capitalize on his mugshot, which he's sure will be "the most famous mugshot ever in the history of the world."
According to the report, Trump apparently intends to use the mugshot to "raise millions for his presidential campaign."
"President Trump knows his mugshot will become the most famous mugshot ever in the history of the world," Toni Holt Kramer, a friend of Trump's for more than a decade and head of the Trumpettes support group, told The Daily Mail. "It's something that will become symbolic of the Left's attack on Trump and any attempt to use it to humiliate him will backfire spectacularly. Everyone is going to want it. Even his detractors."
Kramer went on to say the mugshot "sums up the witch-hunt against Mr. Trump and is emblematic of everything that is wrong with the banana republic that Biden's America has become."
Another source close to the ex-President told the publication that plans are in place to offer items printed with the mugshot on Trump's official website -- from coffee mugs and tea towels to posters, T-shirts and flags.
"We are hoping to have the items for sale within 48 hours of his arraignment," the unnamed source said.
Trump has denied any wrongdoing in the case, which centers on hush money paid to porn star Stormy Daniels just before the 2016 presidential election. The indictment is still sealed, but sources told the Associated Press that Trump is facing multiple charges of falsifying business records, including at least one felony offense.
