statement. it sounds like they re acknowledging the crimes committed by donald trump. they are acknowledging that some sort of federal crime had been committed here. i think we all have to stop trying to look at this through a lens of, like, it s just any other presidential campaign. we how this impact that. how will this debate push one candidate forward. we are living in unprecedented times. the influence that donald trump and his so-called legal woes are having not just on this campaign, on our democracy, our immeasurable. now, as jennifer just mentioned, trump s already infamous mugshot seem to have prompted a surge in the primaries. trump officials said that he has raised seven point $1 million spent his booking photo
