Trump had agreed to a $200,000 bond and other release conditions, including not using social media to intimidate co-defendants or witnesses in the case.

Just gotta point this thing out. Seems soft to me idk. Maybe they just want to give him more rope to see how much he will hang himself with it this time, but really a ban from all social media would make the most sense considering how much harm his posts on there have caused.

    To me it seems like the trump team had them retake te photo several times. It's off center, it's a non standard angle, and they're letting him make a face unseen in most mug shots.

    Yes and if you look at the other mugshots in the series, most have a big glare spot. Trump almost certainly got photo privileges

    I honestly think the glare is on Trump's "hair," it hangs over quite a bit too blocking light and he's got so much fake tan/makeup on that it doesn't reflect as much light as everyone else who didn't pretty up their faces for a mug shot lol

    Why are mugshot photos so shit quality? It's like they are taking them on a webcam from 2003? That one is so hilariously blown out that it's like you're looking at a solar flare instead of a human.

    Lol I agree but not sure if you responded to the wrong message? I'm talking about the restrictions the court put on him.

    I'm starting to default to think they're playing the rope angle really hard. He absolutely will not be able to conform to those terms. Though they should not have limited it to "social media", he has access to all the communication channels the world has to offer to put a hit out.
