Donald Trump is selling cut up pieces of the suit he wore when he was arrested for nearly $7000.<\/p>\n
The former president has released a series of digital trading cards priced at $US99 ($150) each and anyone who buys all 47 will receive a physical card containing a piece of the \u201cpriceless\u201d navy suit and be invited to a gala dinner at Mar-a-Lago.<\/p>\n

The digital trading cards depict Trump in various forms, including superhuman, and riding a horse holding a \u201cnever surrender\u201d flag. <\/span>Credit: <\/span>collecttrumpcards.com<\/cite><\/p>\n Trump became the first president to have their mugshot taken when he was arrested in Fulton County, Georgia, in August this year on charges of electoral interference.<\/p>\n An advertisement declares the suit to be \u201cthe most historical significant artefact in United States history\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cIt was a great suit, believe me, a really good suit. It\u2019s all cut up and you\u2019re going to get a piece of it,\u201d Trump says in an advertisement video.<\/p>\n The virtual trading cards, known as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), variously depict the former president as a cyborg, in a cowboy hat and sitting on his own version of the Lincoln Memorial.<\/p>\n \u201cI wish I looked as good as I do on those cards, that I can tell you.\u201d<\/p>\n In one he is depicted carrying a flag that reads \u201cnever surrender\u201d as he rides a galloping horse with eagles flying around him, while another shows a slim Trump walking through Washington with lightning coming out of his hands as fighter jets fly above him.<\/p>\n \u201cI wish I looked as good as I do on those cards, that I can tell you,\u201d the former president says in the video. \u201cThey give me muscles where, believe me, I don\u2019t have them.\u201d<\/p>\n Trump has previously released two other batches of NFTs to his supporters.<\/p>\n He branded his August arrest a \u201cvery sad day for America\u201d in its immediate aftermath but is now capitalising on the mugshot\u2019s popularity among his fans.<\/p>\n \u201cThe people that are buying these Trump digital trading cards are new friends of mine, more than anything else,\u201d he is quoted as saying on the NFT website.<\/p>\n The Telegraph, London<\/strong><\/p>\n Get a note directly from our foreign <\/i><\/b>correspondents <\/i><\/b>on what\u2019s making headlines around the world. <\/i><\/b>Sign up for our weekly What in the World newsletter<\/i><\/b>.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\nMost Viewed in World<\/h2>\n
