Sen. Tommy Tuberville said he knows the look on former President Donald Trump’s face in Thursday’s mugshot.
In fact, he’s been on the receiving end of something similar, he said.
“I’ve seen President Trump with that look a couple times, playing golf with him, when he’s missed a putt, or I’ve beat him in a round of golf,” Tuberville (R-Auburn) said.

Tuberville told Newsmax host Greg Kelly that Trump’s indictment isn’t quite as fun as a day at the links, however.
“But this is serious here,” Tuberville said Thursday night. “If you care anything about this country, you should have the same look on your face that President Trump just had on his face during his mugshot.”
Trump appeared before Fulton County, Ga., officials Thursday following an indictment by District Attorney Fani Willis, along with 18 co-defendants related to the 2020 election.

“This is a disgrace to him, the next President of the United States – which will be him – a disgrace to the taxpayers of this country, and a disgrace to a country that’s made it 247 years without these kind of shenanigans happening,” Tuberville said.
“It just shows you what the Democrats are doing. They’re weaponizing everything they possibly can to bring this president down, to keep the Republicans from gaining control again – because they know when we gain control, their shenanigans, and their circus is over with – and they’re gonna do everything they possibly can.”
