Breaking: GPS Ankle Bracelet with Presidential Seal on Order

It has been reported by sources with many links to really important stuff that the White House has placed an order for a special GPS ankle bracelet bearing a 14k gold, enameled Presidential Seal for use if President Trump is placed under White House arrest. A putative White House spokesperson said, earlier today, "Keep in mind that this might never be needed, but we can't have the POTUS wearing just any GPS ankle bracelet. He would need a special model that might not be available on short notice. We're just, you know, covering the bases."

No photo is available of the actual device, but our readers can get an idea of how it will look, below:
