Trump is selling ‘God Bless the USA’ Bibles for $59.99 as he faces mounting legal bills

Okay .... So Trump has endorsed a bible. He isn't selling it himself and so far I've seen nothing about him getting profits from it. SO WHAT? How is this any different than Biden endorsing electric cars? Aug 21, Biden drove a hybrid-electric Jeep on the White House grounds and he has told everyone to go out and buy electric cars. And Sep 22, Biden went to a Detroit car show and had a photo op with an electric car HERE .

So Trump is endorsing a product.
And Biden has been endorsing a product.

As far as we know, Trump owns no stock in the company that makes the bible.
As for Biden ... we don't know. All the family stocks are hidden in Jills name.
He might be invested in the electric vehicles in some way, he might not be.
Read Here

Democrats in general invest heavy with their personal finances in the so called 'green energy'.
So I"m sure they were very happy to see Biden pimping electric vehicles.
I have no idea if any Republicans have invested in the book company that makes the bible.

Trump endorsing a bible .... nothing new for politicians .... and a nothing burger.

Selling Bibles....

"What would Jesus do" is the question that needs to be asked among the faithful!

I don't care what trump does. I may even buy the bible to add to my other trump stuff.

Endorsing, not selling

The bibles are being produced and sold by Lee Greenwood. FFS google # folks. Nowhere in the OP is this mentioned.

Want to know why the left hates it so much?

The “God Bless The USA Bible” received heightened attention since the outset due to its overt political features. The text includes the U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence, Pledge of Allegiance, and the lyrics to the chorus to Greenwood’s “God Bless The USA.”

Critics saw it as a symbol of Christian nationalism, a right-wing movement that believes the U.S. was founded as a Christian nation.

A petition emerged in 2021 calling Greenwood’s Bible “a toxic mix that will exacerbate the challenges to American evangelicalism.” From there, a broader conversation ensued about the standards by which publishers print Bibles.

and this is what Trump said....

“All Americans need to have a Bible in their home and I have many. It’s my favorite book,” Trump said in a video posted to social media Tuesday, encouraging supporters to purchase the “God Bless The USA Bible.” “Religion is so important and so missing, but it’s going to come back.”

So much better than placating to Islam post 9/11 like Obama stating in a speech...

So the first thing I want to say is two words that Muslim Americans don’t hear often enough -- and that is, thank you. Thank you for serving your community. Thank you for lifting up the lives of your neighbors, and for helping keep us strong and united as one American family. We are grateful for that.

Tell it to the NEWS headlines PorkChop96.

Anyhoo semantics really.

What he is doing is clear.

That being hawking Bibles to pay his legal bills.

totally. He's almost broke. Just yesterday he was begging for some cardboard and a sharpie to make a sign so he could get some quick cash by the beltway exit ramp. You guys got him on the ropes, don't let up! And his Truth Social thing will go to zero in a few hours, so there is another win for you. God, it must be great being on such a winning streak.

Yeah, how so....is that a threat?

Well, I don't have any strong opinion on the Bible thing, nor have I expressed one so, have nice Easters.

consider it a PSA. You DERP well, but when DERPing, you run the risk of getting some on you, or falling into it face first. Both bad options.

But please, locate a moderator, and tell them I'm threatening you. It's the "alert" button under my clown. Go get em tiger.

Nobody has been able to tell me why this is such a problem for you guys?

It is a man endorsing bibles to sell, what is so wrong with it?

Oh wait, it's that orange man that makes it all bad isn't it?

I think anyone trying to hawk 60 dollar bibles is bad taste. Particularly someone running for office.

Why does 'orange mang' a pass from 'you guys' on everything?

A businessman ENDORSING a very nice Bible for a close personal friend, whether he's running for office or not. What's the issue?

Why does "orange mang" existing evoke such visceral reactions from "you guys"?

I have already answered.

I think promoting/selling/endorsing* 60 dollar bibles is bad taste for anyone running for office. Possibly anyone full stop.

I think there plenty of better reasons to dislike Trump if that helps.

* whatever you think this is.

Oh, so then your issue is any individuals freedom of religion. Got it. Thanks for that clarification.

All encompassing OMB, unsurprising and expected.

*I don't think this is anything but what it is. Sorry if you have issues with objective reality also.

Now you're DERPing....be careful amigo!

That company was selling that Bible for $49.99 in 2021, they raised the price to $59.99 because they have to pay Trump's company the difference for licensing fees. Realize it is a scam people.
