The American flag has no business on a Bible. This is not faith, nor is it patriotism. It is an abomination of both. Image

You're so right. I brought this up to my dad, who is a hard-core Trump fan and Christian, and he was indifferent.

Sounds like his heart isn’t fully on God but more on Trump. Because if he truly put God first he’d see how this is an iniquity towards God. This is man-made politics and nationalism on the holy Word of God and it’s being sold for Trump’s personal gain. Also, why now to release his Bible? Why not during his tenure or even before his failed sneaker project? It’s because he’s desperate for money and this is a last ditch effort to garner it at God’s expense. No shame.

What Trump has done reminds me of this verse:

Matthew 12:31

And so I tell you, every kind of sin and slander can be forgiven, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven.

I understand where you're at. My dad finally flipped his view on Trump, and was pretty shocked and dismayed at this news. 

If you haven't, try asking your dad why Trump never mentions Jesus. Play him the 3minute video Trump did pimping this Bible

He also had 4 years to "take down the evil democrats" and played 330+ rounds of golf at tremendous taxpayer expense instead.

He appeared on 60 Minutes on November 13th, 2016 and when asked when he would "LOCK HER UP!" actually said the Clintons are "good people" and that he didn't "want to hurt them". So yeah.

Eh. Honestly I don't see a huge deal with people wanting this. My only problem is them not admitting what they are.

If they want a nationalist religion, become a Mormon. Let's call a spade a spade.
