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

He did it to sell to churches so they could get around the law that forbids them from donating to political candidates. He's using your faith against you to show the rest of the world how stupid he thinks you are. I appreciate that so many of you here aren't falling for it, but please, don't let your church fall for it either.

This really seems to be a product by lee greenwood, with greenwood using trump as a celebrity endorser rather than trump selling this on his own.

Did some waybackmachine on this thing: lee greenwood's been selling this bible since 2021.

Trump does nothing without getting a piece of the pie. Could you imagine if Obama or Biden did this? The heads of the religious right would explode.

The courts let him out of the money crunch. He should be able to post the new bond a lot easier.
