Former President Donald Trump is now selling Bibles as he runs to return to the White House.
Trump, who became the presumptive Republican nominee earlier this month, released a video on his Truth Social platform on Tuesday urging his supporters to buy the “God Bless the USA Bible,” which is inspired by country singer Lee Greenwood’s patriotic ballad. Trump takes the stage to the song at each of his rallies and has appeared with Greenwood at events.
“Happy Holy Week! Let’s Make America Pray Again. As we lead into Good Friday and Easter, I encourage you to get a copy of the God Bless the USA Bible,” Trump wrote, directing his supporters to a website selling the book for $59.99.
The effort comes as Trump has faced a serious money crunch amid mounting legal bills while he fights four criminal indictments along with a series of civil charges. Trump was given a reprieve Monday when a New York appeals court agreed to hold off on collecting the more than $454 million he owes following a civil fraud judgment if he puts up $175 million within 10 days. Trump has already posted a $92 million bond in connection with defamation cases brought by the writer E. Jean Carroll, who accused Trump of sexual assault.
Isn’t this the type of thing Jesus got angry about?
Trump is an amalgamation of just about everything Jesus preached against.
And sure bears uncanny resemblance to the antichrist (who IIRC was based on some asshole Roman Caesar or something… Who was probably a crooked, narcissistic piece of shit like DT)
between the antichrist parallels, the world unexplainably heating up and an ongoing war in Israel, I’m starting to look forward to all the chucklefucks getting raptured.
Hey MAGA Christians, this is what antichrist shit looks like, maybe it’s time to realize you’re backing the wrong golden calf.
This is the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard. How does this shit keep working for him?
How does this shit keep working for him?
Boomers were/are huge on collectibles.
So they see buying this shit not only as support for trump, but an investment.
They imagine a world 20 years from now where they have been proven right and this will become a family heirloom they’ll tell their great grand children about how they were right and luckily they saved the world.
And then everyone will clap and apologize for doubting them.
The one thing everyone has in common is they need hope. Dangerous politicians tell voters that the world will end if the other candidate is elected, and they’re the only ones that can stop it.
It’s so dangerous because people who fall for it, will excuse absolutely anything their “team” does. Because the world will end if their team loses. In a worst case scenario we end up with the illusion of choice, where both candidates are incredibly similar, but voters only care about a handful of issues that just doesn’t really matter to either of the candidates.
It’s like that episode of “Always Sunny” where Frank and Dennis distract Mac and Charlie about lime thickness so they stop asking about all the shady economic shit going on at the bar. Frank and Dennis don’t give a fuck about lime thickness, they just want to divide people so they stop asking about the money.
IMO, becoming a bible salesman is like the most stereotypical con-man gig…
Ask him for his favorite passage.
Since it’s a modified Bible that includes “copies of the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence and the Pledge of Allegiance, as well as a handwritten chorus of the famous Greenwood song,” maybe it’s this one.
“Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.” (Deut. 4:2.)
Yep, that’s right, Dishonest Don is hawking blasphemous Bibles to the rubes.
