Trump's Sells 'God Bless the USA' Bibles For $59.99
In a move that intertwines patriotism with commerce, former President Donald Trump has launched a campaign to sell 'God Bless the USA' Bibles for $59.99 each.
This initiative comes as Trump faces a mounting pile of legal bills, with recent reports indicating his legal expenses have surpassed $100 million since leaving office.
The 'God Bless the USA' Bible, inspired by Lee Greenwood's patriotic anthem, is being marketed as a unique blend of faith and nationalism.
The Bible features an American flag on its cover and includes the lyrics to Greenwood's song, along with copies of the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence, and Pledge of Allegiance.
Trump announced the sale of these Bibles in a video on his Truth Social platform, urging his supporters to purchase them.
Trump's legal challenges have been extensive and costly. The Republican National Committee (RNC) has made it clear that they do not plan to cover these expenses, leaving Trump to seek alternative funding methods.
The sale of these Bibles appears to be part of a broader strategy to finance his legal defense without dipping into personal funds.
The announcement has elicited a range of reactions. Some supporters view the Bibles as a celebration of American values, while critics accuse Trump of commercializing a sacred text for personal gain during a financially pressing time.
Notably, tech journalist Kara Swisher compared the venture unfavorably to her podcast's revenue, suggesting the Bible sales may not be as lucrative as hoped.
