A lot of it is no surprise as exploiting people for personal gain is kind of his M.O., but the Bible thing to me is the most disturbing and it's dumbfounding how many "Christians" support the man. Even before his Bible grifting it was odd to see so many of them rallying around someone so at odds with Christian values, but then this. How could anyone claiming to have a sincere fear of the Lord have a positive opinion of a man with the pride and audacity to print his own name on the Word and autograph it!? And then sell copies for personal profit of course but those first 2 parts tell you all you need to know about how much he cares about and respects you, your religion, and your God.

God Bless The USA Bible
Welcome to the official home of the God Bless The USA Bible, the only Bible endorsed by President Donald J. Trump and Lee Greenwood.godblesstheusabible.com
The state of Oklahoma received some criticism recently for issuing guidelines on the type of Bible to be ordered and kept in schools in the state because only the $60 Bibles appeared to meet the requirements. Supposedly they amended that but it looks like they still purchased at least some of the Trump Bibles for the schools.

The 500 Bibles purchased by the Oklahoma State Department of Education (OSDE) are the “God Bless The USA Bible” sold by Lee Greenwood and endorsed by President-elect Donald Trump, according to a purchase order obtained by FOX23.www.fox23.com
Okie dokie. By the way, are they usually $60 a pop?Sorry-Other than trump, who publishes bibles and makes $$ off of same, was my question ….I’ve answered my own question. Many aren’t free and there are several publishers that make $$ off of selling the Bible
All over the place it seems. Some less than $10, some are $250 or more. Generally depends on the jacketOkie dokie. By the way, are they usually $60 a pop?
Depends on the jacket and the translation. The more expensive ones tend to be more modern language/ easier to read translations - only so many people in the world are experts in and thus qualified to translate the languages the original texts were written in, thus commissioning a new translation is not cheap, nor are the licensing fees for recently commissioned translations.All over the place it seems.

i mean trump has been overselling cheap merchandise for a while now. every nickel and dime for himDepends on the jacket and the translation.

Trump didn't do that. He took an old, public domain English translation, so he had no licensing fees to cover, then slapped his name on it and sold it for $60. The exact same translation can easily be found under $10 and anyone who charges more is simply trying to rip you off. That's whatever though, plenty of people look to scam other for a quick buck. The really off-putting is that he considers himself worthy of putting his name on it.
