Trump, Selling Bibles

IT REALLY SHOULDN'T SURPRISE ME that Donald Trump is selling Bibles, but it does. Literally, nothing that he says or does should surprise me, nor anyone, and yet, it does. And at this point it won't surprise me if he makes a killing selling Bibles, rakes in tens of millions of dollars from the Trump supporting evangelical Christian community.. Maybe even a billion. For only sixty dollars, a nice looking large copy with an apparently leather cover. Most conservative evangelicals probably have more than one copy of the Bible at home, often times many copies, as people collect them. Each copy has a unique story behind it, and fulfills a particular purpose in the collection.. To have forever one of Donald Trump's bibles would be for many a golden opportunity. Also, - and I'm sure Trump has thought of this - by selling Bibles, if he sells a lot of them, it will help solidify the amazing claim on the part of many evangelical Trumpers that Donald J. Trump was sent to us by God, and is the direct representative of Christ, the political vehicle for the glorious victory of Christ's kingdom on Earth. Or something like that. Trump's recent position statement supporting legal abortion until the sixteenth week of pregnancy, and, heaven forbid, some of his legal troubles, are threatening to soften Trump's normally huge support among conservative Christians. That, quite simply, must not be allowed to happen. Biden, being a Democrat, is Satanic.Trump must be returned to power, that America be made great again. First, the golden sneakers, now, bibles. What will be Honest Don's next entrepreneurial endeavors? Stay tuned to find out. He obviously needs money very badly, and that need will only increase. He is banking on the thought that if he is elected, he can dismiss all his legal problems by pardoning himself, or whatever it takes. Trump's followers, especially the evangelicals, love Trump because he enables their worst selves; their bigotry, anger, and hatred. His bible enterprise will be regarded as a demonstration that not only is Doanld Trump a good man doing the right thing for America and Christ, but that indeed the Lord Jesus Christ fully supports and annoints Donald J. Trump as God's president. Conservative politics and Christianitiy are traditionally intolerant, harsh, with hateful violent attitudes and forms of retribution for those who disobey the sacred laws and values, such as opposition to and hatred of homosexuality, greed for money and power, a cut throat competitive approach to economics which destroys compassion - all the things that Donald J. Trump stands for. His supporters should be decent and intelligent enough to see Trump's bible business as the scam that it is, and see Trump for the criminally insane reprobate that he has always been. But they refuse to, because refusing to, they think, benefits them.
