Not where it counts. Trump is the worst American alive right now, but the people who continue to support him do so out of spite and hatred towards those who are different than them. There’s no reason or logic to their support of him, it’s pure reactive emotion.
I said this once before but short of him converting to Islam, his loyal core isn’t going anywhere.
Weird bible study article…
And the history books will say that were it not for decent peoples’ revulsion at this particular grift, democracy could have been lost.
Are there no leading Christians who will speak out against trump? Or are they all part of the grift? Or are they merely cowards, unworthy of their professed guiding light?
Wapo has evidently never learned that trump’s base will not only forgive him anything, but will cheer on his most heinous acts.
No, it won’t backfire at all. He’ll make a profit and the book will still have quotes taken out of context to justify crappy behavior.
Trump is the human embodiment of a national dementia test and we’re failing it, man and woman, camera and tv.
Are you sure about that?
I think it’s weird that he pepper sprayed a crowd of innocent people so he could get to a church and hold the Bible upside down for a photo op and that did nothing to the Christian sect but this Bible with the flag printed on it and all these added things does. I would honestly think this would be less offensive but I’m starting to realize I don’t understand these people at all.
It’s been almost a decade now that I’ve been hearing that this or that will backfire on him. This dude is the one they chose to represent them. How exactly is this gonna backfire?
Like everything else it will consolidate one group of people, while another group of people will oppose it and the group in the middle will somehow still not have forged an opinion upon it. The group in the middle is the really baffling demographic.
Yes, I’m sure the idiots selling each other “Jesus is King” patches for their democrat hunting tactical vests will really care about this.
Churches can now (illegally) lauder money to trump through Bible sales.
That’s the grift.
No it won’t. At worst a very few Trump evangelicals will be offended for the weekend, then by next Friday all is forgiven.
Trump once said (paraphrasing) that he could shoot someone in the middle of 5th Avenue and not lose a single voter. How can we not believe him? There is nothing that is too despicable, too illegal, too unconstitutional, or too traitorous that his supporters would not defend.
Porn Star banging, Bible slaying, Hush money paying, sexual abuser “that’s Marla” E Jean Carroll $82Mil judgement needs paying,. Conspiring delay delay delaying Access Hollywood Grab em by the Pus*y saying cheating on Melania while pregnant with Stormy misbehaving, golfing more than any other POTUS playing, Georgia find me 11980 votes he’s begging, only cares about himself just saying, 3000 lies daily and counting, insurrection promoting, election loser denying, Truth Social no one’s listening. POW and military victims are suckers he’s crying, scamming, manipulating agitating activating angry hating time for him to be accountable and start paying.
The bibles were in the Baltimore container ship! Just kidding, he never bought any.
Press X to Doubt.
The various people I would have guessed would get mad at the co-opting of their dear sacred book have fully embraced the idea based on “free market” and “he supports God and is making it proudly known by doing this.”
Hillary Clinton was right calling his supporters deplorables.
Trump’s bible is a money laundering scheme. It is an easy way to get churches to sell Trump product directly to his base.
During Hitler’s time there was a school book titled ‘German Physics’.
So, now you guys got an ‘American Bible’.
I see.
No it isn’t. They all know Trump is an awful person. But he’s the only one who can get them closer to the medieval policy objectives they’ve been clamoring for since trains were invented. Dominionism has a long insidious history in this country and it will remain a grave threat to everyone in it so long as these ghouls have the funds to buy judges, politicians, and media.
Since the government refuses to enforce the rules on churches being barred from political activities, it may be about time to revoke their tax-exempt status. They’ve been abusing this lack of enforcement for way too long and it’s done unspeakable damage to our institutions.
Alexandra Petri (Washington Post) noted that there may be slight differences in these bibles, like the ten commandments with all the “nots” removed.
Selling Bibles to pay a pron star.
Yikes. He’s in full Hail Mary mode. I wonder who his campaign manager is and how they allowed this 😅😂
Funny to see him alienate his own party
I’m calmly waiting for ANYTHING to backfire on him.
No it wont, nothing ever backfires on him
This is scary , he put the American Flag on a Bible.
Lol he thinks it will backfire because they’ll read the Bible and realize how un-Christian Trump is.
Fascists don’t see Bibles as something to *read*, it’s something to bash your opponent over the head with.
This is a pretty flaccid editorial consisting of little more than pointing out that people might read the Bible and learn that Trump has violated various Commandments and other expectations.
So the author thinks it’s going to backfire because his supporters are actually going to read the Bible? Quite optimistic.
It isn’t. Trump could print a Bible with his name in place of Jesus’s and his voters would only cheer harder.
Buy 10 and get a free copy of the Art of the Steal!
Horseshit. This guy never has a consequence ever. The Bible’s will allow churches to funnel money to him in the open. He’ll be fine.
Article does a good job of pointing out how “he who shall not be named” violates the commandments and the teachings of Jesus, but not sure about the backfiring part…
