THE 'BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD' ...

 ... has just been hijacked by none other than Donald J Trump the worst human being in the world.


Trump has tried to cash in on the Bible in the past by claiming that his crappy (and ghost-written) book 'The Art Of The Deal' was surpassed in popularity only by the Bible and also in his staged tableau of holding the Bible up to deflect from the fact that he had threatened military action against protesters in Washington.


Now this self-aggrandising idiot, in another attempt to raise money has released a Trump Bible'

TRUMP IS SELLING GOD BLESS USA BIBLES TO RAISE FUNDS


Trump 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.

“All Americans need a Bible in their home, and I have many. It’s my favorite book,” Trump said in the video posted on Truth Social. “I’m proud to endorse and encourage you to get this Bible. We must make America pray again.”

Billing itself as “the only Bible endorsed by President Trump!” the new venture’s website calls it “Easy-to-read” with “large print” and a “slim design” that “invites you to explore God’s Word anywhere, any time.”

Besides a King James Version translation, it 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.
        - The Washington Post


Just what all Bibles need - copies of the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence and the Pledge of Allegiance. How come they didn't include these before (Robert probably hand-wrote those in himself in his own copy)?

What's next? Advertisements for McDonalds. KFC and Amazon? Donor pledges for Donald Trump? Centrefolds of scantily clad nuns and saints? Maybe Trump is on to something here.

I wonder what the 'Bible Belt' redneck state Americans will think of this? I guess that the “easy-to-read” with “large print” and a “slim design” catering to them kind of sums them up and tells us that it will be successful.

Alleluia!

Allah! Things are getting crazier and crazier! La mamma degli imbecilli è sempre incinta!

Hey, this is a very good post. Maybe being back in the office is paying off?

No. I'm an amateur. No one pays me for what I do - even in attention most times.

I wouldn't have posted that positive comment if I knew that all you would do is moan.

Tra il dire e il fare c'è di mezzo il mare.

THE CURMUDGEON said...

Thanks you for the positive comment. Surprisingly, curmudgeons don't get a lot of those except from the Catholics but I suspect an ulterior motive there.

'There is a lot of water between saying and doing.' Google translation.
Are you taking a leak between comments?

The King Jame's translation isn't considered very good by a certain catholic apologist I listen to.

THE CURMUDGEON said...

Well, it’s Trump we’re talking about. He and Jame make a good team.

Richard (of RBB) said...

Who is Jame?
Oh, yes, just another proofreading overlook.
I'm getting used to them.

Yes, that’s just as well now that AI is doing all of the sub-editing that humans used to. All of the subtitles on tv programmes now are done by AI and the grammar mistakes are annoying. This in turn ‘trains’ people to spell wrongly and to use the wrong words out of context. Man I’m glad I wasn’t a teacher. My career was marketing where we just made stuff up anyway.
