What to Know About Donald Trump’s New $60 Bible

There was: Trump board game, Trump University, Trump steaks, Trump collectable coins with his face on them, Christmas wrapping paper and decor, mugshot shirts, NFT cards, and recently: perfume, sneakers, and now a Bible.

“All Americans need a Bible in their home, and I have many. It’s my favorite book.”

I doubt Trump has even ONE Bible in his home, certainly not MANY,

Add this to the long list of Trump’s grifts. Can you blame him? He learned that his supporters were eager to pay for a tiny piece of fabric from the suit he was wearing during his Fulton County mugshot. What if there were more people willing to pay for a piece than there were enough pieces of the suit? I’m willing to bet one of his aids went out and bought a bunch of fabric the same color as the suit (just my opinion, not a proven fact!). It was then that he realized that his supporters would buy ANYTHING he was selling. The sneakers sold out right away and I have been curious since then to know if anyone paying $399 for the sneakers, probably made in China (just my guess, don’t come after me if I’m wrong!), actually read the fine print. It said that shipping wouldn’t start for months—likely because the sneakers hadn’t even been manufactured yet! He had the promotional pair made and if there was enough interest in them, he’d pay to have more made (last time, just a guess!). If his fans didn’t take the time to read the terms and conditions before paying $400, they have no idea that they shouldn’t expect a delivery any time soon:

Trump Sneakers are expected to start shipping June/July 2024 for the gold High-Tops, and the Potus 45 White Knit & RedWave Knit are expected to ship in July/August 2024. Shipping and delivery dates are estimates only and cannot be guaranteed.”

“Estimates only and cannot be guaranteed?!” If I saw that when I was about to spend hundreds of dollars, I would wait until after Summer to make the purchase. That way I can read reviews on the quality of the product and if they ended up NEVER being made or shipped out, I’d still have my 400 bucks.

Anyone that knows every business Trump has started has failed, would know better than to send any money to that man. Let’s see… There was: Trump board game, Trump University (he was sued and had to refund students), Trump steaks, gold coins with his face on them, Christmas wrapping paper and decor, mugshot shirts, NFT cards, and recently: perfume, sneakers, and now a Bible.

No other President has starred in poor quality social media video ads, selling products featuring their face or name. Come on, you have to realize that he’s a conman by now! It’s ridiculous and looks even worse to our adversaries and allies.

Donald Trump has succeeded in making a mockery of the Office of the President of the United States.

Here’s more about his latest product from Inae Oh at Mother Jones.


One month after releasing a line of gilded high-tops for $399, Donald Trump revealed on Tuesday a new item: the Bible. “All Americans need a Bible in their home, and I have many,” the former president explained in a video promoting the country singer Lee Greenwood’s version of a King James translation, the “God Bless the USA Bible.”

“It’s my favorite book,” Trump added.

Throughout the rest of the clip, as if daring us into a collective disgust, Trump swerved through random opportunities to rail against bureaucrats and a country under threat—all while hawking a holy text.

But his latest sales pitch also prompted some legitimate questions. Such as: What the hell is going on? And: Excuse me? Here, we try to answer some of the queries.

So, that first question—what the hell—but more formally: What exactly is Trump promoting and how much will it cost me to shell out for this?
