Haha - nice follow up! You said it all and very well.
I just got my Bible today in the mail. You did an honest review. I expected the quality to be better for the price I paid. Some pages did stick, nothing ripped. It's hard to read words on a page because you can also see words on the other side of the same page. DT endorsing this Bible did get me to purchase my first Bible. So, in that sense it was a good thing and worth it. I want to be close to God and learn more about my religion. They shipped Bible without messaging me about it. I had no clue it was arriving. Luckily, I was home when mailman arrived. There shouldn't be translucent pages and sticky pages for the high price. Also, Lee Greenwood hand written lyrics are a copy. I actually made the mistake of thinking it would be handwritten for each Bible since there was a limited amount of Bibles according to them. I give this Bible a 6/10. But 10/10 for Bible contents. For those wondering if they should buy this Bible, save your money and get regular king James version for a lot less. You can get declaration of Independence, constitution, etc separately.
Your comments would be more valid if you were not selling subscriptions, amazon links to cheap Chinese products, and cheap Bibles. Forget you make no mention of the current Caesar declaring Easter Sunday as a day for Trans and Pride. Further, they are not divorced, America exists because of the tenants of Christianity. Those other documents exist to apply those tenants to Caesar. Language that is being ignored, manipulated, destroyed, more now than the entire history of this Country. I don't have the Bible for the very reasons you mentioned, nor am I passing judgment for those that chose not to divorce their freedom from their faith. I completely agree nothing is at the same level as God and his word. That isn't want was done here, or for that purpose. Trump's bad taste in this culture, may have been the first time many people were actually introduced to the Word as it too is being manipulated, ignored, and destroyed by the same people, for the same reasons.

Bibles should not be used as a political tool by any politician.
That's why separation of religion and state SHOULD step into place..
you'd have hated the founders then! They used to pray before every session of Congress and held Church in the capital for over a century.
@@viperBSG our problem isn't politicians believing in a religion. They can pray as much as they want. The problem starts when they try to dictate other people's lifes because of their beliefs/religions.
THANK YOU!!!
Religion: the cause of the never-ending middle-eastern war.
Trump doesn't even believe.
In another year it'll be $1.25 at Dollar Tree.
And would still be over priced.
A cost of $1.25 at DOLLAR Tree is appropriate, as Trump also started the inflation trend. Don't agree? Look at the valuation of his properties for all these years.
😆😆🤣🤣😆🤣😆
Hahaha
You win, ♥
If you unknowingly are invited into a house and see a trump bible, get out as fast as you can out of that property.
That is absoultely riduculous. There are VERY nice people that read the Bible that would purchase that Bible from Lee. You are creating division. Remember you will have to give account for every iota spoken.
Not to worry because you wouldn't be welcome at my house with that attitude.
I THINK YOU'D RUN FROM ANY BIBLE...
Good advice monos70 !
@Angelofmcy don't worry, you wouldn't be invited in.
The real bible does not need Trumps endorsement
Amen
all religions need the dumpster and are based on lies to get people to fight for their oppressors. the bible is written by man making it FAKE! along with all religious books and associated religions with them.1
Biden should do a commercial holding a Bible in front of the church he attends on a regular basis and say he approves of Jesus' message . Then he can give out a link to print your own copy of the Constitution , lyrics etc .
,, Where in that Bible do you see Prez Trumps endorsement? His name is no where on or in it. Lee Greenwood is the only name in it.
@@davidleatherneck but the context is what is important. God just want you to read his road map to life everyday.
A Bible should not have any country's flag on it.
Just so it is read. That is the important part.
A good, HONEST bibble has blank pages from start to finish.
Agreed!!!
The Bible belongs to the whole world. You are right. 💞
Why not? I have Bible study by others. It doesn’t make any difference as long as the scripture is the scripture. God”s Word.
They’ve taken my Fathers House and turned it into a den of thieves.
That was my first thought when I heard about this.
Well said.
The Bible is RIGHT!
Trump should be treading lightly for using the Name of God and His Precious Word as a political tool. If I were him I’d be very very afraid.
@@007Julie Why? Why should Jesus (Trump) be afraid of what God does to him? He is God according to most evangelical Christians.
Thank you for being truthful about what this really is.
As a Christian, I get so discouraged by some people’s blind allegiance to certain political figures, and you clearly are strong enough in who you are and what you believe in, that you spoke your mind, regardless of what others may say.
This video did restore my faith that I’m not the only person of faith that can spot a grift when I see one.
✌️
I was raised evangelical (what I now call Christian-Talibangelist) but have become agnostic, because 80% of evangelicals have sold their souls to the Trump cult. Nothing makes sense anymore. God is dead --- crucified by Trump and his cult of mindless, soulless, believers
spot a grift huh? as you believe in a god. that's rich HAHAHA 😂😂
@@cliftongaither6642
I give no money to any church or religious affiliation whatsoever.
So, where’s the “grift” clifton?
It's $75 because he's not selling you a bible, he's raising defense funds.
Will his Proud Boy army use these bibles to beat Capitol police with next insurrection.......
@@afriendtoo6971 There was no insurrection on January 6, 2021, except in the imagination of politicians, MSM, and those indoctrinated (brainwashed) by them.
The real insurrection occurred on November 3, 2020. Those prosecutions are yet to come. 😃😃😃😇
The stunning irony of him getting money from Christians to help him cover his adulterous affairs that he paid hush money for while his third wife was taking care of their newborn son. . .
🤦🏻♀️
Shameless, utterly. He is an appallingly shameless person.
$75 dollars..expensive toilet paper
@@josephinethornton3823 do you think the morality in the bible is better....last time I heard donald didn't own slaves
"Feels fake and cheap..." sums up its promoter pretty well too.
it states nowhere on the website that is bound in leather
@@krwd The statement that it is “leather bound” is in the promo video.

good description of the bible also

$15 for the Bible $60 for someone's legal defense fund.
So true
Yup! People supporting Trump are struggling with Christianity!
Trump is worth 3 billion,
and now since the SEC approved Truth Social going public, it adds another 4 billion to Trump's wealth.
So , do you support the Soros funded corrupt prosecutors & their false charges?
Play Christians just do not get that. I cannot believe how ignorant this Nation has become.
More likely that money will just go straight into his pocket. The grifting on the legal defense fund will continue elsewhere. This is just "Trump Bible", like "Trump Steaks", "Trump Wine", "Trump University" and other similar grifts down through his decades of slimey orange existence.
Definitely made in China. I don’t know why that would shock anyone who has been paying attention to the Grifter in Chief.
So are the MAGA hats apparently.
You ALL are absolutely hippocrits - how many things do you have in your house that is made from China. Sad that so many of you attack a man that wants to keep our freedoms. If this Bible gets into the hands of one person and can save him from going to hell then I will not attack Lee for putting the constitution in the Bible. This Bible has been published for a couple of years before Trump - it was published by Lee. I hope you have a Bible in your house and you read it.....probably it was made in china.
Yeah!! Just like the MAGA hatz!
Hate to break it to you but almost all bibles are printed in China.
"These things are subjective"? Really? Seems like it's objectively blasphemous, as well as being a pure scam. It's not a "mis-step". It's theft.
Having a Holy Bible sold to pay someone's legal troubles are blasphemy😢
So is saying we should support abortion?
@@MrGreen-fi5sg someone's rights are totally different.
@@JoeHernandez1210 To what? Butcher a baby?!?
@@JoeHernandez1210 A child and the mothers body are TWO completely different things.
@@MrGreen-fi5sg smh a child in the mothers body. Are the same.
The Bible should never be a commodity nor an advertisement for a person or an ideology.
I am a life-long atheist, so any "holy-book" leaves me out, BUT as a form of respect for "other" people's beliefs I would never belittle them with poor taste biswax shenanigans..!
I seem to remember that not so long ago we here in the West were condemning (and went to war with) other elements, within other cultures that were articulating their ideologies through the lenses of their religions, at a fundamentalist level.
@@Vic-cv3df Please provide some details on this.
GOOD advice. Too bad the DVA (Dumb Voters of America) think otherwise.
@@DominiqueSchaffnermight want to change your religion. Just because you don't believe in heaven or hell doesn't mean you ain't going down below my friend.
Upon closer look, and noticing that only the original 10 Amendments in the Bill of Rights are included, leaving out slavery, women’s right to vote, and Presidential term limits;
is this considered the White Christian Nationalists Bible? Any thoughts on that or is that already known to everyone but me?
Well spotted, Shogo!
trump + god bless america + printed in china + the constitution pages sticking together = perfection!
and half the Constitution missing... it ends at amendment 10. There's 27 amendments. Trump doesn't like those others. Foreshadowing his future plans.
Bone spur draft dodging, p grabbing, twice impeached, convicted molester, habitual lying orange stain runs deep.
Now that is PEAK capitalism. The conservatives will be very happy!!!
And sometimes rips uncomfortably when taken apart.......sounds about right indeed!
I can tell either one of you don't own one, who are we kidding you probably can't afford it.
I am not a "PROUD" American. I am a GRATEFUL American. Because. I did not do anything to be an American. People who migrate to America and become citizens have to work hard to do so. They, can be proud Americans. I am just grateful.
Just guessing, I doubt DJT could pass the test that those seeking citizenship must.
Beautifully said.
Huzzah!
Well stated. Kudos.
Why are you grateful? There are lots of other countries.
@@grvlpts A who did what now?
If my pastor show up with one trump Bible I definitely will be out the door.
I wonder if a religious institution's use of the Trump Bible could destroy their status as a tax exempt organization ?
@@georgeb.wolffsohn30 I don't know anything about tax exempt, I am a member of the church, I don't work for the IRS, or part of the church administration.
Would u go out the door if the Bible was from an alphabet group toted by a “woman” pastor
@@gdiaz8827One is selling a free Bible while the other is living their life the way Jesus said they can. So I wonder, would you be out the door?
@Shinycelebi this bible is not free but u are free to download copies of the kjv or a real bible. No one us forcing anyone to buy a Trump bible. If people not following actual catholic teachings bothers u, u wouldn't be a waterboy for Biden and the democrats who are very much against Christianity
No publisher wanted credit🤣🤣🤣
It wasn't "published", it was assembled.
Hahaha
Selling a Bible to pay for CRIMINAL defense is an ultimate insult to the Bible.
The bible deserves to be insulted.
You voted them into the office. Trump, Biden, potato, tomato.
@@thegrunbeld6876 Tell us what Joe Biden has ever been indicted for in his entire life. Not fake news, actual facts.
When are people going to see that this stuff they are doing to Trump is because he is standing up for our freedoms. HE IS THE ONLY ONE. We are soon to become like China - they have even said you will own NOTHING and be happy about it. Tyson is now joining with a food company to put bugs in their foods. But you complain that Trump wants to keep our freedoms and help the people stay free. You all on this website are fighting the wrong battle. If you are Christians then I am so disappointed in your hatred towards this man. At the present time Trump is the only on fighting for our freedoms.
You would think an evangelical could spot a "Golden Calf" when they see one.
Unlikely; evangelicals are all about the gold, worship of signs of wealth and power. If the bible is actually warning about phony christians evangelicals especially those politically conservative and nationalistic are anti christian.
They used to believe in the stereotype of the fast talking New York City grifter…. And then they fell in love with a fast talking New York City grifter. .
@@xiaoka because in reality its all about how trump confirms their biases, lack of principals, genuine bigotries, crassness etc.
@@xiaoka I don't care WHAT he calls himself! He may be a grifter, but he's not from New York...anyway, he don't look or sound like ANY New Yorker that I know! New Yorkers are intelligent, liberated people, and Trump is not. Period.
Golden Calf? More like Orange Bullsh…..
Thank you for the review.
One issue I have. America is NOT a "Christian Nation". It is a country established on the premise of "Freedom of Religion". Meaning, you are free to follow whichever religion you may choose, or, no religion at all.
Heh. Notice the silent crickets chirping in the room all of the sudden when actual facts are laid bare at the feet of the willfully ignorant?
The silence, it is deafening.
Freedom FROM religion.
EXACTLY. Freedom OF religion and Freedom FROM religion.
❗️George Carlin has a bit about the Ten Commandments in which he ends with an addition, “Keep thy Religion to Thyself”. To push your religion on others is no more appropriate than anyone else pushing their religion on you.
@@jerryrobinson7856 And mostly counterproductive...
(09:32) "... if I walked up and saw this at Walmart, seems like a place that might have something like this..." 🤣🤣🤣 That says it all!!!
In the future with the way our country is going under present administration if "you walked up and saw this at Walmart" you would thank the Lord in Heaven for that find. China can not have Bibles and that is where they want to take our country.
Not a sewn binding. This is called notch back. Where it looks like there might be threads it is just notches with thick glue. Notice also there it no rounding to the spine.
You sound like you know about book binding, Jonathan. Good spot!
I had training from a french bookbinder. I was not able to make it a living as my teacher returned to France and passed from this life after two years of my training. I was in commercial printing for many years and learned of current mass production technique of notch binding that looks like sewn.
So, a "patriotic" Bible endorsed by Trump on TV and sold for a high price turns out to be cheap, shoddy, and overpriced. Who'd a-thunk it? :)
Wait until the news breaks that the Bibles were printed in CHINA !
Please let this be true.
Like trump, of course.
As a kid growing up going to church I never ever see someone sell Bible Sunday schools Bible was always there if u. Want to read it is blasphemous to me selling God words disgusting blasphemy
@@hewanjosephs1298
Did you see the gold Trump statue at CPAC? Um, , it was made in China, according to reliable sources. SMH
*Just* *more* *of* *D* *J* *Trump's* *Buy-BULLL!*
Of Course, because Trump's MAGA is ALL about *FREE* *Duhhhhhhmmmb!*
So, basically, the ones he bought from Lee Greenwood's leftovers are what's called Remainders in the book business. They are books, from obscure to best sellers that are left over when sales slow. They'm were often on big tables in the middle of the store, from 99¢ to maybe $4.99.
They're stale leftovers ‼️
Trump uses elderly peoples patriotism and religion for profit. Buying these books real cheap from Lee Greenwood then doing an advertisement with them
Leaving out the 11th through 27th Amendments speaks volumes to what he's truly about.
The cover of the Bible should not be seen as advertising space for a flag.
Excellent point that I have not seen raised until now, that bears repeating. Kudos.
May the oracle smile upon all your household appliances, and may you make much moochy in the moonlight, young Jedi.
And may Laura Croft bless your ashram.
Namaste.
What is wrong with praising God for blessing America because its founders believed in Him?
@@earlysda To nationalize the Bible is an abomination. These are not the words of America, and none of those words were written by an American. There is no such thing as a "American Bible" anymore than there is a Japanese Bible. Only the language can change, not the teachings. There was also no English written in the original manuscripts. Thirdly, every Christian populace believes God is on their side. When they fight another Christian nation....who is wrong? 😶😶 Would that be God fighting himself? In closing claiming to know the mind of God is an abomination against him. So you say God loves America? Don't stroll around in a lighting storm then. Unless of course you can show me that passage in scripture.
@@earlysda Some of the founders were Christian, and some weren't. God is truth, not the foolishness fed to you by Trump and MAGA. The Bible is no place for nationalism, Karen. God is for EVERYONE, not just white Americans. Deuteronomy 4:2
@@earlysda "...its founders believed in Him." Source?
When I was a kid and went to church, the minister always said you shouldn't pay for a Bible. Anyone that tries to sell you one is dishonest.
10000000%
Someone has to pay for the printing. Even Bibles don’t appear out of thin air.
Some of my Bibles also have extensive footnotes and interesting essays on the meaning of passages or the context. I am happy to pay for the hard work these devout men and women have done that helps me.
How do I get one then?
Nothing is free now a days. Get over it.
I never paid for a bible and yes I have more than one
I heard that a few amendments are missing, was your copy complete?
Isn't it a bit weird that they included the first amendment in this Bible? It literally say "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"
John 2:16
“Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!”
Nonsense. Few people even bring Bibles to church.
The Father's house needs Bibles and this one will do.
How is this in your father's house? It's not being put in the pew racks.more people should read.😅
Tim’s view on this seems about right. I wonder how many people will spend too much money on this as they await the glorious second coming of President Donald J Trump. I’m not bashing Trump here, I’m just saying cause sometimes you just gotta say.
People buy Bibles. It's been normal for a long time. There's nothing bad about it.
@@davidjoseph7142
We are discussing a basic large print kjv Bible. That's pretty much what you need to study, church, or daily devotions.
The American stuff is really needed in times like these.
The First Amendment says that congress cannot indorse or establish any religion. We U.S. citizens have to right to practice any religion we wish to or none.
Yes
Not about Religion..it's all about Jesus.
@@lynnecarroll9953 No one has a right to force you to believe anything. A person has the right to be a Buddhist, a Hindi, Shinto. Pagan or atheist.
@@vixendoe6943 could I say anything about Force? Those are your words not mine. Can a trump wants to put the declaration of Independence in the Bible, he's not forcing you to buy it. It's not about religion.... Loud and proud it's about Jesus
@@lynnecarroll9953 Why just talk about Jesus? Why not talk about other holy scriptures? Why just the Bible? Yes, Jesus is a wise man and a good teacher, but not every one believes that he is any more holy than Buddha or Brahman. It is not just about Jesus or any other holy person.
I agree, when I first saw the advertisement I was appalled that all of the USA documents were included. The Bible is for everyone in the world and should not be political. People who have read the Bible know this. Thanks for posting this video to clarify this truth.
How is the entire Bible printed (in large print) in a book that’s two inches thick?
I have only the first 5 books with some commentary, and it’s five inches thick.
Big, fat atheist here. I have mad respect for you for doing this vid. Thank you for your candor in this review.
Likewise. I never could have imagined watching a bible review video however I found this review to be well presented and I may watch a few more now for context.
I’m Protestant, I like the new versions, modern English translations. Not surprised Team Trump couldn’t get fast, easy permission to use those. King James version is alright, but Trump settling for King James translation makes me smile-Trump doesn’t care, has never read a word of it in any form. I really appreciate your investment and assessment.
Also an Atheist, I am so glad this review was honest.
@@vjglucky7 seriously, this bible was out long before Trump encouraged people to buy it, i kid you not ask Lee Greenwood who was an early supporter of this patriotic bible Do you remember Lee Greenwoods hit God Bless the USA... song back during Reagan like i said the concept goes back a while
Atheist here also, and non-American. So this is offensive to me on several levels. But as I said in another comment, if I were an American and a believer, I'd be pissed that something I consider sacred was being used as a crass publicity stunt and cash grab. There's only a very small portion of the population that doesn't have significant reason to be offended by this. Sadly, they seem to be the ones most likely to forgive Trump absolutely anything.
When Trump says his “house has many many Bibles” he means his Hotels…
Placed and paid for by The Gideons.
Oh, of course..... good insight.
He can't even recite a verse
Hahahahaah! And those are Gideon's bibles!
@@vicferrari89 nah, they are just disguised copies of his "The Art of the Deal"!
I'm not a person of faith but very very happy that you can seperate politics and faith.
Are some of the pages removed like "Exodus 20:15"?
Whoa.... What about Exodus 20:14 and 20:16?
I've worked in the book publishing industry for over 34 years. I know a thing or two about how books get published-including Bibles. Based on the overall appearance of the Trump Bible, I will guarantee that it's cheaply published in China. That's why there's no copyright page, which is actually slightly illegal. They did register the ISBN number with the government, the Library of Congress. The version of the text that was used, the King James version, is considered public domain and therefore free use to anyone who wants to publish a Bible cheaply. More recently versions including the NIV and RSV are still copyrighted. The gilded edges are causing the Bible pages to stick together. It's a thin coating that's applied after the book is printed and bound. The other supplemental elements, i.e. Declaration of Independence, Constitution, etc. are also public domain and free use. So the only cost to the publisher is the printing, which is likely less than $1 in US currency. Selling them for $60 is an enormous profit, especially when you consider that all of this information could be easily found online for free. There's also the issue of them only available in large print, which means there's a clearly defined target audience, gullible seniors. For someone like Trump who claims that the Bible is his favourite book, which he reads daily, it surprises me to learn that when he recently attended a fundraising event sponsored by a Christian organization, he was asked to lead the audience in reciting the Lord's Prayer. But he didn't know the words. Even an atheist would likely know the words to this common prayer.
Many atheists I know have read the Bible cover-to-cover and some also read the Torah and the Koran. It's because they are curious people and they want to know what others believe and why. Many say that reading the Bible either put the first doubts in their mind or confirmed their lack of belief.
One of my good friends was an older atheist (now deceased) who was often asked to be on a local talk-radio show to talk about atheism. The host always suggested that callers not try to argue the Bible with Joe because he knew it better than most of them. But they would call and read Bible verses to him and Joe would quote from memory passages of scripture that totally contradicted those verses.
"Properly read, the Bible is the most potent force for atheism ever conceived.” ~Isaac Asimov
@@carolpeiffer2222 Because he memorized passages that supported his claim doesn't mean he was using them in proper context.
It's a fallacy and looks smart but isn't.
No, an athiest would not necessarily know the words to the Lord's Prayer. It doesn't mean they can't, but I would venture that most don't.
@@divekatdreaming "Most don't" doesn't sound accurate to me. I'm an atheist, but like all but one of the atheists I know, was raised with religion. Those words were graven in my mind in childhood, like hundreds of other bible passages and like much of the Episcopal liturgy. Most atheists don't pop out of the womb as atheists.
@@divekatdreamingI don't agree. More or less kids learn the Lord's Prayer in grade school whether or not they're brought to church. And it's heard at every funeral and in movies.
Most "billionaires" GIVE Bibles away, they don't charge $ for them.
most billionaires not only don't give bibles away but only a few are church going,
I suspect there are no bibles in the drawers of the rooms at Mira Largo.
It's pretty simple to see who loves money more than the word.
@@user-fx6hf1fv9d The part of Trump's surrealistic Bible commercial video that stands out to me is when he praises the Bible and says: _"...and I have many"._ I think the lightning bolt missed its cue at that point. But if you look close, it does look like his nose got a little longer right after he said that.
Satan sells them!
Fantastic review! I thoroughly enjoyed this review! Came right over after watching Jaclyn Glen’s video and I am now surprisingly interested in other Bible reviews- such great observations made here about things I sincerely never thought about before
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for the review, I wondered about it being so thin!
I’m surprised the cover wasn’t put on upside down.
Touché!! Nice jab! 😂😎
LOL...! YOU ROCK!!!
😂😂
"I would be shocked if Donald Trump was promoting a Bible printed and bounded in China."
I wouldn't.
Up above is him promoting it. Believe it.
Would not be surprised. It is cheaply made.
Like AT ALL, right?! 😂😂😂
Trump’s first MAGA hats were made in China.
To be fair, the Chinese create a product exactly how the product is ordered by the corporation, and corporations like to cut corners to maximize profits, decreases their chance to go to Heaven, according to superstition. How many more trees must be sacrificed to these Bible / money mongers?!
Based on the ISBN number of the Bible, it appears to have been published by LMA Productions of Nashville, a music publisher with some past association with Lee Greenwood.
SOMEBODY ELSE SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECORD FOUND BY THE ISBN.

I have never watched a Bible review video before.
I had not stopped to ponder if such a thing even existed. And, honestly, had I previously known of such enterprises, I would have still never watched a Bible review video.
However, this was delightful. I’ll sub and like.
First, your review was so fair and balanced, insightful, professional. Like a good piece of nonfiction-in which powerful disparate images are portrayed side-by-side, simply juxtaposed with one another without requiring elaboration, the components of the Bible inform on the others: here we have Revelations and the return of Christ…and…here are lyrics to God Bless the USA. Enough said, haha.
My favorite moments of inadvertent humor were that at 7:37 and at 8:05 “powers of impeachment. Ope! That is stuck together…” I snorted aloud and startled my pup. I appreciate your honest assessment not only of the quality, but also of its inclusion of national documents. Let’s put church and state in one convenient location! Not.
Last, I would be absolutely shocked were a Bible endorsed by trump NOT made in China.

Disappointing that a Bible would say that it’s genuine leather when it’s not. You can’t tell me that the person who wrote the description didn’t know that it was not genuine leather.
Typically Trump lieing about the Bible.
trump lying about anything/everything should be the first warning about this. Second should be it is so obvious he has never evened opened one!
@@user-nb3sx5kk4syou might want to relisten to his presentation, but this time take a double dose of your TDS medication. He said he is not sure where he read that, but believes he read it said it was genuine leather.
Also, this Bible isn't produced by President Trump and he never stated it was. He simply chose on Easter to promote people getting a Bible and getting into the Word, and chose his personal friend Lee Greenwood's Bible to promote.
Lee is the one that is on a mission to promote Biblical based patriotism including and especially to new immigrants.
A lot of book printing factories are (after all the rigmarole of contractor companies) in China, and they often just use whatever materials are cheap,.as opposed to what the customer ordered.
Sad, because a lot of quality art books used to be printed in Hong Kong.
@@suburbanbanshee Look for the Bamboo fibers in the paper!
Anyone who thinks Trump is a Christian, or even believes in a higher power, is a sign that person is being played so well.
I never question anyone’s faith. You should not either
Most especially the first part. Trump and christian never legitimately appear in the same sentence.
@@sharicooper-michener8177 That's good advice. That should apply retroactively to those who can't keep their damned mouths shut about it.

@@sharicooper-michener8177- I agree.
You are a wicked person to doubt a person’s religion. It is only a wicked Demorat who would do that
Do you at least get to write the cost off for work related tax purposes?
Oh yeah!
I bought this as a gift for someone. Now I wish I hadn't. It's been a month, it still hasn't arrived and when I emailed them, nothing. I hope it's not a scam.
I’ve heard that a lot.
The difference between Trump and Jim Jones is that Don would have charged for the kool-aid.
👏👏👏
I’ve been saying that before and how much Trump is a Jim Jones wanna be. I absolutely agree with your comments. Trump would get everybody to drink the kool aid and he wouldn’t and then call them all suckers and laugh as he went around and picked the pockets as the lay there dead.
😂
😂😂
you know its gona happen when he starts advertising cans @ $30 each
My mom was both a tremendously patriotic person and a devout Christian. She would not have liked a Bible with a flag on it, and would have said that both are cheapened by the juxtaposition. She never fell for hucksters, and never wanted a confluence of church and state because government is public, and religion is private. A true patriot and a true Christian, was my mom.
She was genuine.
You're mom was a "True American". It shows her intelligence when she described Government being Public an Religion as being Private
,, That Flag/Country was founded on Biblical principle/Scripture, But Michael did refer to it as a rage.
cool story bro.. you mum really is a dragon
@@davidleatherneck This country was specifically and intentionally NOT founded upon scripture, and that is common knowledge that will not change no matter how many times you repeat your nonsense.
Is there any way to find out where this bible was printed?
Thank you, I agree and i also find it concerning that there’s no identity to publication. Your video was very helpful as to readability and quality.
Glad it was helpful!
I almost died laughing when he said I think it's a money grab.
Are you kidding me.. everything Trump does from sneakers to Steaks to vodka is a moneygrab. Are you kidding me? That's all he cares about.
He only likes white rich people
That's all Biden thinks about too, so your comment is actually funny.
@@lynnt092952 What would that be? Please cite a few cases.
@@lynnt092952 How many products has Biden sold?
What money grab from our current president? He seems to be bringing tax money back to the communities for highways, water, other infrastructure - you know, the things your local government can't afford. He is bringing back dignity not demeaning or degrading others. It's called MAGA not KKK.
As a European it always amazes me that a lot of Americans seem to think God has a special interest in the USA. Shouldn’t religion rise above political borders and nation states. In my opinion it is so childish but also dangerous.
I admire the US founding documents because they represent a humanist vision. I don’t think they belong in the bible. What do buyers of this bible think? Should every country in the world publish a bible with their own founding documents and lyrics of their national anthem?
Truth, the attitude of Jesus loves you, but we're his favorite.....the arrogance. They walk around like God loves us best.
Speaking as an American, for what it's worth, I can assure you that the majority of Americans are horrified by this garbage and that miserable excuse for a human being. That man *never* won the popular vote. He has never appealed to the majority. It's a sick joke and a confluence of many factors that allowed him to win once. It is unlikely he can repeat that phenomenon.
To answer your question, YES!
Nailed it
I believe the words you're grasping for are "golden calf".
Great review. Thanks.
God bless you for all your work in these videos!
I appreciate that!
The high price for a cheap Bible likely printed outside of America is reason enough not to purchase it, but no maps? No concordance? No introductions to the books or cross references? Hmm... I think what is included: song lyrics, the Constitution, Bill of rights and Pledge of Allegiance speaks volumes to the agenda of making readers think America is a central theme in the Bible. I think this goes way beyond a simple money grab to pay for Trump's trials. What's REALLY going on by training up the "American church" to buy this latest installment?
5:08 😂😂😂 bro. He’s been doing this for decades. He sells Chinese made goods as premium grade products. He conceals where its made, he slaps his name on it, and he sells the cheap junk at a premium price. He’s done it for years and years and years.
He bragged how he would bring all the jobs back to the US and for everybody to wear the red Make America Great Again caps to show you're a proud American. Well he's not. The caps are made overseas. What a con man. And he didn't bring any jobs back.
Yep. Trump's customers are literally simps. By the pure definition of simps. They will get ripped off happily, and want more.
All his MAGA hats are made in China. That bible is definitely made there.
Many, many years ago Trump was on David Letterman. Trump was talking about his line of men's ties. Dave would not stop asking Trump where the ties were made. Trump kept changing the subject but Dave didn't let up. Dave just kept asking Trump where the ties were made. Trump was getting madder and madder. Eventually Trump admitted that the ties were made in China. Then Trump said "So what?"
@@gloriadonahue7241 i remember that, he also had that funny stupid look on his face when he was caught.
I agree 100% None of that belongs in a Bible. That is God's book not Trumps.
It’s not god’s book. Don’t be silly! 😂 It was written by many men who thought the world was flat.
Many bibles have commentaries of all kinds. The bible is largely about leaders both good but mostly bad ones . The American founding fathers were almost all Christians and our founding documents are political but based on Christian values.
I'm quessing . . . what?
5th-grade, maybe?
If it will help you a little, you might want to know that this is Greenwald's publication that Trump is promoting.
Who do you think wrote the bible? It wasn't god. Why do you think it is GOD'S book. It is not. Men, just ordinary men, from thousands of years ago wrote this book...500 years later than Christs death. Your facts are erroneous.
I agree with your comment about how the pledge of allegiance does not belong. The Bible says to have no false idols. And to have no other Gods. No oath to anything else belongs in the Bible. I think your review was insightful and right on. Good job.
Whatever happened to separation of church and state?
I'm surprised it didn't burst into flames when trump was holding it!
There is no lower level that Trump wouldn't stoop to in order to achieve his own personal and financial ends because he is just that despicable and unchristian as an individual.
I hope and pray all who like trump will wake up and see how evil he is.
Me too
Got That Right!!!
well, its not a real bible....
The idea that anyone thought the constitution and bill of rights etc. belongs in a Bible just boggles my mind. Thank you so much for taking the time to review this item and give your honest opinion. Hopefully a lot of unsuspecting trusting people will hear of this and not be spending seventy-five dollars on an item worth only $20 at the maximum
Would be nice if they actually would read the constitution.
its sickening! he did it to appeal to his cult minions because no one else is brainwashed enough to buy it
As if the God of all universes, all planets, all countries, and all people somehow favors our little USA!!!
What a weird concept!
And it's not even the WHOLE constitution! They left out everything from the 11th Amendment onward. (The Constitution has 27 Amendments total, as of 1992.)

Revelation 22:18-19:"For I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: If anyone adds to these things, God will add to him the plagues that are written in this book; and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the Book of Life, from the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book."

i.e. books or pages
Thank you for the thorough review. You know that the candy bars that kids sell door-to-door only cost $1, but you pay $20 because it's a fundraiser. This Bible is the same deal.

Something I find interesting is that the Bible pages itself is made of cheap paper, but the words of men are made out of much better quality and glossy pages. lol
Exactly!
Not all Bibles. My Bible is a very high quality Douai version with full page illustrations by Tissot.
This Bible endorsed by Trump is a rip-off, imo. $70 seems a bit steep for the quality.
Great observation. Probably a pre-printed Bible that they just tacked on the extra documents to.
They’re all words by men.
@@goodtroublemaker143Ah, the token atheist who thinks he is somehow smarter than other people!
I am curious why the rest of the Constitutional Amendments were not included (like anti-slavery, women voting, and presidential term limits to name a few).
Agreed. Someone should ask tfg about that...
Tooo woke by far.
Regards from a Tom :)
Go back to sleep, Tom
Because the amendments are the part of the Construction that trump plans on reversing. But he also plans on eliminating the first amendment as well.
Love this video. Thanks!
Not only does it leave out amendments 11 to 27, it eliminates the distinction that the translators made by having the words they added for clarity printed in italics. Plus, the pledge of allegiance is not one of our founding documents, nor the lyrics, which I also enjoy.
I agree with you. Our faith in Christ hasn’t anything to do with our patriotism or our love for our country.

Yes, and your faith has nothing to do with reality.

I disagree wholeheartedly. If you’ve ever read the Old Testament it’s packed full of what you’re saying in your comment. Israel loved and protected their land increasingly. By inserting GOD bless America in the preface isn’t or doesn’t change the word the most HOLY FATHER has given us. But this is only my opinion. 🤷♂️

So you catagorically reject Deuteronomy 4:2. Good to know.
Interesting that the image of the Statue of Liberty is featured on several pages. I wonder if the proud owners of this Trump-endorsed Bible know what's engraved on the statue's pedestal:
. . . “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
I’m guessing here: NO they did not know.
Place your bets…
I wonder if they knew that the technical term for the statue of liberty is a Lucifer …. Light bearer. I am NOT saying it is satanic or demonic. I don’t believe in any of that. Just interesting ….
...and she was built in France
No they do not!
Ps was shipped in pieces and assembled where she stands. I might have missed some staging areas…
Someone should get a troop of bulldozers and write this in mile-size letters across the desert between the U.S. and Mexico (or whatever size is visible on Google Earth) .
Of course, it would eclipse the great Chilean poet Raúl Zurita's 3-kilometer poem, which was dug into the Atacoma Desert in the wake of the Pinochet regime, as the largest poem in the world, but considering the circumstances, I don't think he would mind. The true struggles of the human spirit are not just about competition to be the "biggest" or "best" anyways.
Thanks for the review.
Spot on. I'll stick with my own faith's hardcover Bible.
I wish retailer's would stop shipping books in mailer envelopes, because books easily get damaged in shipping.

Evidently, it does not include the whole US Constitution. It stops at the 10th amendment, it does not include the thirteenth that abolished slavery, and none of the 17 amendments after the Bill of Rights.
That was the original Constitution.
@@princybella5386 Sure, but I've literally never seen anything not include the whole Constitution. Heck, most will have the amended parts crossed out.
It's a very odd choice for something that is supposedly patriotic. It suggests these guys know as little about US Civics as they apparently know about the Bible.
That’s because trump doesn’t follow the constitution OR the Bible.
@@princybella5386except that wasn't the original Constitution. The Bill of rights was the first ten amendments. They were added quickly but they are definitely not original. I understand that the Constitution is often printed with just the Bill of Rights but in a printing that contains many other documents and the lyrics of a song, it does seem like an odd choice.
Its because conservative looneytarian types want everything after 10 removed.

Very good review.... Keep God and His Word First and out of politics.
That commercial struck me right off as just another stunt by Trump. "Look at me. I'm so Christian I am selling a Bible. See, I am holding it in my hands (and it's not burning me)." He has no clue about Scripture. I saw his interview when asked about his faith and the Bible. He completely sidestepped every question.
😂 I love it
Trump has never read a verse in a Bible. He's a false profit idiot and millions believe him which is scary 😢
He couldn't even quote a single scripture. How anyone could believe Trump is a Christian is just mind-boggling.
My late uncle was a proud door-to-door bible salesman. In later years, I learned that he sexually abused his daughters and used to drug his wife so he had all the time he wanted.
Tfg was probably afraid of being stuck down by lightning! 😮😂
Did I see this correctly? For a publication that blatantly violates the separation of church and state (i.e. patriotic documents have absolutely no business in a Bible), it doesn't contain Amendments 11 through 27 of the Constitution?!
The words “separation of Church and State” are not found in the Constitution itself, but the concept is found in the first amendment and the idea permeated both the reasons for the founding of the United States and the ideals of our founding fathers. The words “separation of Church and State” were written by Thomas Jefferson, but not found in the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, or the Declaration of Independence. However, our Founding Fathers would not have questioned this. Freedom of religion was the man reason they fled British tyranny, a nation led by the unelected leader of the Church of England.
It would only violate the 1st Amendment (the basis for the seperation fo church and state), the government would have to be studying it. The publisher, Trump and Greenwood are all private citizens and can publish anything they want. A lot of people use the 1st 10 amendments because they were originally part of the constitution in order to get it ratified.
Making a deal out of not having the rest is getting a little unreasonable.
The "separation of church and state" phrase alluded to prohibiting an official state religion - not the discouragement of spirituality in American lives.
@@RichardChappell1 *"A lot of people use the 1st 10 amendments because they were originally part of the constitution in order to get it ratified."*
