Donald Trump is now in the business of selling Bibles, according to an announcement made Tuesday.
Trump announced the partnership with country music singer Lee Greenwood, best known for his song “God Bless the USA”. The pair is selling a custom version of the Bible for $59.99, called the “God Bless the USA Bible,” which was previously announced in 2021 by Greenwood but then fell to the wayside after hitting snafus with publishing.
“All Americans need a Bible in their home, and I have many. It’s my favorite book,” Trump said in a video posted on social media “It’s a lot of peoples’ favorite book.”
“We have to bring Christianity back into our lives and into what will be again a great nation,” Trump said. “Our Founding Fathers did a tremendous thing when they built America on Judeo-Christian values. Now that foundation is under attack, perhaps as never before.”
The announcement comes as Trump is embroiled in several legal battles, leaving him reportedly strapped for cash. He recently posted a $91 million bond as he appeals a jury award in a defamation case and, on Monday a New York state appeals court ruling imposed an additional $175 million bond while he appeals a civil fraud verdict against him. He will owe another $354 million plus interest if he loses the appeal.
What is the ‘God Bless the USA Bible’?
The “God Bless the USA Bible” is a version of the Christian bible “inspired by Lee Greenwood’s patriotic anthem ‘God Bless the USA,'” according to the official God Bless The UA Bible website.
Touting itself as the “only Bible endorsed by President Trump” and Greenwood himself, it incorporates copies of American political documents and Greenwood’s song lyrics into the Christian Bible.
A “spotlight” section on the website shows other conservative personalities posing with a copy of the bible, including Tomi Lahren, Donal Trump Jr., Rita Cosby, Travis Tritt and Gov. Mike Huckabee.
According to the website, “high order volume” means customers will have to wait four to six weeks for delivery.
