Donald Trump recently announced a partnership with country music star Lee Greenwood to promote a line of pricey Bibles called the “God Bless the U.S.A. Bible” on Truth Social. This move has sparked controversy and raised questions about the former president’s motives behind this business deal.
In the video announcing the partnership, Trump emphasized the importance of religion and Christianity in America. He claimed that the country is missing these elements and that bringing them back is crucial to solving many of the nation’s problems. Trump’s view on the importance of religion in American society has been a recurring theme throughout his political career.
The “God Bless the U.S.A. Bible” is priced at $59.99, which is significantly higher than the average cost of a Bible. The Bible includes additional features such as a copy of Greenwood’s hit song “God Bless the U.S.A.,” the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the Declaration of Independence, and the Pledge of Allegiance. It is marketed as the only Bible endorsed by both Trump and Greenwood, adding a unique selling point to the product.
While it is not clear how much money Trump and Greenwood will make from this business deal, it comes at a time when Trump is facing financial challenges. With civil judgments totaling hundreds of millions of dollars against him and a fundraising operation that is falling behind his political rivals, Trump’s involvement in the Bible partnership raises questions about his financial motives.
Despite Trump’s political background, the website selling the Trump-backed Bibles emphasizes that none of the proceeds will go towards Trump’s political campaign. It states that the website is not political and has no affiliation with the Trump campaign or any related entities. This distinction is crucial in order to maintain the integrity of the Bible partnership and prevent any accusations of using the sales for political gain.
The partnership between Donald Trump and Lee Greenwood to promote the “God Bless the U.S.A. Bible” raises questions about the intersection of religion, politics, and business. Trump’s emphasis on the importance of religion in America, combined with the financial implications of the partnership, adds a layer of complexity to this already controversial collaboration. As the Bible continues to be marketed to consumers, the true impact of this business deal remains to be seen.
