“Religion and Christianity are the two things this country lacks the most,” says the Republican candidate in a three-minute video published on his Truth Social network, in the middle of Holy Week.
In this publication, the former leader, who has increased his appeals to evangelical circles since his election in 2016, encourages his supporters to obtain these bibles, sold for $59.99 per copy.
“We must restore America’s faith,” he says – a nod to the emblematic slogan of his presidential campaigns, “Make America Great Again.”
On its site, the group offering this sacred book for sale congratulates itself on being “the only Bible promoted by Donald Trump!”
The organization specifies that none of the revenue obtained from these bibles will be used to finance the campaign of the Republican, candidate for the presidential election in November.
But it indicates that the former president’s image is used as part of a paid partnership.
These Bibles are sold in collaboration with the famous conservative musician Lee Greenwood, whose hit “God Bless the USA” punctuates each of Donald Trump’s rallies.
On Tuesday, the former real estate mogul also applauded the successful launch of his social network on the stock market.
“I love Truth Social, I love the truth,” he said, hailing the success of the shares on the Nasdaq.
Donald Trump was widely criticized by religious leaders in 2020 after posing in front of a defaced church, a Bible in hand, the day after anti-racist demonstrations.
