Friend,
We thought he hit rock bottom when
he tried selling steaks in a mall gadget store. But no, he has an even
more shameless business idea. As far as his latest grifts go, it’s
worse than the “golden” shoes, the stinky cologne, or the
NFTs.
As of yesterday, Donald J. Trump,
the same man who is currently in court over cheating on his wife with
an adult film star and then paying her off, has started selling
branded Bibles.
This clearly means two
things:
1. Trump’s desperate and needs cash
any way he can get it.
2. He has literally zero respect
for the vast majority of his Evangelical base (and is just using them
as an ATM.)
Nonetheless, Trump claims his goal
here is to “make America pray again”. We guess that explains why he’s
charging the low price of $59.99 per Bible, plus shipping. Could this
plan be any easier to figure out? Is it possible that people don’t see
right through this? The answer is yes. His most faithful supporters
don’t see this as an obvious grift aimed at paying off his massive
debt to the state of New York.
Remember how George Santos accused
the GOP of “standing for nothing and falling for everything?” We know
this isn’t what he meant – but this is exactly what it is.
If this guy is willing to monetize
God, he won’t think twice about monetizing this country. He’ll come
in, pardon himself and his insurrectionist buddies, see what the
government can do for his failing businesses, and then sell off what’s
left of America for parts.
Trump has no shame. He doesn’t care
about anything besides money. Not people, not religion, and certainly
not America’s future. He’s a snake oil salesman, a charlatan, and a
hack.
We can’t risk him turning this
country into another one of his failed ventures. Help
us make sure American democracy isn’t the target of his next get rich
quick scheme>>
