Establishment Media, Left Attack Donald Trump for Promoting Bibles

Notoriously anti-Trump establishment media and some far-left, anti-Trump Republicans are attacking former President Donald Trump for promoting “God bless the American Bible.” America needs to “defend all that is close to God” and “pray again.”

playing cards partnered Along with Lee Greenwood, an American country artist perhaps best known for “God Bless the USA,” he encouraged Americans to purchase the King James Bible. The website says it features copies of the United States’ founding documents, including the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and Declaration of Independence, as well as the Pledge of Allegiance and “a handwritten chorus of ‘God Bless The USA’ by Lee Greenwood.” That’s what it means. .

In a video message on Truth Social, President Trump held up a Bible and announced that he was “proud” to partner with Greenwood on the Bible, adding that he hoped “many people” would pick it up.

“It’s very sad what’s happening in our country, but we’re going to turn this around. Religion and Christianity are the biggest thing that’s missing in this country,” Trump said. “We must get them back as soon as possible,” he said.

President Trump said he believes the lack of religion in this country is “one of the biggest problems we have.”

“That’s why our country is in shambles. We’ve lost religion in our country. Every American needs a Bible in their home, and I have a lot.” President Trump spoke, calling the Bible his “favorite book.”

“It’s my favorite book. It’s a book that’s loved by a lot of people. This Bible teaches us that the biggest thing we have to take back in order to make America great again is our religion.” “It’s a reminder: Religion is very important,” he said, predicting it would come back “strongly.”

After all, we don’t answer to bureaucrats in Washington. We answer to the God of heaven. Christians are under siege. We must protect content that leans on God. Because we love God, we must protect anything that is contrary to God. We must protect God and the public square, and we must not allow the media or left-wing groups to silence, censor, or discriminate against us.

President Trump said it was imperative to “bring Christianity back into our lives and make our country great again,” honoring the Founding Fathers who built America on Judeo-Christian values. praised.

“Please stand up, speak up and pray that God will bless America again. I am proud to support and encourage you to get this Bible. “We must pray. Pray. Get educated. Be motivated and stand with me and the legions of Americans as we seek God’s blessing to restore our greatness,” he continued. He urged Americans to purchase a Bible to “help spread our Christian values ​​to others.”

As expected, Trump’s promotion of the $59.99 Bible drew significant criticism from leftists and establishment media.

Comments from the far left salon.com “Trump’s Bible makes a mockery of Christianity. That’s why MAGA eats up the Bible,” he claimed.

“Their new ruler is Trump himself,” the article said readmocking Christian Trump supporters as idiots.

“His message is ‘kick down your neighbor’ and ‘build your wall,’ so he’s more interesting to the red hats. Frankly, most of them don’t care about the peace and charity nonsense. “I’m sure it’s a huge relief to no longer have to pretend it never happened,” the commentary reads.

of washington post jumped off President Trump has “never shied away from using his name and likeness to make money,” he said, pointing to digital trading cards, sneakers and cologne, adding that “this period has made him personally enriched.” I’m trying to do that,” he claimed. He is facing a lack of funds amid legal problems. ”

As Breitbart News report After the Trump Media & Technology Group (TMTG) completed its merger on Tuesday, Trump’s wealth reached $6 billion, making him one of the top 500 richest people in the world.

Axios concluded President Trump has capitalized on Christianity, and the mainstream media ironically claims to understand when the opposite is clearly true, but to portray that image as a “powerful “as a rhetorical device,” Mother Jones said. put Do it like this:

For the rest of the video, as if to instill collective disgust in us, President Trump seizes every opportunity to rail against officials and the country under threat, all the while promoting holy scripture. was.

But his latest sales pitch also raised some legitimate questions. What the hell is going on? And: Excuse me? Here we will try to answer some questions.

MSNBC Said Bible propaganda is ‘latest item on list of nasties’, says far-left Al Sharpton concluded President Trump’s Bible propaganda is offensive.

Co-host: Alyssa Farrar Griffin, former aide to President Trump sceneryexpressed disgust at President Trump selling $59.99 Bibles, pointing To Christians who are persecuted around the world.

The criticism didn’t end there, with several anti-Trump figures venting their anger.

The anti-Trump Lincoln Project says, “Serial fraudsters, criminals, and sinners are spreading the latest favors to cover hundreds of millions in legal fees. It’s as if Trump never read a page of the Bible in his life. “It’s like,” he said before insulting Trump’s base. .

“And the saddest thing? Yet people who smoke MAGA still fall for it,” added one as others jumped in.

The outrage over President Trump encouraging Americans to own the Bible comes after many on the left expressed outrage over Trump sharing a note from one of his supporters. And some are drawing parallels between the former president’s ongoing legal battle and the persecution of Jesus Christ. But its supporters also shared Psalm 109:3-8. The entire psalm is a cry for help to God, beginning with:

O God of my praise, do not be silent! For an evil and deceitful mouth has been opened against me, and a lying tongue speaks against me. They surround me with hateful words and attack me for no reason. In return for my love, I dedicate myself to prayer, although they condemn me. So they reward evil for good, and hatred for my love.

As detailed by Breitbart News, “Verses 26-31 continue as David turns to the Lord for help and appeals to Jehovah’s steadfast love, a common theme throughout the Bible.” It ends with giving thanks and praising the Lord “in the midst of the crowd.”

Trump himself has made no comparisons to Jesus, commenting that a supporter’s notes are “beautiful” and, as Breitbart News has revealed, expressing the ultimate need to reconcile humanity with God. The suffering and sacrifice of Jesus is certainly unparalleled:

That aside, it’s worth noting that Jesus told his disciples, “And you will be hated by everyone for my name’s sake,” and they faced various kinds of persecution. He warned his disciples not to be surprised.

Jesus tells His followers in John 15, “If the world hates you, know that it hated Me before it hated you.”

…

So while Trump has received backlash for sharing this post, the comparison seems to point not to the scripture itself, but to the commentary Trump shared by his supporters. Regardless of the controversy, there is precedent in the Bible that sets the pattern for doing the right thing and expecting backlash.

This is not the first time President Trump has faced criticism regarding the Bible; in 2020, during the civil unrest, Trump walked through Lafayette Park and held up a Bible in front of the historic St. John’s Cathedral, sparking backlash. It is a famous story that he was invited. A church set on fire by protesters.
