LOL, shameless grifting from the godless heathen Mannonites. If Christians actually gave a fuck about their religion, they’d burn these grifters on a stake. Instead, they allow Mannonite “baptists” and white nationalist infidels to parade around with their symbols while simultaneously blaspheming Jesus and co-opting Pagan ideologies.

Well, wouldn’t you know who won the pony - the only Bible that meets the criteria established by the state is the one Trump has been selling.


Well, there’s a $3.3 million boost for the trump campaign. Or they will simply not ship them in the first place, and pocket the money. “They’ll be delivered in two weeks!”

I'm really hoping the Church of Satan puts in a bid. How hard would it be for them get some bibles printed. They could also throw in Jefferson's letter about separation of church and state.

The Oklahoma taxpayer will be fleeced. Trumps "The God Bless the U.S.A." Bible sells for $60 online, while the Trump-backed "We the People" bible sells for $90. Oklahoma could get all the King James Bibles it wants from the Gideons. The same folks who put Bibles in hotel rooms and other places. They have King James and a few other versions. And they’re free. I'm sure the Gideons would be happy to take a donation, but if you have nothing to give, or simply choose not to give, they’re happy to give you Bibles anyway. But Oklahoma requires those American political documents be included that only Trump Bibles have. Lol! ... A fool and his money.

Dammit. Fuck it. What's the requirements? Can we get an AT Forums Bible printed? We can all fork out some of the money to get it started. Because if there's gonna be fleecing of stupid bible thumpers, we may as well get in on the action. Because the idiots are begging to be screwed, and I'd rather be a giver than a taker.

I don’t know if it’s true but it feels like 80% of the people who sell maga merch are just immoral liberals who want easy money and see Trump supporters as a cash cow.

Agreed. But it's just so idiotic, which is why I posted that comment. You'd think hundreds of magats in a group would have two whole brain cells to rub together.

People who hate themselves will go to any end to make themselves feel self important. I mean reviving the religion of brutal savages, how cool can that be?

Trump bible, printed in China for about $3/ea, but sells for $60/ea.

Trump, as usual, is a lying sack of hypocritical shit. Fomenting Asian hate, by using the China boogeyman, but when it comes to grifting, China is who he turns to. Cause F the American public, and F the American workers, when it comes to profit, that's all that matters.

The article only confirms what we suspected of the Trump bible. Given Trump's past history of grifting, there was a 99.99% chance this was just another grift. This basically cements it.

You're thinking of The Satanic Temple, the Church of Satan doesn't engage in political activism, they're the "fuck you, got mine" branch of Satanism.

And therein lies the rub. When a horde of magats gather up, they're doing it to protect their herd from being infected with a barrage Constitutionally supported "propaganda" that threatens their belief in all the lies and disinformation they hold reverence to, especially if it came straight from God's personally selected messenger here on earth, signified by the orange glowing halo mysteriously floating above his equally mysterious coiffed comb over.

@hal2kilo I did give Trump the benefit of a doubt with a 0.01% chance that it wasn't a grift. And that was being generous.

The Oklahoma State Supervisor announced that the bible is a historical document and that each classroom will be required to have a bible in the classroom and teach from the bible.



When I first read this I was hoping it was something from The Onion, unfortunately it is not.

I can see some non-christian parents grouping together and launching a court case against this decision.

That's awful, but as an aside to almost anyone who works professionally, or might be job seeking--get the hell off social media. Unless you are only posting about giving food to orphaned baby deer or something, no good can come from being on there.

Especially in one of the shit states run by asshats like bro just above ^.
Wellll.... there is LinkedIn for those looking for a job.... so that could be the exception in social media.

I’m sure Trump laments the fact that Russia couldn’t do it. The Religious Right has been pulling this Christianity in Schools since I remember going back to the 80s. But they’ve now given up on that, and are instead trying to pull the "Cult of Trump" in Schools. Feel for these indoctrinated children of Oklahoma.

FFS you're so fucking gaslit you're still "this basically cements it", uh, no, literally everything Turmp sells is a grift. No "basically" about it, it all is. Its all bullshit. We're so fucked that even when he's slapping his Christian sex toy in your face you still can't just be "fuck this piece of shit".

I'm really starting to believe that some of you really are just beta cucks desperately wishing you could just get over your hangups and start sucking Republican dicks openly. Cause goddamn, what more would it take for you to stop couching things more than JD Vance "well he's probably scamming" like no fucking shit dude. Its all scams. Stop being NYT an WaPo, running cover for this shit by using such language. Call it what it fucking is and, ugh, stop playing so dumb even after the fact. You just sound like you're doing the apolitical clown dance or I don't even know what to fucking call your milquetoast bitchass response. Its like you're proud that you were like "well maybe Turmp won't take a shit in my mouth, now let me just go up and put my mouth under his ass" and then gives a cartoon shrug after he shits in your mouth. Except this is the equivalent of you then putting his dirty diaper on your head like its a dunce cap and smiling.

Then again, that you would somehow view this as not a scam if he he'd had Americans making this shit is, fucking stupid too. At what point will you fucking wisen up and stop just guzzling this endless shit?

@hal2kilo I did give Trump the benefit of a doubt with a 0.01% chance that it wasn't a grift. And that was being generous.

Your brain is fucking broken. You sound like Duh-bya, fool me once herp a derp, fool me, fool durr hur, you won't fool me again! Fucking christ man. I bet Turmp could shoot you in the street and you'd be like "well he probably wasn't trying to shoot me, and like, well, maybe the gun just wasn't good enough to be held by such a mighty man".
