Thousands of Trump's "God Bless the USA" Bibles Printed in China Sparks Debate
Thousands of Trump's

Thousands of copies of Donald Trump’s "God Bless the USA" Bible were printed in China, a country Trump has frequently criticized for its trade practices and impact on American jobs. Records show that approximately 120,000 copies of the Bible were shipped from a Chinese printing company in Hangzhou to the United States between February and March. The total value of these shipments was estimated at $342,000, or less than $3 per Bible, though the retail price is set at $59.99.

Trump partnered with country singer Lee Greenwood to promote the Bible, which features the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, and the Pledge of Allegiance. In a video posted on his social media platform, Trump emphasized the importance of religion in making America "great again," urging people to purchase the Bible.

Although Trump did not disclose the production details or the profits from the Bible sales, his name and image are licensed through CIC Ventures, a company he owns. According to financial disclosures, CIC Ventures earned $300,000 from Bible sales royalties.

Critics have raised concerns about the mixing of religion and politics, with some religious scholars and ministers calling the combination of Scripture and U.S. historical documents a "toxic mix." Others pointed out the poor quality of the Bibles, suggesting that profit may be prioritized over values.

Trump has been vocal about his opposition to China’s role in the global economy but continues to engage in profitable business ventures, including selling the China-printed Bibles. This apparent contradiction between his political rhetoric and personal business dealings has drawn scrutiny from various quarters.
