The Adulterer's Bible

Facing trial for covering up adultery with a porn star (while his wife was pregnant), Donald Trump is selling personally-endorsed Bibles to raise money for his legal expenses.  Also found liable for defaming a woman whom he sexually abused (i.e. raped), the Republican nominee for President was already financially stressed by a host of criminal indictments.

While I am not one to defend or sympathize with organized religions, I would think that Trump's Bible sale is a sacrilegious act in the eyes of American Christians, especially his Evangelical base.

Nonetheless, those devoted to Trump are clearly unfazed by any action he might take, however dark, criminal or insincere.  By doing so, they demonstrate the hypocrisy of religious zealotry itself.
