"The day God Intervened July 18, 2024" That makes me fucking sick. What a pretentious asswipe.

[-] Vorticity@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

Do you know what July 18th 2024 is referring to? I can't figure it out.

[-] golli@lemm.ee 18 points 2 months ago

I think it's a 13 not 18 and references the assassination attempt

[-] Vorticity@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Thank you! That was bugging me!

What an asshole, putting that on bibles... He really is the biggest narssissist in the history of the world, isn't he?

July ~~18~~ 13 was the assassination attempt.

The article got it right

A version of the $59.99 Bible memorializes the July 13 assassination attempt on the former president in Pennsylvania. Trump’s name is on the cover above the phrase, “The Day God Intervened.” The wording appears to have been stamped on after the Bible was produced. Trump said Saturday his would-be assassin did not succeed “by the hand of providence and the grace of God.”

It's so weird how the right just forgets that, hey, maybe that's blasphemy? I'm not religious, but the strangest thing is that rather than critically evaluate a claim that someone is hand-picked by god, that's acceptable to them.

The fact that Trump gets primacy over their religious beliefs is telling. It supports that Trump isn't winning their vote because he's tied himself to their religion - he's co-opted and replaced their religion.

Plus it’s version of the US Constitution is missing several Amendments.

Really? Wtf

Go on those Chinese e-commerce stores like Temu and it would blast Trump merch nonstop. Not because they support Trump, but because grifters buying this shit in bulk to sell and making a lot of Chinese companies rich.

[-] some_guy 11 points 2 months ago

Of course they were.

Get you some False Idol versions of the Holy Bible, blessed by the signature of a hateful non-Christian opportunist, manufactured by the "communists" he constantly stokes fear around.

[-] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 months ago

in case anyone's STILL not convinced that trumpism is a cult

[-] BigMacHole@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

So? That's just GOOD Business! But HUNTER BIDEN!

[-] taiyang@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

God it's so depressing thinking that someone in China is having to make this shit day in and day out. It's enough to radicalize me if I knew English enough to know what these were for.

When you can get them for a few pennies, why not? International consumer markets demand the fast-fashion equivalent of political props. In a year, they'll all be in dumpsters and landfills and we'll be getting a new batch of "DeSantis Constitutions" or "John Thune Zen Koans" or some other stupid bullshit.

[-] aubeynarf@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 2 months ago

I don’t think consumers demand this - the Trump campaign operators do

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

To hand out at events where he campaigns and to sell in merch stores that MAGA lovers frequent.

[-] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

And to Oklahoma schools.
