Felons and sinners are afraid they will burn their hand if they touch the bible. But he’s still going to sell it to some stupid magat as the official swearing-in bible. #FFOTUS
And yet, his religious cult following will say it's OK. But if any other person didn't, cult would scream it's not official and unAmerican. The hypocrisy and excuses are mind-boggling.
I mean, using a bible for an oath is a pretty dumb idea in the first place, it kind of goes against separation of church and state, but thats just my atheist opinion. carry on.
What spirit? They had it there because they had no idea why a bible was used in the first place. He has absolutely no redeeming qualities, much less cozy with spirits.
While we're at it, if it's the one he published with Lee Greenwood, it absolutely wouldn't surprise me if there's something in the pleather cover that would give a person a nasty rash.
Yes, and constitutionally, it doesn’t have to be a bible…or anything at all. Apparently, Trump used the Lincoln bible and a family one that his mother gave him.
I abhor the man, but this is not a fight to pick. It is not required to swear on a bible. It’s optional- even if you aren’t an atheist. It’s not your book if you’re Hindu or Shinto or many Native Americans, or Druid…. Besides, who cares? Clearly, reading a bible doesn’t make one a good person.
Oh, this guy has got to be impeached or something. This is awful. He didn’t place his hand on his heart at Carter’s funeral, and now, Melania’s holding a Bible for no reason. Oh, this is mot good, not good at all.
This is interesting. I think Trump is afraid of dying and facing judgment.
He knows his time on this earth is limited.
A 236-year tradition down the drain.
Probably doesn't want to push the envelope of his Faustian deal by swearing on the Bible before committing acts of sin and retribution. Burning in hell takes any forms. 🤣
Likely for fear he would be struck by lightening or burst into flames. It's quite possible this is the blob's version of crossing his fingers behind his back. #NeverSayIDidntTellYouSo #DefendDemocracy #EndCitizensUnited #TaxTheRich #CodifyRoe #FightFascism
Meh, I doubt there are many who believe he has any intention of keeping his oath of office. He certainly found some forceful ways to break it last time.
Religion is the last thing we should be clinging to to go against him. It’s a huge part of the reason we’re in this mess. Sooner yall let that shit go the better off you’ll be.
Meanwhile, there will be numerous litigation for the next four years for religious freedom, freedom of speech, equality, etc., and this tiny tiny tyrant wouldn’t put his hand on the Bible after he recreated it, charged $69.99, and kids in red states will be required to read it.
I still don't know why all you folks haven't used a clip of Trump literally saying to a group of evangelical pastors; "I'm not a Chrisitan, I love you christians".. The only time I've ever seen trump tell the truth. Why wasn't that short clip of him saying; "I'm not a Christian" played everywhere?!
The Asbestos Bible didn't arrive in time, and given Trump's deep respect for the Fire Code, he chose not to touch a traditionally produced Bible as it would have burst into flames
.
What does this tell you when he didn't place his hand on the Holly Bible that he once sold it to people for a price and now he doesn't put his hand on it, to me that evil
Look at the expressions of those around him. Even his own deranged family knows this country fucked and are horrified at how far they were willing to go for power.
He definitely does not respect the Bible or any other Holy scriptures, nor does he respect his followers unless he can get something in return. He is not any different than al the other oligarchs who are kneeling before him. They, too, are doing just that because they can gain hugely.

Hopefully he was afraid of supernatural retribution.
Jus means he didn't take an oath...
Ax Milania (Judge Doom) bout that shit
He has no intention of keeping his oath and Roberts is one of his body guards.
religious nut jobs who support him
will say …..
Most likely some dumbass excuse.
He knows his time on this earth is limited.

So sure of himself he’s Devine
He is so sure of himself infallible disease
Elon Musk's little nazi was peeking out from his unzipped pants as he did his nazi salute.
Just an observation…🤔
“Are you at Old Testament or New Testament guy”
Trump: “probably equal”
“Can you name a verse”
Trump: “no”
