Biden: I almost wanted to buy Trump Bible ‘just to see what the hell’s in it’

[Social Media]

 

President Biden took aim at former President Trump during a visit to Florida, mocking Trump's recent promotion of Bibles and criticizing his stance on abortion. In his speech, Biden directly linked Trump to the recent Supreme Court decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, attributing the move to Trump's influence on the court through his appointments. Referring to the Dobbs decision, which effectively ended Roe v. Wade, Biden highlighted Trump's characterization of it as a "miracle."

 

"He described the Dobbs decision as a miracle," Biden remarked, before humorously alluding to Trump's promotion of Bibles. "Maybe it’s coming from that Bible he’s trying to sell. I almost wanted to buy one just to see what the hell’s in it," he added, eliciting laughter from the audience.

 

Biden went on to criticize the politicization of the Supreme Court under Trump's tenure, suggesting that Trump had struck a deal with the evangelical base of the Republican Party to secure their support in exchange for his commitment to appointing anti-abortion justices.

 

Trump had promoted "God Bless the USA" Bibles ahead of Easter, urging his supporters to purchase the $60 Bibles named after the Lee Greenwood song frequently played at his rallies. Although Trump was not personally selling the Bibles, reports indicated that he was receiving royalties from their sales.

 

While Trump has often positioned himself as a defender of Christian values, his promotion of the Bibles during Holy Week drew criticism from some conservatives who viewed it as commodifying a sacred religious text.

 

Biden's remarks underscored the ongoing political and ideological divisions in the United States, particularly on issues such as abortion and religion. As the country grapples with these contentious issues, Biden's comments served as a reminder of the stark differences between the two administrations and their approaches to governance.

There is a certain sect of US Christians that are notorious for their greed.  Won't name them because I've never had any dealings with them myself. 

Yesterday I heard a pundit on a US channel remark that since the pornstar money trial began DT has been averaging donations app. US$1 million per day.  Not bad.  If he sacked all the lawyers and did his own defense (he could do it, he has a very good mind, he said so himself) he could keep the money for himself: excellent idea, I'm all for it.

 

Trump to GOP campaigns: If you use my name to raise money, I want a 5% cut

"Beginning tomorrow, we ask that all candidates and committees who choose to use President Trump's name, image, and likeness split a minimum of 5% of all fundraising solicitations to Trump National Committee JFC," the Trump campaign wrote in a letter to GOP vendors this week, according to POLITICO.

 

See?  Takes a very good mind to come up with that!

Trump is street smart. His followers are not smart as they easily fall for his lies and scams.

Here another gem from Biden. The guy is witty and intelligent. Can’t say the same of his opponent who is hateful and  a fu…moron according to his own Sec of State.

 

He said: "Just the other day this defeated looking man came up to me and said: 'Mr. President I need your help. I'm in crushing debt. I'm completely wiped out.'"

Biden said he then responded: "Donald, I'm sorry. I can't help you."

[bamnutsak]

THE PRESIDENT:  His words, not mine. 
 
He described the Dobbs decision as a “miracle.”  Maybe it’s coming from that Bible he’s trying to sell.  (Laughter.)  Whoa.  I almost wanted to buy one just to see what the hell is in it.  (Laughter.)

I like how he crossed himself after this comment.

 

 

Another good zinger... (on the four-year anniversary of trump's legendary presser where he talked about injecting bleach)

Biden is certainly very busy on the campaign trail, visiting multiple states in one day, and making multiple visits in each stop.

Why does Biden always have to talk like some uneducated trailer park trash?

 

Is it some kind of "salt of the earth" schtick he has going on?

 

He's supposed to be Presidential. 

 

Was he raised in some backwater or something? Oh, wait a minute...

I guess you like Trailer Trash trump because he wants to be like royalty, but royalty is not a US thing. We don't want to be a loser country with inbreds like yours.

 

It that photo one of your country's royal family?

[Walker88]

Not so surprising that the clown trump, who had peaceful protesters violently removed from Lafayette Park just so he could go hold a Bible upside down for a photo op, would have done absolutely nothing when extremely violent protesters attacked the US Capitol at his urging, injured 140 police officers, and set up a gallows to hang trump's own Vice President.

The Russian judge gives you 8.5 for this Triple-reverse double Delfection.

 

Points were deducted for lack of comprehension of the phrase "trailer trash", and use of a photo of your relative.

Trump Speaks At Fourth-Grade Level, Lowest Of Last 15 U.S. Presidents, New Analysis Finds

President Donald Trump—who boasted over the weekend that his success in life was a result of "being, like, really smart"—communicates at the lowest grade level of the last 15 presidents, according to a new analysis of the speech patterns of presidents going back to Herbert Hoover.

The analysis assessed the first 30,000 words each president spoke in office, and ranked them on the Flesch-Kincaid grade level scale and more than two dozen other common tests analyzing English-language difficulty levels. Trump clocked in around mid-fourth grade, the worst since Harry Truman, who spoke at nearly a sixth-grade level.

You think an insult is a valid substitute for facts? Typical. Thanks, mini-Trump.
