“”The Mormons use the KJV as their Bible and officially consider it sacred scripture. This is definitely leftists and not devout LDS members.””

Not really, they use it for public relations but only as far as they accept that it interprets SOME of God’s word accurately and doesn’t disagree with their true holy book, the Book of Mormon.

As the Mormons teach
“Latter-day Saints believe in an open scriptural canon, which means that there are other books of scripture besides the Bible (such as the Book of Mormon) and that God continues to reveal His word through living prophets. The argument is often made that to be a Christian means to assent to the principle of sola scriptura, or the self-sufficiency of the Bible. But to claim that the Bible is the final word of God—more specifically, the final written word of God—is to claim more for the Bible than it claims for itself.”

Notice I said “officially”. I’m not saying they actually adhere to it, just that their “official” and public position is that it’s part of Scripture.
