These will be historical mementos of this time in our history. I’m guessing Trump will go down as one of the greatest Presidents in our History - and the stories of the attacks and his many ways of overcoming them will be legends...

So the money isn’t going to the Trump campaign, but to Trumps entity CIC Ventures, LLC. So Trump himself gets the money, not his campaign.

The money goes to a Trump owned entity, so ultimately Trump does get money from this Bible selling.

That’s ridiculous. With that rationale, if there is a FR user “trump”, you’d be saying Donald Trump joined free republic

With your rationale, Trump won’t get any money from the Truth Social IPO.

60 bucks for a leather bound bible is pretty reasonable

“The money goes to a Trump owned entity, so ultimately Trump does get money from this Bible selling.”

It is my understanding that it’s a collaboration by Lee Greenwood using Trump’s name and endorsement to buy said Bible. So my question is, where is your proof that the “entity” is owned by Trump? According to this link, Trump doesn’t own it as you claimed. Truth matters.

““GodBlessTheUSABible.com is not owned, managed or controlled by Donald J. Trump, The Trump Organization, CIC Ventures LLC or any of their respective principals or affiliates,” it says.”

“Large-print King James edition — an apparent collaboration with country singer Lee Greenwood — comes bound with texts of Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights and Pledge of Allegiance”

Sorry, but... that’s a completely different matter. Truth Social is Trump’s baby and therefore, it is legal and right for him to get the $$$ profits from it.

Truth Social is now a public company so profits go to the shareholders or remain with the company. They don’t go to Trump except as dividends.

And are you saying that Trump doesn’t own CIC Ventures, LLC, which is making money through the sale of these Bibles pursuant to a
licensing agreement? Sorry, but he does and is.

Yes, but... dividends = profits. Ergo, my point stands.

“And are you saying that Trump doesn’t own CIC Ventures, LLC, which is making money through the sale of these Bibles pursuant to a licensing agreement? Sorry, but he does and is.”

No, I’m saying that according to what I’ve read and seen... he has no connection to the sale of these bibles other than he is endorsing them. If you have proof showing otherwise, I would be interested in seeing it. Thanks.

Yes. Yes it is.

That is not what was posted. The poster said that they “googled” it.

DJT has been a ticker symbol for 24 hours (not counting when it listed 40 years ago or so).

Googling is very different than entering the symbol in a ticker search. DJT being used for the ticker of the Dow Jones Transport has been used for more than 50 years. If you enter it at the NY Stock Exchange, you will get the Transport index.

It’s not a simple or obvious as some people think.

This is the problem, Trump is trying to raise money, but he’s licensed out all of these companies which pick the most opportune times to advertise, using his name, siphoning off money for their products that could instead be used for donations to him.

I tried to order the Bible. Their website appears to be broken.

You can read many different versions of the Bible for free at biblegateway.com.

Senile old fool. Who changes your diaper while you pretend to day trade? Post your CV, see who is impressed. Didn’t know DJT was Trump’s ticker symbol. FR sure attracts a lot of losers.

I have several English translations as paper copies (including the KJV), along with a copy of the Septuagint, the Greek New Testament, the Latin translation of the New Testament, and a Spanish translation.
