Trump Now Sells the 'Trump Bible'... How Much Does It Cost?
Sales and Promotion Through Homepage
Price $60... Featuring the 'Seongjogi' Design
Former President Donald Trump, who is busy raising funds for his presidential campaign, has now started selling 'Bibles' directly. The price is $60 (about 80,000 KRW). Some analysts suggest that Trump’s team is facing serious financial difficulties.
Foreign media such as The Guardian reported on the 26th (local time) that an advertisement for the Bible appeared on Trump’s social media platform, Truth Social.

In the advertisement, former President Trump says in a video message, "I have partnered with my good friend Lee Greenwood," adding, "Doesn’t everyone love his song 'God Bless the USA'? So we decided to promote it together with the 'God Bless the USA' Bible."
Lee Greenwood is an American country singer who performed his signature song at Trump’s campaign rallies. The Bible is currently being sold on his official website. The price is $59.99, and the cover features the American flag along with the phrase "God Bless the USA."
However, the website states that the Bible "has no political affiliation and is not related to any political campaign," and claims that "the Bible is neither managed nor owned by Donald J. Trump." It adds that "Trump’s name and image are used under license from CIC Ventures."
Foreign media pointed out that CIC Ventures is "a corporation established in 2021 by a Florida-based lawyer who is a political ally of former President Trump." They also noted that the company’s headquarters are located at Trump’s golf resort.
Some believe that former President Trump is feeling pressure to raise funds for the presidential election. His presidential rival, U.S. President Joe Biden, raised nearly $53 million (about 71.2 billion KRW) in February alone.
Trump’s Republican National Committee raised $40 million (about 5.37 billion KRW) as of the end of January. However, a significant portion of the funds has been spent on legal fees, leaving little money available for the election. Trump has been criminally indicted four times on 88 charges, including the leak of classified documents, and has lost two consecutive civil lawsuits.
