President-elect Trump’s endorsement video for the “God Bless the USA Inauguration Day Bible” looks like a "Saturday Night Live" parody. Still, some Trump supporters are buying them, while others yell “blasphemy!” But in general, Americans are repulsed by the mixing of religion and politics to sell copies of the scriptures.

The Bible costs $69.99 and is “available until January 19.” The edition that “contains President Donald J. Trump’s Hand-Signed Signature” is $1,000, with “Only 1000 Available! While Supplies Last!”

I asked a MAGA insider if he thought Trump would take the oath of office with his right hand on an Inauguration Day Bible. “I hope so,” he replied.

Whether the brand-conscious new president will turn his swearing-in into a marketing event is unknown. However, Trump successfully turned his first assassination attempt into a fundraising bonanza and previously had monetized his mug shot at the Fulton, Georgia, county jail. So anything is possible on Jan. 20.

The “God Bless the USA Bibles,” which also “contain America’s founding documents,” ironically, are printed in China. An AP report estimated the production cost at $3.00 each, but expect a price increase after Trump’s forthcoming tariffs on Chinese imports.

The Trump Bible is just one of many products on what should be called “President Trump’s Home Shopping Network.” Among his “endorsed” featured items are the sounds of victory played on “Trump Guitars,” priced from $1,000 to $11,500.

MAGA cool kids are wearing “Trump Sneakers” to the inaugural balls. The “Commander High Top Inauguration Edition” is only $299 — the same for those
