Trump-Endorsed Bible Set To Appear In Oklahoma Schools

America is going to hell.

A Bible endorsed by former President Donald Trump will be making appearances within Oklahoma schools, thanks to state school Superintendent Ryan Walters, the Oklahoman reports. 

Oklahoma Appleseed Center for Law and Justice Executive Director Colleen McCarty says the RFP seems “fair” but found it odd that there aren’t many Bibles that match the requirements. “We can see there are very few Bibles on the market that would meet these criteria, and all of them have been endorsed by former President Donald Trump,” she said. 

However, former Oklahoma Attorney General Drew Edmondson thinks the request may violate some laws. “It appears to me that this bid is anything but competitive. It adds to the basic specification other requirements that have nothing to do with the text,” Edmondson said. 

“The special binding and inclusion of government documents will exclude almost all bidders. If the bid specs exclude most bidders unnecessarily, I could consider that a violation.”

Some superintendents said they have no problem being reprimanded as they won’t permit their teachers to follow suit. “We will not be forcing our teachers to do this,” Bixby Superintendent Rob Miller said on Aug. 12. “As a Christian myself, the idea of diminishing the word of God to a mere classroom prop is a little repulsive to me, so we will not be complying with that directive of having a physical Bible in every classroom.” 

Paperback versions of the New King James Version are sold online for $2.99 each, 5% less than the cost of the Trump-endorsed Bible. Bible apps are also free of charge.
