Trump financial disclosure reveals he made $300K selling Bibles

US

Donald Trump claims he made $300,000 by selling customized Bibles — some of which he signed.

The 78-year-old Republican presidential nominee posted that declaration in a financial disclosure required of all federal election candidates. The forms refer to the Trump-endorsed holy books as “The Greenwood Bible.”

The former president’s gains came in the form of royalties, according to a Business Insider analysis of the Trump’s in-depth financial document. He doesn’t claim ownership or management of the company selling the books.

Trump collaborated with country singer Lee Greenwood to release what that pair called the “God Bless the USA Bible” in March.

“Yes, this is the only Bible endorsed by President Trump!” a sales page for the Bible advertises.

Trump and Greenwood’s version of the Good Book boasts “large print and slim design” and sells for $59.99 — or $1,000 for those who want a Bible autographed by Trump.

The tome is effectively a new packaging of the King James Bible and includes a reproduction of the Declaration of Independence and the words to the Pledge of Allegiance, as well as the handwritten chorus to Greenwood’s song “God Bless the USA.”

The disclosure also claims Trump posted over $100 million in liabilities stemming from lawsuits against the former president. That includes a 2023 civil suit from when a New York City jury found Trump liable for sexual abuse against advice columnist E. Jean Carroll.

Trump also reportedly owns at least $1 million in cryptocurrency.
