Think, he didn’t have nothing to do with the printing. Maybe you can make the connection for me. I can’t see how that makes any sense. Getting a commission or royalties has nothing to do with manufacturing, much less sells!
If he was that concerned about USA workers,as he says he is, he would make a point of finding out where stuff he promotes is manufactured.
But ,no,he just wants to sell stuff to the cult.
To be honest that is one of the stupidest, inaccurate arguments ever put. A greengrocer doesn’t grow the products they sell, supermarkets don’t make the products they sell. They are all on commission except that they call it something like “profit margin”.
There are plenty of places giving away bibles to anybody who wants one, no one is going to pay $60 for a bible were it not for Trump’s endorsement. Quote:
While the God Bless the USA Bible website says that the Bible is “not owned, managed or controlled by Donald J Trump”, it adds that the venture “uses Donald J Trump’s name, likeness and image under paid license from CIC Ventures LLC”.
Trump, according to a financial disclosure report filed last year, is the manager, president, secretary and treasurer of CIC Ventures LLC.
LOL, just a little education in business may help. 5 minutes of research is amazing.
Royalties are governed by legal agreements between the producers and users of the product or content, which establish the payment structure, as a fixed fee or a percentage of revenue, and establish the frequency of payments, such as quarterly or annually.
Manufacturing is not mentioned.
yes indeed.
as well as reducing the value of the bible to a commercial commodity - rather than a holy book
which of course doesnt matter to non christians - but you think would to someone purporting to be the christian choice.
( and yes I know shops etc obviously sell bibles too - but they are not making exhorbitant profits on such because of their name or endorsement)
and of course the hypocrisy of making big fuss about items from China and then doing exactly that yourself when local alternative was readily available
Amazingly some people defend whatever Trump does - blind loyalty never a good thing.

Asking genuine questions in a civil way is not rude.
Making sarcastic snide questions/comments is.
as has been pointed out to you before.
it is a friendly forum - lets all treat each other with respect and courtesy
Trump is not selling anything, producing anything. Just collects the money for using his name on the product.
You are correct, If people don’t want a Bible with Trump’s name in it, they don’t have to buy it. There are Bibles online for sell, from $3 to over $400, depending on what person may want.
And that is the way legally protected things. Anything from a name to products. That’s business!
Business isnt an excuse to make money on anything - there is also a thing called ethics
and hypocrisy.

That is correct, the United States election don’t take into consideration, other countries business practices.
actually, no - not just me.
nor is it about honesty or truth - whatever anybody thinks is honest and true -there is still a civil way to say it.
And before today, who.
And there you go again attacking my personality. How rude and inconsiderate
oh I think most people in US understand ethics and hyopcrisy too.
You think, I know most Americans are not so thin skinned.
so clearly at least 2 people then.
lets all treat each other with courtsey and respect regardless of agreement in views or not.
as indeed most of us do.
it is not about being thin skinned - ethics and hypocrisy are not about taking offence or ‘thin skin’
Honesty is the number priority. Honesty hurts. There is a great big world out there and everywhere carry themselves in different ways. If they didn’t, they just be sheep.

as posters were saying - and loyal Trump fan you are, you were defending.
As you do everything he does.
As stated above
there are things that Trump does, I don’t like but I will not share those. So remember honesty.
Fyi
