The Book of Trump

I thought all we had to worry about on the religion front was some evangelical Christians wanting to anoint Trump as their savior from the clutches of Satan.

But then along comes Miriam Adelson, a billionaire Jewish philanthropist, who wants to add "The Book of Trump" to the Bible.  I assume she would like it added to "The Old Testament", in that the Christians co-opted that book from the Jewish "Tankh".  She and her casino owning husband are all about Jewish this and Jewish that.  They do not understand why the average Jew hates Trump.

Trump has definitely made the Adelsons happy.  He gave Miriam a Presidential Medal of Freedom. And just to add the final cherry, a few weeks later he moved the US embassy in Israel for them and then topped it off by recognizing Jerusalem as Israel's capitol.  The reasons were standard Trump globity gook.  I suspect the real reason was the Adelsons gave him $25 million for his campaign in 2016.

Miriam's husband is Sheldon Adelson, the billionaire owner of the The Sands casino in Las Vegas.  He and his wife have donated more than any other Republican donor over the last two elections.  They gave Trump $25 million for his campaign ion 2016.

The Adelsons are the perfect owners for Trump.  A match made in Heaven. .......... UH, well, maybe not in Heaven.  Probably some smoky backroom in Vegas.

This man who lives 1600 Pennsylvania ave is plain danger. Not sound like a BIGOT. Here in were I live in Idaho there a large percentage of Mormons and there a different between Mormons from were I live and the ones in Utah.
We have the Jack Mormons up here the cool ones.
I know a few secular Jews and only thing they do is bad mouth policy of Israel. And have low opinion Prime minster Netanyahu.
But remember I live in North Idaho and some people might not be very worldly and just watch fox news.

Mike:

I had thought you were just being incredibly creative and making a piece of fiction in regards to your description of a proposed “Book of Trump”.

I am utterly flabbergasted to see when I went and Googled it, that this was not fiction, but actual news. I am so shocked! This is insane, and our world has gone even
more crazy than I thought!!!!!

Our ties with Israel are eventually going to pull us into an even greater conflict in the middle east. We should stay out of all religious bickering that always ends in wars and carnage.

Peppy Lady - North Idaho seems like it is handling quite a variety of views. Good for them. That is the way it should be.

Pipe Tobacco - no, this story proves the adage that truth is often stranger than fiction. Hell, Thr truth of the whole Trump experience is something no writer could have done justice to. Living it is the only way to even believe it.

Ol'Buzzard - Our ties with Israel will become more problematic in the future for sure. I hate AIPAC has done serious damage to the US in my opinion. I hate that organization.
