Compare and contrast, Trump in 2020:
https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2020/09/trump-americans-who-died-at-war-are-losers-and-suckers/615997/… [Trump] did not believe it important to honor American war dead, according to four people with firsthand knowledge of the discussion that day. In a conversation with senior staff members on the morning of the scheduled visit, Trump said, “Why should I go to that cemetery? It’s filled with losers.” In a separate conversation on the same trip, Trump referred to the more than 1,800 marines who lost their lives at Belleau Wood as “suckers” for getting killed.
Got verification for that story? Who saw it? Who heard it?
General John Kelly.
I'll give you the CNN hit piece:
John Kelly is credible witness and source.
Anyone have a problem with that or with what he said?

Yes.
Anyone have a problem with that or with what he said?
Yes, again.
The article that Jolly cited points to Kelly's comments with respect to the Atlantic article. In a nutshell, it says, "Yeah, I believe it happened and that the Orange Man said those things." It does NOT say that he witnessed those things allegedly said by Trump, and he does not explicitly say that he did.
However, he goes on to say that he heard Trump say OTHER reprehensible things which are not stated in the Atlantic article.

I see what you’re saying. Valid points. But I’ll give Gen. Kelly the benefit of the doubt. Unlike Gen. Flynn he has done or said nothing while he worked for Trump or since he left to indicate, to me at least, that he is a flake. Nor were several others who left Trump’s executive, flakes.

BTW, this is the actual video:

Preachers should stay the hell off political podiums and politicians should stay the hell off pulpits.

I really dont get when there is a belief that God is working through someone. If this is the case, isnt it judgmental of us to believe that God is not working through the "other" guy also. I dont think it good form for us to assume who god is working through.
God could just as easy be working for President Biden.

This is a tempest in a teapot. Every week we get urgent mail and calls for all manner of politicians calling me friend and saying how urgent it is that I donate all my worldly goods to save the country from Trump, Biden, GOP, etc ad nauseum. At least here you get a Bible.

That's very unlikely. Like most people, I find that God shares between 95 and 99% of my values and ideals, so there's no way he's going to do that.
I was only joking

I tell you, Phibes, you’re a saint, a veritable saint.

Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

Back to Trump...
As I said, this Bible is a Lee Greenwood product. Trump has licensed his name to it.
Again, it is overpriced, depending on binding, size, etc. OTOH, Bibles, even the KJV are not cheap, not for quality printing and binding.
When did you last buy a Bible?
I suspect, if you bought something like a Scofield, Thompson Chain Reference, Amplified or one of the several study Bibles such as MacArthur 's, you paid anywhere between $40-$100.

I agree with the Pastor’s point but not for the theological reasons he states. Still, credit is due and his flock should heed his sage advice.
