“The Bible does not need Donald Trump’s endorsement,” Warnock said Sunday in a CNN “State of the Union” interview with Dana Bash. “Jesus, in the very last week of his life, chased the money changers out of the temple, those who would take sacred things and use them as cheap relics to be sold in the marketplace.”
Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-Ga.)
Warnock said former President Trump selling branded Bibles is “risky business” given the sins of his life, adding to criticism against the former president related to the deal.
