Commentators invoke Amos 8:5 to attack $59.99 Trump Bible
Original: The $59.99 Bible salesman should open to Amos 8:5. It condemns those who "make the ephah small and the shekel great." Sh
Critics are mocking the $59.99 Trump-endorsed Bible by pointing to Amos 8:5, a verse condemning merchants who shrink goods and inflate prices. Commenters argue the price gouging reference is fitting given that Trump promised cheaper groceries but delivered higher prices, while some religious supporters continue to champion him. The joke is spreading across social media as a pointed critique of mixing commerce, religion and politics.
Why now: The Trump-backed $59.99 Bible is drawing fresh mockery for its price and perceived hypocrisy on inflation.
