I hate how the Bible is being used as a nationalist prop. Nationalism was a theme of the old testament and Jesus called his followers to move beyond national identity. But that's how fascism works, it apropariates instead of actually creating something new.

Trump's bible also includes the US Constitution for an added layer of irony.

It includes ... copies of historical documents including the U.S. Constitution, Declaration of Independence and Pledge of Allegiance.

The Daily Show plays a clip from Trump's own promotional video in which he explains what his Bible contains.
