Senator Raphael Warnock: ‘The Bible doesn’t need Trump’s endorsement’

Ex-president's decision to sell Bibles branded with his name is risky business', says Warnock, pastor of historic Atlanta church

Donald Trump's decision to sell Bibles branded under his name is risky business", Democratic US senator Raphael Warnock said Sunday, as the former president stands accused of having few moral scruples in four separate criminal indictments pending against him.

The Bible does not need Donald Trump's endorsement," Warnock, the pastor of Atlanta's historic Ebenezer Baptist church, said to CNN's State of the Union on Sunday. Speaking on Easter, one of Christianity's holiest celebration, Warnock added: It's a risky bet because the folks who buy those Bibles might actually open them up, where it says things like thou shalt not lie, thou shalt not bear false witness, where it warns about wolves dressed up in sheep's clothing.
