'Trump Bible' one of few that meet criteria for Oklahoma classrooms
Bibles endorsed by former President Donald Trump cost $60 each online, with Trump receiving fees for his endorsement.
Bids opened Monday for a contract to supply the state Department of Education with 55,000 Bibles. According to the bid documents, vendors must meet certain specifications: Bibles must be the King James Version; must contain the Old and New Testaments; must include copies of the Pledge of Allegiance, Declaration of Independence, U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights; and must be bound in leather or leather-like material.
A salesperson at Mardel Christian & Education searched, and though they carry 2,900 Bibles, none fit the parameters.
But one Bible fits perfectly: Lee Greenwood’s God Bless the U.S.A. Bible, endorsed by former President Donald Trump and commonly referred to as the Trump Bible. They cost $60 each online, with Trump receiving fees for his endorsement.

Rev 22:18 NET testify to the one who hears the words of the prophecy contained in this book: If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book
I always object to adding anything to the bible. It is fine to want a printed constitution but it should be a separate book.
Sacrilegous in two ways - adding to the scriptures, and promoting a religion with the state. Pick either one, both lanes lead the same direction.
Look, I hate this too, but that's not what that passage means, clearly. Addendums aren't the same as adding new fake scripture (although since there are multiple ideologies on what books of the Bible should be cannon, who's to say). Put your pitchfork down.
I know what you mean but I don't think it is quite that clear and in this case useful to remind people of the other meanings. If nothing else to think about it even if they reject them the thinking is good.
If that's how you chose to interpret it, nearly every bible sold is guilty of it since most have indexes or other addendums
