Why Trump held up the Bible? [View all]

Because there is no fool like an old religious fool. By default, they are the most gullible amongst us.

He wanted to show his supporters that he was a strong leader, not the weak coward running to a bunker. So he ordered flash grenades and tear gas used on the peaceful protestors, so he could walk across the street and show his evangelical followers that he was still a man of God.

Just to prove it, he held up the Bible so no one could mistake what book it was? It wasn't his Bible. He must have borrowed it? Why waste a good photo op?
