Over the course of his business career, Donald Trump has been willing to put his name on all kinds of products. This includes a university, water, steaks and all kind of cheap clothing.
Trump has never needed money more than he does right now. This week, he announced he is putting his name on something new: bibles. Not only will he be selling bibles with his name on them, but he is also charging $60 for the books.
SNL mocked Trump's money grab in a skit where he hawks bibles. "That's right, it's Easter," James Austin Johnson, playing Trump, began. "That time of year when I compare myself to Jesus Christ. That's just a thing I do now, and people seem to be okay with it. And if you think this is a bad look, imagine how weird it would be if I started selling Bibles. Well..."
SNL's Trump continued, "Look at this beautiful Bible, made from 100% Bible. As you know, I love Bible. It’s my favorite book. I’ve definitely read it. My favorite part is probably the ending. How it all ends up. But this is a very special Bible. And it can be yours for the high, high price of $60."
Johnson closed the sketch by saying, "I’m doing this for the glory of God. And for pandering and mostly for money."
