Sen. Raphael Warnock schools Trump with Biblical putdown

Georgia Senator and Baptist pastor Raphael Warnock hit Donald Trump with a lesson from the Bible that he slammed him for selling during his Democratic National Convention speech Monday.

“Yes, i saw him,” Warnock told the crowd. “i saw him holding the Bible and endorsing a Bible as if it needed his endorsement.”

He was referencing a fundraising push that saw Trump selling $60 God Bless the USA Bibles, named after MAGA-supporting country singer Lee Greenwood’s patriotic song.

“He should try reading it!” shouted Warnock.

“It says do justice, love kindness, and walk humbly with your God. He should try reading it. It says love your neighbor as yourself, it says in a much as you've done to the least of these, you have done also unto me.”

“I choose the American covenant you pluribus unum, out of many one, I choose January 5 [the day he was elected in 2021], I choose a nation that provides a path for ordinary people and give every child a chance.”
