Trump's Bible omits Amendments 11-17.

It's a fascinating fact that the Trump Bible -- which has been approved for use in Oklahoma schools which has 55,000 on order -- includes the U.S. Consitution, but omits some pretty important sections of it. Notably, Amendments 11 through 17.

What are these? Well, the abolition of slavery, for example (13), or how presidents and vice-presidents are elected (12), citizenship rights and equal protection (14), right to vote not denied by race (15) and popular election of senators (17).

I wonder why he doesn't want those troublesome little barriers to his total control of everything? 'Tis a puzzlement, isn't it?

The God Bless the USA Bible that Trump endorsed and began selling for $59.99 a pop during Holy Week, packages the King James Version Bible along with the lyrics to God Bless the USA, the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the Pledge of Allegiance. As it turns out, Trump's Bible is missing some key pieces important to voters.​
​
Multiple video reviews analyzed by MeidasTouch revealed that notably missing from the Constitution in Trump’s Bible are the amendments following the Bill of Rights which make up the Constitution's first 10 amendments. Trump's Bible jumps from the original Constitution to the Bill of Rights and then to the Pledge of Allegiance, skipping constitutional amendments 11-27.​

People have been altering and omitting from the Bible for a while now. Why not the silly Constitution?

Since Donald Trump had parts of it put in there.

Otherwise, there's nothing like the Constitution in the Bible nor the Bible in the Constitution.

Has Oklahoma actually placed an order?

This is the kind of BS that makes me look down on the current left. This so-called Bible includes the Bible, the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, which is the first 10 amendments, and the Pledge of Allegiance. It’s not as if it was ever intended to include all the amendments. It’s very common to include just the first 10, the Bill of Rights. There’s nothing unusual about this, and the left weakens its position by trying to make a big deal out of nothing.

Sorry, the Constitution is the original plus all of its amendments, that the first ten are given an extra name colloquially is not redefining the constitution as the part without the amendments.
Yes, it is BS on your part.

Why should those be put in the Bible in the first place, if not for partisan grandstanding? What do they offer to the Bible?

The Constitution is incomplete without all 27 amendments.

Aside from that, there is the rapidly accumulating evidence of all the ways in which Donald Trump is attempting to rewrite America itself for his own purposes. It saddens me that so many Americans don't seem to give a hoot, but the evidence is there for anyone with eyes backed by even a minimal brain to see.

Jehovah's First: I am thy lord thy god, thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Uncle Sam's First: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof...
Clearly these are polar opposites and inherently and fundamentally incompatible.

I didn’t say anything about redefining. The first 10 are known as the Bill of Rights and it is common to reference them together without including any other amendment. Go back to civics.
