https://www.meidastouch.com/news/a-total-scam-trumps-endorsed-bible-has-a-history-of-negative-reviewsThe new Trump-endorsed God Bless the USA Bible isn't actually new. It was announced by Lee Greenwood in 2021 and was marketed as commemorating the 20th anniversary of 9/11. It was also first marketed at $49.99.
The God Bless the USA Bible was originally going to be in the New International Version, a popular version in the United States, but switched over to the royalty free King James Version after Bible publisher Zondervan backed out after controversy. Many Christians took issue with wrapping the Bible in a nation's flag and including nationalistic documents alongside it in a single volume.
It's unclear if the move by Zondervan or other constraints caused issues, but Google reviews reveal several dissatisfied customers who purchased Lee Greenwood's God Bless the USA Bible. Many of them were waiting for the orders to be fulfilled and left 1 star reviews.

Another person complained that they ordered the God Bless the USA Bible for their wife and it "looked good on the outside, but on the inside the margins were way off." This is an indication of poor product quality. A few others were happy with their purchase, but many people complained about the extended shipping delays.

Wrapping one's self & one's god in the flag is loathesome.
Expecting the execution of a loathsome idea to be elegant & of quality is unrealistic.

Of course, he might be sued by other Gods who object to the God selected as author.
Or maybe he could hire a Ghost Writer God and come out with a completely updated new Bible with more pictures and more dirty parts.
**Stormy Daniels photos will be included for special customers and theologians.
