Including Trump Bibles made in China, right?

[Spoiler Alert — the Trump Administration exempted Bibles from tariffs on China during his term]
 

Like so much else of Trumpism, this whole directive in OK to put Bibles in schools is a combination of forcing Evangelical religion down kid's throats because right-wingers can't get them into churches anymore, a very public "stick it to the libs" move, and pure grift, as Walters is wasting millions of dollars buying Trump Bibles to put into classrooms (and likely pocketing some of it himself). Walters is really hitting the Trumper trifecta with this move.
 

Federal judge rules Louisiana law requiring 10 Commandments to be in all public schools, unconstitutional​

BATON ROUGE, La. — In a blow to Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry, the Louisiana law requiring a depiction of the 10 Commandments be displayed in all public schools, which he signed into law, was ruled unconstitutional by a federal judge on Tuesday.
U.S. District Court Judge John De Gravelles decided that public K-12 schools and colleges in Louisiana do not have to display religious text in the classrooms. The law, supported by both the governor and Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill, was set to go into effect on January 1.

“We strongly disagree with the court’s decision and will immediately appeal, as H.B. 71’s implementation deadline is approaching on January 1, 2025,” AG Murrill told WWL Louisiana.
This comes after lawyers and parents of children in several Louisiana schools sued to block the new law from taking effect saying it violates a student’s right to religious freedom and the parent’s authority to raise their children based on their faith.

How deep is this mandate?

I recall a company back when the made in America was really at its peak, bragging about making everything in America. During an interview with the CEO on the manufacturing floor it was pointed out that all of the equipment was foreign sources as well as most of the raw materials.

So whats to stop a company from completing 98% of production in China, then doing the last 2% in America and claiming it's "Made In America"?
 
Business is business. Senator Prescott Bush skated on trading with the Nazis after war was declared.
