What happened
Former President Donald Trump, about $4.5 billion dollars richer on paper after Trump Media started trading on the Nasdaq stock exchange Tuesday, posted a video on social media hawking a $60 "God Bless the USA Bible." Trump licensed his name to the company selling the Bible, in partnership with country music star Lee Greenwood, and "is getting royalties from purchases," The New York Times said.
