The Reverend Donnie Anderson, executive minister of the Rhode Island State Council of Churches, took issue with President Donald Trump signing the Bibles, calling it a “calculated political move.”

“For me, the Bible is a very important part of my faith, and I don’t think it should be used as a political ploy,” said Rev. Anderson to the Associated Press.

“I saw it being used just as something out there to symbolize his support for the evangelical community, and it shouldn’t be used in that way. People should have more respect for Scripture.”
