Oklahoma Superintendent of Schools Ryan Walters has paid $60 per Bible to place in the state’s public schools, even though the state is ranked 48th in the country in education, which he defended on CNN:
PAMELA BROWN: The Trump bibles are $60 a pop. There are many bibles available that cost half that. Why are you using a Trump-endorsed bible?

According to Meidas, Walters circulated a video of himself praying for the 34-time felon and rapist Trump to public schools.
Dear God, thank you for all the blessings you’ve given our country. I pray for our leaders to make the right decisions. I pray in particular for Donald Trump and his team as they continue to bring about change to the country.
