In March 2019, President Donald Trump signed Bibles for survivors of a tornado outbreak in Alabama. He offered up his autograph to first responders and survivors at a Baptist church in the eastern part of the state. The Bible signing provoked media reports over the weekend, with some critics voicing strong opposition to Trump's actions. Trump has some personal experience with signed Bibles, having requested a Bible signed by the late evangelist Billy Graham in 2005. However, a Bible signed by Trump in black marker, in person, on the title page, was sold on eBay for $325 in March 2019. A Morning Consult poll released in March 2019 showed nearly two-thirds of Christians in the U.S. found it inappropriate when Trump signed the covers of at least two Bibles earlier this month at a Southern Baptist church in Alabama while visiting a community recovering from a deadly tornado outbreak.

I wasn't aware that Ebay was/is considered a black market.😋

The picture may be real, but the meme is just that, a meme. Trump doesn't embody the 7 deadly sins.

Thank you for that. I think the words “black marker” refer to the instrument wherewith he signed his name. I read “black market” at first, too. Anyway, your post goes a long way in clarifying things.
