    I would do the same, but that is because I have developed my own ethical compass that defies Yahweh’s authority. In Trump’s case, it is because he is an utterly evil fucker, beholden to no being beyond himself.

      You can swear on the book of your choice.

        Oh, wow, really.

        Officials can swear using any book or document meaningful to them – or none at all.

        There’s also some actually used examples like a stack of banned books, Superman comic book, and even a Dr. Seuss book.

        It seems like swearing on the Constitution should be mandatory.

        Trump’s preferred book might have been too flagrant too soon

        When I get inaugurated, I’ll swear on a copy of Naked Lunch.
