Conservative attorney George Conway unleashed his creativity on Thursday by creating a satirical version of The Ten Commandments inspired by Donald Trump.
Conway, known for his unique perspective, shared this clever list on X, formerly known as Twitter. He crafted it in response to Rep. Greg Steube’s (R-Fla.) admiration of House Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-La.) strong Christian faith, which many fear might impact the House’s functioning.
Conway humorously joked that these commandments are “to be posted in all Members’ offices per order of the Speaker.”
The first commandment reads: “Thou shalt have no other gods before me, except thou shalt followeth thy Orange Jesus over any moral cliff.”
The fourth commandment mocks Rep. Lauren Boebert’s (R-Colo.) “Beetlejuice” controversy: “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy, unless thou attendeth a musical production in Denver.”
The eighth commandment ridicules Trump’s baseless claims of election fraud in 2020 and alleged mishandling of classified documents: “Thou shalt not steal, unless thou needeth to steeleth one moreth than a certain number of popular votes or unless thou can hideth thy stollen documents at thy bathroom in thy resort.”
The intentional misspelling of “stollen” is meant to mock Trump’s frequent typo.

Johnson was elected as House Speaker this week, following three weeks of Republican infighting after Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) was ousted from the leadership role.
On Thursday, Johnson appeared on Fox News with Sean Hannity and shared that his personal worldview is shaped by his faith, as he believes it can be found from picking up the Bible.
