The article said: "Last April, perhaps in a surge of Czech nationalism, Ivana Trump told her lawyer Michael Kennedy that from time to time her husband reads a book of Hitler's collected speeches, My New Order, which he keeps in a cabinet by his bed.

"Kennedy now guards a copy of My New Order in a closet at his office, as if it were a grenade."

Referring to this, Trump is quoted as saying: "It was my friend Marty Davis from Paramount who gave me a copy of Mein Kampf, and he's a Jew."

In response, Davis is quoted as saying he did give his friend a book about Hitler, but that it was actually My New Order A Collection of Speeches not Mein Kampf.

"I thought he would find it interesting," Davis said. "I am his friend, but I'm not Jewish."

In the article, Trump is quoted as saying: "If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them."

The article also said a Trump Organization employee would click his heels and make a mock Nazi salute at Trump saying "Heil Hitler."

This is like a sketch comedy bit. The funniest part was when Trump tried to pull the "I have a Jewish friend" defense and the guy wasn't even Jewish.

Every penny that goes to social programs to help the poor is a penny that isn't going to corporations and their billionaire donors. Of course they want to cancel it, along with social security, medicare and public libraries.

Has there ever been an American politician who suffered such humiliation? He had to beg and plead and kowtow to get his seat and then was booted nine months later. He passed no major legislation. He accomplished nothing. Then he quit. He departs knowing he was an utter failure.

What a pathetic gesture. I'll show them, I'll take away features from my cars! No one subs to Disney+ just because they can watch it in their car. All you're doing is pissing off tesla owners and scaring away potential owners with your little bitch fit. Pathetic.

A lot of those people and the enlightened centrists who say "both parties are the same" are disinformation warriors and Russian bots designed to erode support for Biden. Even just 1% or 2% can make a difference in some battleground states.

Show this to any trump fan and they'll just say:

"No, he didn't". And that's it. You can't reason with trump supporters.

Careful, Musk might send the internet goon squad after you for saying that. He gets very upset if you call him an investor in Tesla.

They're brave enough to arrest children, but not brave enough to intervene when a sicko is murdering them with a machine gun. Tracks for most cops.

No, if they have the votes they can do a sham impeachment for any reason they want. They can vote to impeach just because they don't like his stupid ugly face. But I doubt they actually have the votes. This is just revenge for daring to impeach Trump. It won't succeed but they get to do "investigations". They hope that will hurt Biden next November.

It's always a good day when a confederate monument gets the Sherman treatment. The tragedy is that there are any left at all.

This story is absolutely terrible but it's, sadly, important to keep them visible so "moderates" know exactly what will happen if republicans take control on a national level. This is the future for all women if they were to take the WH and both chambers of Congress. They already have the Supreme Court for at least 15-20 years even if a Republican is never elected President again.
