Highlights: Donald Trump’s ex-wife, Ivana, reportedly said that he kept a copy of Hitler’s book, “My New Order,” in a cabinet next to the bed and that he would read from it before going to sleep. Trump has long denied that he read Hitler’s book for its hateful message. Instead, he pivots and prevaricates, claiming that if ever did read “My New Order” it was because he admired the language and speeches. But Trump’s denials always stretched the limits of credulity. He told Vanity Fair magazine in 1990 that, “If I had these speeches, and I am not saying that I do, I would never read them.”

For decades, Trump has repeatedly shown himself to be a casual antisemite. Throughout his presidency and beyond, he has continued to advocate for and amplify antisemitism and white supremacy. As the manifestly corrupt ex-president faces the growing reality of (finally) going to prison for his many obvious crimes, he is now publicly wallowing even more in antisemitism and white supremacy.

    That was my thought. This is the president that they struggled to keep focused for normal briefs and security updates. No way he reads.
