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.
I like criticizing Trump as much as the next person but are we really supposed to believe he read a book?
I bet there's a creepy-ass illustrated version for kids, and it's that version.
have you seen the way he slobbers all over dictators though? Even shite ones like North Korea's Kim, he fucking gets a hardon talking about Putin or Orban or MBS because it's his wet dream to have that kind of power. And he's too fucking dumb to realize it's fundamentally incompatible with the way the country works. So yeah, I believe he spends every night reading this shit, sounding out the words with a hooked-on-phonics and antisemitism jr dictionary on hand so he can parse out the words with multiple syllables.
That was my thought. This is the president that they struggled to keep focused for normal briefs and security updates. No way he reads.
If it was about bigotry, it's believable
Amen
