    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.
