This is the best summary I could come up with:
Donald Trump's past comments about Mein Kampf have resurfaced after he referenced the book penned by Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler in a speech in Iowa last night.
Trump has earned criticism for his speech in the Hawkeye State after he said immigrants are "poisoning the blood of our county" during a rally in New Hampshire over the weekend.
The Biden-Harris campaign accused Trump of "parroting Hitler" in his speeches, while a resurfaced interview reveals the moment the former president talked about being given Mein Kampf by a friend.
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.
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.
