In Germany "Mein Kampf" in its unedited, uncommented form is banned and maybe that's not a bad idea. Prevents dimwits from reading it unfiltered and ... become president with a twisted world view heavily influenced and inspired by one of the worst dictators and murderers in humans history.

As if Trump has actually read it

If not, other nazis probably told him all about it over the years.

Oh yeah, I'm sure he's heard all the talking points. Probably had a secretary read him the sparknotes

Agreed. I think their solution of banning the unedited version while allowing a version annotated by non-fascist historians is spot on.
