Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner refused to sign memo saying Trump was not antisemitic, book says

Summary

Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner refused to sign a statement saying Donald Trump was not antisemitic, according to Michael Wolff’s new book “All or Nothing.”

The couple previously served as senior advisers but distanced themselves after the January 6 attack.

Wolff claims Trump sought their “Jewish cover” following his ambiguous stance on Israel post-October 7 Hamas attacks.

Kushner dodged repeated requests for a formal endorsement, eventually declining to label Trump as non-antisemitic.

Jared got his money from the Saudis and now has no use for Trump. Donnie threw Ivanka's mom in a hole in the ground to get a tax break. Loyalty runs in that clan.
- You’d think Trump would be a bit nicer given his comments about her…
(negative)ⁿ in title, i'm lost again.
::: spoiler Let's disentangle this mess :
Statement "A" :
Trump ≠ (anti-semitic = Hate_Jews™)
//
(( Ivanka Trump + Jared Kushner →
Trump's relatives )) . (refused to sign ≈ deny ) . ("A")
→
Trump's relatives (deny he does not) hate Jews //(in memo that is in book)
→
:::
.
≈ Trump's relatives : "He hates Jews".
- This is a useful comment for those who part computer.
  
  Once again i struggle understanding a simple English sentence. please help me :
  (...) who part computer.
  1st interpretation would be written differently for me ... i would write it like :
  "for those who are part human, part computer" so i would have to reject that one.
  2nd interpretation would be reading "part" as a verb ... like dividing something into parts. So : "taking a computer into many pieces"
  Since I'm not sure how this second interpretation works, i start doubting my capacity and believe there might be a third interpretation ...
- This is spot on. Is this a skill that can be taught
  
  i don't know. Maybe this is what happens when reading English through a French mind.
