"....He tried to negotiate, at one point offering Coking $1 million for the land. But she wasnt budging. So New Jerseys Casino Reinvestment Development Authority filed a lawsuit, instructing Coking to leave within 90 days and offering compensation of only $251,000.
Perhaps the only upside to this story is that in neither case did Trump succeed. The Bridgeport plan fizzled. Coking fought in court, and in part because these were the days before Kelo was decided, no doubt she was lucky enough to win. In 1998, a judge threw out the case.
In 2005, however, Trump was delighted to find that the Supreme Court had okayed the brand of government-abetted theft that hed twice attempted. I happen to agree with it 100 percent, he told Fox Newss Neil Cavuto of the Kelo decision.
Can Republicans support someone with so little regard for the property of others? Lets hope not."
July 18, 2015: Trump Stands By Past Support For Universal Health Care
"Trump said in 1999 when he was flirting with a presidential rub on the Reform Party ticket that the U.S. should make health care an entitlement and that coverage should be universal."
May 5, 2015: Trump: Geller 'taunting' Muslims with Muhammad event [she's an "obnoxious blowhard"]
"..We spend billions and billions of dollars fighting and even trillions of dollars fighting. We end up getting nothing out of it. And the last thing we need is an obnoxious blowhard like Geller to go out and start trouble,when there's no reason for it....
TRUMP:Well,there certainly is a war going on.And she should be a--she should be much more responsible because what she's doing is unnecessary. I will give you an example. Let her go out and talk about--she's using those show free speech. She's not using it for any other--and she's using it for her own purpose...
April 26, 2011: Trumps donation history shows Democratic favoritism
"Billionaire Donald J. Trump, an early presidential favorite among tea party activists, has a highly unusual history of political contributions for a prospective Republican candidate: He has given most of his money to the other side.
The real estate mogul and Celebrity Apprentice host has made more than $1.3 million in donations over the years to candidates nationwide, with 54 percent of the money going to Democrats, according to a Washington Post analysis of state and federal disclosure records.
Recipients include Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (Nev.), former Pennsylvania governor Edward G. Rendell, and Rahm Emanuel, a former aide to President Obama who received $50,000 from Trump during his recent run to become Chicagos mayor, records show. Many of the contributions have been concentrated in New York, Florida and other states where Trump has substantial real estate and casino interests.".....
When he considered a run for president in 2000 as a Reform Party candidate, Trump said he supported abortion rights. But he said last week that he now opposes the procedure except in cases of rape or incest or when the mothers health is at risk......
March 2012: Donald Trump with Greta Van Susteren [discusses his feelings about Bill and Hillary Clinton]
".......TRUMP: I think Biden has been a very loyal person, to be honest with you. I think he has been a good vice president for the agenda that they set and he has been a very, very loyal person. I respect him for that.
Hillary Clinton I think is a terrific woman. I am biased because I have known her for years. I live in New York. She lives in New York. I really like her and her husband both a lot. I think she really works hard. And I think, again, she's given an agenda, it is not all of her, but I think she really works hard and I think she does a good job. I like her.
VAN SUSTEREN: She says she's out at the end of this term. Do you think we will see her again running for office?
TRUMP: I think so. Assuming she is healthy, I think she probably runs after the next four years, I would imagine.
VAN SUSTEREN: Do you support her?
TRUMP: I don't want to get into this because I will get myself into trouble --
VAN SUSTEREN: That's why I asked you.
TRUMP: I just like her. I like her husband. Her husband made a speech on Monday and was very well received. He is -- he is a really good guy, and she's a really good person and woman.".......

I didn’t think the Tea Party wanted the Donald anyway.
Yes yes we know... Reagan was dem once too ya know. And at least he’s telling it like it is; only Cruz has as much chutzpah.
Somehow the hackiest of Establishment hacks have become go-to “tea party” authorities.
I’m STILL looking for the transcribed words proving Trump “disparaged” McCain’s “hero” status.
I think Trump is doing just fine with the Tea Party.
Thank you. But go ahead an advance your guy’s campaign.
All the same. :D
Exactly! Folks should rise up and denounce these posers.
The truth about Sal Russo is available to those who search the internet... I don’t think we need Sal’s opinion.
What we need is the opinion of the American People, who TRUMP HAS PROVOKED LIKE NO OTHER!
Trump’s Politically Correct Bullies

Let the man speak the truth. If the RNC destroys him, they will regret it. And we will all regret it if we let them destroy him.
All you need to know about Sal Russo.
When was the TEA Party ever sweet on Donald Trump?
The propaganda ministry seems intent on creating conservative verse conservative conflicts. I wonder if they might have an agenda?
I thought The Ministry Of Propaganda had told us several times that the Tea Party was dead.....
I’ll go there.
I am pretty much Tea Party, and I totally support Trump.
100%.
Pro-American jobs, and strong borders. Absolutely.
So, just curiious, one guy ‘Russo’ tells us what the Tea Party wants? Really? I’m as tea party as they get and I’m still giving him time considering all the professional, permanent political class he’s competing with. If not Trump, the Cruz or Walker... in that order...
When Reagan first ran for President, he had already supported Goldwater publicly AND served two terms as Governor of California as a conservative Republican. Trump was a registered Democrat who supported Obama in 2008 and claimed no party at all in 2012.
You're doing to have to do better.
Nice try but no cigar. LOL!
He Gave voice to an issue that can pull people from across party lines. That is why all of you are so flipping upset. You know it. He knows it and a lot of average Americans both the left & the right ignore know it.
So shoot at will, you are not fooling anyone anymore.
The fraud that is the official ‘Tea Party” is staffed with GOP and funded by GOP cash. We warned people when this started to make damn sure to guard against infiltration. Now look who controls the TEA Party.
So is it really surprising GOP people are against someone they see as a threat to the gravy train?
I’m a ‘Tea Party’ supporter! Cruz is my #1 but Trump and Santorum are also supported here.
