That is really like feeling an elephant’s toenail and thinking you can describe the whole elephant. The judgement the town was making was not about making money for Trump. They had big problems with poverty, and crime, and urban blight and they decided that they would be benefiting the town as a whole much more than they would be inconveniencing Mrs Coking. NJ agreed and allowed them to have gambling licenses. The hoopla about Trump is a vast oversimplification of a very serious situation which is being pushed as valid to damage Trump for other candidates benefit.

Yeah so deprive a person of their property rights is hunky dory, got it.

Perhaps we can throw them in ovens and get more tax revenue, cause clearly tax revenue is more important than stupid freedom.
