She demanded $4 million “clear” (after taxes) for that wedge of property.

As recently as 2011 she was still asking $5 million.

> The Coking home (left) sits alone in the center of casino property. The home Vera Coking refused to sell to Donald Trump adjacent from the Trump Plaza in Atlantic City is up for sale at a drastic reduction from its $5 million asking price in 2011. Now it’s $995,000.

And she sold it for $530K.

And you’re an obvious troll!

Nope, just pointing out that you folks suffering from TDS have a double standard in your criticisms. One standard for Trump...another standard for Cruz.

Sad you folks are joining the lies of the MSM and GOPe in your hatred of Trump. Top bad you won’t go after the Dems with the same vigor.

Also interesting you won’t answer my question, but simply call me a troll. Very telling indeed.

You marxist socialists have had your whole body in the door for 50 years, and we need Ted Cruz to throw you out.

Pragmatism means the end justifies the means.

Expected ...however eminent domain is being effected against the entire nation state in service to corporate donors and their bought candidates.

Oh. I’m sorry. I’ve probably been doing this for too many hours and my humor radar is malfunctioning. I apologize.

While Cruz initially voted for Trade Promotion Authority (TPA), a bill that gives Obama fast-track trade authority when it came up for a vote in May 2015, he voted against the final passage in the Senate in June citing his disapproval with the “corruption” and “back room dealings” involved with the legislation. - See more at:

A-frickin-men. Trump is Romney sewed up in a Godzilla suit. No coherent platform and a long record of liberal positions he now runs away from, all disguised by crash and bluster on the scale of a Toho Production.

A troll or an idiot, which I’m not quite sure.

Ted Cruz has a solid record in defending our rights in the supreme court while he was Solicitor General.

Were you not a troll you might have found that fact out.

Michelle Malkin (also a target of Trump’s bad behavior) has been very quiet but today she did post one cryptic comment about What to do if someone self immolates....Make Smores.

Perhaps you might want to have a chat with Ted Cruz and Sarah Palin; they do not agree with you.

FYI, the period is placed at the end of the sentence, not on the next line. Makes you look kind of stupid.

It amazes me how many on FR have bought into the Trump mania without thinking about what they are doing. A certain President of ours talked all pretty-like too...

Anyway, it also amazed me how many Trump supporters will NOT dispute or disprove things like this eminent domain issue..but rather, will call it a “it piece” or call the author names.

Mitt Romney didn’t have a dozen+ highly respected business/advice books under his belt either. Mitt was the ultimate hold-your-nose vote. Mr Trump is different.

Another troll journalist making up news again...

Trump is a businessman, and businessmen do what businessmen do. If there is a law that the government can ‘loop hole’ why not other people...

If the government doesn’t like the type of laws they are made to pass because they took money from lobbists and PAC people, oil people, and others, then they shouldn’t have taken the money....

What’s good for the goose is good for the gander....

So why did Cruz vote for the Corker bill which makes it much harder to stop the Iran nuke treaty. Sen. Tom Cotton was the only one to vote against it.
