Did you know that Vera asked as much as 5 million for her property?? Did you know after she moved she and her son eventually sold it for 530K? She was willing to sell just like Trump said, the problem was she was greedy and “impossible to work with”.

But the main point is it is a lie to say Trump steals property though eminent domain, Trump has never acquired property though eminent domain. If he has an example would be easy to find.

This is a strawman of your own invention that I am not obliged to defend. Here is the original claim made by Ajnin:

"that is why he has no problem abusing eminent domain."

Based on Trump's own statements, his 100% support of Kelo, and his actions with the Coking property, a rational person can only conclude that Donald Trump has no problem abusing eminent domain.

Personally, I believe the Kelo decision is one of the worst decisions handed down by SCOTUS. I remember how negatively people here at FreeRepublic reacted to that decision. Yet now we have people here pretending to be conservatives while at the same time supporting a candidate who 100% agrees with Kelo.

Oh, and for the record, slamming Vera Coking as being "greedy" is the same tactic that liberals use. It has no bearing on her property rights.
