Think on the bright side. The Donald is going to eminent domain the Iraqi oil fields.

I'm posting this pre-election item to provide a place to have a FOCUSED discussion on Eminent Domain & Donald Trump.

You're posting it because the same debate had in another thread wasn't going the way the deranged anti-Trump people were hoping.

Most people are more concerned with being dispossessed by the IRS or some drug charge, where market value compensation is of no concern.

Another hit piece from NR. Again, Trump has never had and will never have any impact whatsoever on Eminent Domain.

We want a dictator. Hopefully Trump ends up being a benevolent dictator.

The issue is not an issue. The Kelo decision put it to rest

There can be disagreement, but overturning is not going to happen in the immediate present

Trump has nothing to do with that fact set

Speaking of confiscation, how about a thread illuminating the dominionists’ ‘seizing the wealth of the ‘wicked’ to be redistributed to the priests & the ‘kings’.- Ted Cruz being one of those ‘anointed kings’.
People have a right to know.

You should ask the Hammonds. The government’s tactics to take their land are the complete opposite of what Trump has ever done. He offered way above market price and having been rebuffed and lost in court, let it drop. In contrast the government rescinded rights and seized their water without any hearing and threw them in jail on bogus charges.

Good idea but trumpees do not care. They defend all that is donald.

I remember how much anger their was after Kelo. In fact, there was a caustic movement to take Justice Souter’s house under E.D. for “economic” development. I am sure that many Trump supporter abhor Kelo but seem all to willing to pass on Trump’s position.

[SaraJohnson]

Eminent Domain is the law of the land, bought and paid for by politicians and their pacs. Politicians are the ones who decide when to allow eminent domain and when to deny it to real estate developers. ($$$$). NO ONE is challenging this injustice, including Trump.

On the other hand, NO ONE challenged political correctness, illegal immigration nor flooding the nation with jihadists before Trump, either.

Tag line.

It's amazing how the Trumpettes can't even admit their man could possibly wrong on even one issue. Emminent domain for private profit is evil and shows the Donald's feelings about government power, but that doesn't matter to them. I don't remember one Freeper defending the Kelo decision when it came out, but now it's Okay because he says it is.

And for all those saying it's okay because Trump offered more money than the properties worth, well not everything comes down to money.

Can Republicans support someone with so little regard for... property of others?

This is something that has long been the biggest bone of contention I have against Trump.
