The Kelo Case and Trump’s case were different. Kelo was verus the city of New London, Connecticut. It went to the Supreme Court.
Trump’s case was in Atlantic City with Vera Coking.
True enough. I was confusing the two cases. But Trump likely would have beat Coking had the Kelo decision been in place. And no doubt that is why he likes Kelo so much. Kelo is viewed by conservative constitutional scholarship as on the same level as Dred Scot. It attacks property rights at a fundamental level. Trump apparently does not get it.
