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.

Peace,

SR

Disclosure: I was answering you as if Kelo were the bulldozer case, and it hit me after I had an entire post written. So, you’re not alone with trouble keeping cases apart thread after thread. Best Regards, Springfield.
