“Actually the Constitution very CLEARLY says ED is for public use, and the project Cruz was discussing (a border wall) would clearly fall into the public use category.”
And a parking lot is not used by the public and it’s tax revenues are not used by the public?
A parking lot owned by Trump with the revenue going to Trump is NOT a public use. In the Constitution, public use refers to projects owned and operated by the government for the benefit of the public - roads, airports, post offices, public buildings, libraries, etc. It does NOT refer to projects owned and operated by private parties for the benefit of their investors, in the pursuit of additional tax revenue.
The fact that you have such a hard time grasping this does not speak well of your understanding of the Constitution.

Tax Revenue was the “justification” in the Kelo case....
Which is a bunch of horse crap.
