Let’s talk about Eminent Domain and the Bush Stadium.

Such a conversation could lead to discussing the fact that Trump agrees with Hillary and the left wing of the court on Kelo vs New London. He thinks eminent domain is wonderful. Without it, there might be a shortage of casino parking!

The only person offering voters a choice on that issue is Gary Johnson.

The Trump story on ED is one of a developer who offered 2 X more to a very stupid and stubborn person for an eyesore, and who retreated when his partners pursued such person in court using ED as a basis.

The stubborn person prevailed in court but that person’s family was upset by the member’s stupidity and shook their heads in regret when a little while later their stubborn family member passed away and they could not sell the eyesore in question for even 1/4 what Trump offered. Instead, they sold it for 1/8 of what had been offered and all of the proceeds went to pay estate taxes.

Trump offered the person in question a sum that would have lifted the person’s family from a low middle-class existence to a level of affluence.

The stubbornness of the person ended in winning a moral victory while screwing their family and leaving them nothing.

The Bush ED case was much more egregious and pernicious.

Indeed big developers are universally aligned with Kelo but some ruin people’s lives in the process while others like Trump offer a large increase in one’s fortunes.
