Let's not forget Trump LOVES Eminent Domain

Trump's opponents have zeroed in on Trump's support of eminent domain as a way to cast him as a "fake conservative."

"Donald Trump's been a big fan of this [eminent domain]," Sen. Rand Paul, another 2016 candidate, said last month. "He used it in his business model and has really shown no consideration for small private property owners... I think the more people that get to know what Donald Trump has really been for through the years, I think they're going to really worry that he is a fake conservative."

Last month, the conservative group Club for Growth Action launched an ad campaign aiming to prove that Trump is a self-interested politician, with one ad slamming his "abuse" of eminent domain.

"He can make millions while we lose our property rights," the ad said.



If anyone thinks it's cute to let him win is crazy. Hillary is NOT perfect but she's pragmatic. That means all of us must remain vocal and she will do the right thing but not voting for her is plain madness
