In a long and wide-ranging interview on Fox News, el Trumpo defended his positions including the one many conservatives find to be his weakness – his adoration of Eminent Domain, and especially the Kelo Supreme Court decision.
The first part of the interview contains the Eminent Domain discussion:
I think many might get upset that he’s calling people who don’t want to sell their property “hold outs” – what if they just like their property?
Also he gives the example of eminent domain where property is taken to “build highways,” but Trump has never built a highway!! The Kelo case was about developers abusing Eminent Domain not for public gain, but for private gain. And Trump thinks it’s “wonderful.”
