I think it’ fair to ask those making an issue of it if they support the Keystone Pipeline, which would use eminent domain to take land from owners and give it to a private company. How is that different than Kelo?

Refineries and jobs on the Gulf Coast, plus US oil exports and more US oil independence = public benefit.
And we thought the Eminent Domain to get land for The Ballpark at Arlington was a dark spot in Bush family history.

That was the city of Arlington, not the Bush family. Dubya was just a minor part owner of the Rangers.
Wouldn’t having a business come in a create hundreds or thousands of jobs be a public benefit too? Especially in an economically depressed area? I have mixed feelings about it, but I think Trump makes a good case.
In for a penny, in for a pound.
It didn’t work...

It is incorrect
That is true.
I should have researched it a little better. Thanks for at least trying to get the correct info out there. I was really trying to counter the "Trump destroyed her house, then personally bulldozed it down, after stealing it from her through ED and not paying her a cent" crowd.
Thanks for countering what I said and trying to , at least, provide more accurate info.
Her son did try to sell the house, btw. Icahn bought the house from the auction and later had it torn down.
This lady was a fool.
And her son.

You are to funny. You don't think Jeb had donors with commercial groves?
