CDZ Donald Trump's Top Ten Failures

Top 10 Donald Trump Failures - TIME

This doesn't seem like someone who should be leading the most powerful, influential and wealthiest country on earth.


Sadly, people like Cruz, Santorum, Paul and most of the field is the same way. They don't understand that we can't compete without investing within our nation. These people must never get into power.

You do realize all of Trump's 'failures' were investments within our nation. Is there something wrong with you?
 
1 Obamacare
2 Red Line
3 Iran nukes
4 Race relations
5 Bergdahl
6 Gitmo
7 Credit rating
8 $17 trillion debt
9 Food stamp records
10 Entitlement expansion

1. I don't see anything wrong with fixing the healthcare system...I think a single payer system would of been better! ;) Of course, the argument comes down to do you want a regulated system or do you want a corporate system.

2. What do you want us to do? Go to war???

3. Same as 2.

4. All too true. This is a black eye for obama.

5. True.

6. Well, they should of been sentenced and found guilty.


7. Well, we just had the deepest recession in decades.

8. Caused by war, nation building, a crappy healthcare system and infusions of billions into wall street.

9 Well, true, but I think helping people in trouble is important. We kind of want through a depression! I'd rather help the little guy.

10. Same as 9. Of course, I'd start cutting back to 2007 levels now that the recession is over.

I am all cool with private investment but we as a society should keep doing infrastructure and science investment. ;)

Donald Trump’s Eminent Domain Love Nearly Cost a Widow Her House

This article appeared in The Guardian on August 19, 2015.
Since he shot to the top of the presidential polls, Donald Trump’s serial bankruptcies and bullying nature have made big headlines. But no one seems to have brought up a bullying business practice he’s particularly fond of: eminent domain.

The billionaire mogul-turned-reality TV celebrity, who says he wants to work on behalf of “the silent majority,” has had no compunction about benefiting from the coercive power of the state to kick innocent Americans out of their homes.

For more than 30 years Vera Coking lived in a three-story house just off the Boardwalk in Atlantic City. Donald Trump built his 22-story Trump Plaza next door. In the mid-1990s Trump wanted to build a limousine parking lot for the hotel, so he bought several nearby properties. But three owners, including the by then elderly and widowed Ms Coking, refused to sell.

As his daughter Ivanka said in introducing him at his campaign announcement, Donald Trump doesn’t take no for an answer.

Trump turned to a government agency — the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority (CRDA) — to take Coking’s property. CRDA offeredher $250,000 for the property — one-fourth of what another hotel builder had offered her a decade earlier. When she turned that down, the agency went into court to claim her property under eminent domain so that Trump could pave it and put up a parking lot.

“Trump has had no compunction about benefiting from the coercive power of the state to kick innocent Americans out of their homes.”

Peter Banin and his brother owned another building on the block. A few months after they paid $500,000 to purchase the building for a pawn shop, CRDA offered them $174,000 and told them to leave the property. A Russian immigrant, Banin said: “I knew they could do this in Russia, but not here. I would understand if they needed it for an airport runway, but for a casino?”

Ms Coking and her neighbors spent several years in court, but eventually with the assistance of the Institute for Justice they won on July 20, 1998. A state judge rejected the agency’s demand on the narrow grounds that there was no guarantee that Trump would use the land for the specified purpose. “TRUMPED!” blared the front page of the tabloid New York Post..."

That has nothing to do with abusing the courts ( & therefore the government) to use eminent domain for personal use & to steal someone's home for their personal gain. Pick up what I'm putting down.

Aside from the total lack of ethics... That is an abuse of power & not what a 'less intrusive' government is.

To have the mindset that believes they (Trump) can willfully just take what's yours
(a homeOWNING AMERICAN senior citizen) to make it their (Trump's) own property is NOT something I would want as a leader in a free society.

Thank God he lost, because that is a dangerous road to go down but the problem is, Trump hasn't changed that mindset & that is exactly why our founding fathers put in specific 'checks & balances' that can stop that type of oligarchy.

Of course I'm against it. I don't think I sounded ambiguous. Eminent Domain should only be exercised in the narrowest of ways allowed... such as building a new highway. NEVER to build a private business (New London, Ct / Pfizer) or to expand an existing one (Trump Casino)
