In 1961, Coking bought a modest three-story house on Columbia Place in Atlantic City a short walk off the boardwalk. She raised her children in that house. She made a life in that house. For 25 years, Vera Coking lived in that house while Atlantic City began its transformation into a Jersey-style version of Vegas, complete with mega casinos and their billionaire owners. In the early ’80s, Penthouse magazine founder Bob Guccione offered Coking a cool million dollars for her property, which he wanted to raze to make way for a casino. She refused.

Unfortunately for her, the story didn’t end there. As the Washington Post reports, no sooner had Coking turned Guccione down, than Donald Trump — in the middle of building his giant Trump Plaza casino — moved in for the kill. Trump offered to buy the property — he wanted to turn Coking’s house into limousine parking – but, again, the sturdy woman refused his bid: The house wasn’t for sale. And so, because nothing could be permitted to stand in the way of his ambition, Trump began playing hardball — with a widow. This was her “dream house,” said Dana Berliner, an attorney with the Arlington, Va.-based Institute for Justice, a civil liberties law firm that represented Coking in her case against Trump and Atlantic City’s casino development authority. “She was a very determined person,” Berliner said. … Coking held firm, even as the 22-story Trump Plaza soared outside her windows with its ever-flashing lights. The house was deteriorating, but Coking’s will wasn’t. Demolition crews had set fire to her roof, broken windows and smashed up much of the third floor, according to her attorneys. Still, she didn’t move. In May 1994, Coking got a letter from the city’s Casino Reinvestment Development Authority offering her $250,000 — a quarter of what Guccione had offered a decade before — and threatening to use eminent domain powers to take control of the property if she didn’t take the deal, according to a summary of the case by the Institute of Justice.

Read in there how he swindled wanna be real estate folks, chased Veterans off 5th Avenue, how from 2009-2013 he donated less then 60k to Veterans yet 350K to the Clintons, read how he used illegal immigrants and treated them like ****. Trump 2016 is a false image meant to dupe fools. Don't be a fool.
 
Many people think that if someone is a good businessman that automatically means he'd be a good politician. There's probably more lying and cheating and underhand deals in the business world than in politics.

They think the lying, secretive, underhand dealing businessman will suddenly be an honest, open, competent politician. IDK why, but they do.

Probably because he doesn't despise me for being what I am. What's it like to fail troll so badly?

The Left doesn't respond to solid anti-trump arguments because they want him to be the front runner.
The Right doesn't respond to solid anti-trump arguments because they are (R)ight.

You are a moderate because you don't know that Businessman bought politicians and that is why politicians don't listen to the people. Our Politicians are simply car salesman puppets selling the brand. The BRAND is what people should be focused on. Because the BRAND is a mixture of Corporations.

You can watch politicians sell a good message, then after they get into office, the Collector comes knocking and they turn into everything America hates.

I doubt that.
It is more likely that they think an established leader is what they want leading the nation, not a career politician (who really are not leaders).

Obama has been a decent president, considering what he inherited and the GOP's attitude towards him.

It's never his fault he didn't lower the seas, heal the planet and make everything great. It's because he INHERITED something bad and the GOP wouldn't play nice with him.

Disgusting, 7 plus years in and you still play that line.

What?
Let's look at some things:
Obama’s Numbers (January 2016 Update)
(Consider the recession.)

(No one is perfect either, Obama has failed in many areas, succeeded in others. Can't say the same for Bush.)

Where did I blame bush? Oh, I forgot, we're not allowed to consider the fact that Obama literally took over during a recession.

Debt is through the roof, economic stagnation and another recession is baring down on us after barely eeking out of a recession. Racial tensions are higher, the precedence of "I'll just do it my way if Congress won't agree" rule by legal fiat, ISIS, American's have become numb to a president that lies to them... constantly.

Cry more? Over the last 60 years, Obama was the ONLY President whose policies greatly hindered, ACTIVELY hindered a recovery.

Debt has been constantly increasing for decades. The national debt by itself isn't bad, people have this absurd belief that we have to pay it all back or something. That's not how it works. Yeah, the economies been stagnant for some time now, what was Obama supposed to do about it? Racial tensions are higher? Yeah, sure. :roll:
Oh, so ISIS was created by Obama?
