Who is attacking whom on eminent domain? Ted Cruz is hitting Donald Trump on eminent domain by saying Trump took property from a little old lady to build a parking lot for limousines.
Could this work? Vanity Fair asked the Club for Growth. The Club for Growth pointed to these 3 reasons for why it could.
- plays well with focus groups
- it makes people feel like Trump is only in it for the deal, and to screw over the little guy
- when similar ads were run in Iowa in 2015 by the Club for Growth, Trumps poll numbers dipped
