We were screened and we made it up here, then were asked to leave against of the dogs could sweep through here. But we are here now. Saturday was the debate stage it the piece at the peace center. Tonight, its this stage, here. Look at this. Weve seen trump speak many, many times here in the upstate, but this is what you get just days away from the primary. I mentioned that debate on saturday. Trump was critical of what he felt was an unbalanced crowd, a donorclass crowd in the peace center, again hitting on the fact that hes selffunded. He was booed a lot, and two of the candidates that heard the loudest applause were jeb bush and marco rubio. Here, of course, its mostly supporters, and heading into outside. One gentleman says he has their back when it comes to god and guns. Another said it was the economy and isis he will take care of.

Gabrielle speaking of donald trump a new political ad takes a , shot at the candidate. Truth check digs for the facts. Nigel plus, some mustsee video ahead, flowers are making a buzz at a high school. Hear what one teen did to put a smile on his peers faces. John a life shut down clemson boulevard in anderson, overcast with heavy, freezing drizzle. 14 miles something is just fundamentally broken when African Americans are more likely to be arrested by police, and sentenced to longer prison terms, for doing the same thing that whites do. When too many encounters with Law Enforcement end tragically. We need investments in education, health care and jobs, to counter generations of neglect. We have to face up to the hard truth of injustice and systemic racism. Im hillary clinton, the republican primary is just 5 nigel the republican primary is just 5 days away, and political ads are dominating the airwaves. One ad accuses donald trump of using Eminent Domain to seize the property of an elderly woman. Gabrielle tonight, wyff news 4 investigates tim waller finds claim. Tim Eminent Domain is an ageold law that says government can take private property for public use. But a political attack ad aimed at donald trump defines Eminent Domain a little differently. Eminent domain, a fancy term for politicians seizing private property to enrich the fat cats who bankroll them, like trump. I think Eminent Domain is wonderful. It made him rich, like when trump colluded with Atlantic City insiders to bulldoze the home of an elderly widow for a limousine parking lot at his casino. He doesnt have the heart of men. Trump wont change the system. Hes whats wrong with it. Im ted cruz, and i approve this message. Tim ted cruz isnt the only rival to attack trump on the Eminent Domain issue. Jeb bushs super pac mentions it in another ad. So what do we know about trump, and Eminent Domain . Here are the facts that were widely reported by several in the late 1990s, trump planned to build a limousine garage to service the Trump Plaza Hotel and casino in Atlantic City. But several properties stood in the way, including a home owned by vera coking, a woman in her late 60s. Trump recently told meet the press, he offered the woman millions for her property, but she refused to sell. Eventually, the states Casino Reinvestment Development authority threated to use Eminent Domain to take the womans property. The case went to court, and according to Court Records from 1998, coking was allowed to keep her property. At that point, trump withdrew his offer to buy her house. In 2014, more than a decade later, the Trump Plaza Hotel and casino went bust. When attacked on this issue, trump has repeatedly said he never bulldozed cokings house, as the political ad suggests. And hes correct. Trump lost the court case, and coking kept her house. But he did try to take her house, although trump insists it tried to use Eminent Domain, not him. Technically, thats true, but they did it on trumps behalf. So were going to rate this ad, mostly true. Cokings house was never bulldozed, but the state of new jersey did try to use Eminent Domain to take the womans house, so trumps casino could build a limousine garage. Gabrielle remember, any time a political ad hits the air, tim waller will put it to the truth check test. Nigel and be sure to check out our other truth check reports.
