Bloomberg:

Donald Trump has sent an offer to purchase the site of the proposed mosque near New York City’s Ground Zero for the price paid plus 25 percent, according to a statement received by e-mail.

Trump said as part of the offer that if a mosque were to be built it would be located at least five blocks further from the World Trade Center site.

NEW YORK (AP) – Donald Trump is offering to buy out one of the major investors in the real estate partnership that controls the site near ground zero where a Muslim group wants to build a 13-story Islamic center and mosque.

In a letter released Thursday by Trump’s publicist, the real estate investor tells Hisham Elzanaty he would buy his stake in the lower Manhattan building for 25 percent more than whatever he paid.

Trump says he’s making the offer not because he thinks the location is spectacular but because it would end “a very serious, inflammatory, and highly divisive situation.”

It’s unclear whether Elzanaty has total control over the property, which is owned by an eight-member investment group managed by Soho Properties.

    the muzzie wants 18-20 million. even though he paid like five for it.

    What Trump needs to do is say he will put up like 7 mill and take donations from Americans to cover the rest. wouldnt take much to get to the selling price.

    Trump has a combover that gives small children bad dreams. Looks like he has a dead animal stapled to his head. You would think with all his bucks he could get a damn good rug…

    But when push comes to shove The Donald kicks ass! A true capitalist and patriot to the core!

    Having Trump own that slice of land would be far better than having it a mosque.

    Emminent FUCKING domain is the answer. But NY politicians do not have the balls to do this.

    Donald Trump is an egregious example of how you can succeed as an American in this country.

    And, God Bless Him for trying to do something good with his money. I hope he’s successful.
