Sheldon Adelson Owns a Share in Trump’s Rise

Sheldon Adelson Owns a Share in Trump’s Rise

November 10, 2016

By most accounts, Donald Trump was not the first choice for GOP megadonor Sheldon Adelson. Last February he and his wife Miriam were allegedly split between voting for Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX). Then Trump destroyed the Adelsons’ top picks as primary voters flocked to his showmanship mixed with liberal doses of populism and bigotry, including anti-Semitism.
Yet, after the Adelsons top choices were eliminated from the field, Adelson ended up contributing a reported $25 million to help get Trump elected, apparently in a single-minded pursuit to elect a president who shares his hawkish visions of the United States and a pro-Israel force in the Middle East.
Adelson is no stranger to the dangers of anti-Semitism. http://lobelog.com/sheldon-adelson-owns-a-share-in-trumps-rise/
