''The casino magnate Sheldon G. Adelson told Donald J. Trump in a private meeting last week that he was willing to contribute more to help elect him than he has to any previous campaign, a sum that could exceed $100 million, according to two Republicans with direct knowledge of Mr. Adelson’s commitment.
As significant, Mr. Adelson, a billionaire based in Las Vegas, has decided that he will significantly scale back his giving to congressional Republicans and direct most of his contributions to groups dedicated to Mr. Trump’s campaign. The two Republicans familiar with Mr. Adelson’s plans spoke anonymously because they were not authorized to discuss the matter publicly.
Mr. Adelson’s pledge to Mr. Trump, the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, comes at an opportune time. Mr. Trump has relied on a mix of his own wealth and small-dollar contributions to finance his primary effort and lacks the sort of major donor network needed to sustain him in the general election. Mr. Trump has said that he may need $1 billion for the campaign but has only recently begun scheduling fund-raisers and hiring finance staff members. Many of the Republican Party’s wealthiest contributors, including the billionaire brothers Charles G. and David H. Koch, have indicated they are unlikely to give to his candidacy.''
He's a friend of Trumps and wants to Make America Great Again?

I don't know what their deal is, trump's gonna loosen regulations and let one guy run wild with casino building. it's not a big deal.

>people want to donate to Trump's campaign >for months he tells them "No" >they keep insisting, raising their pledges >"No" >they insist more, raise their pledges even higher "please let me give you more money than I've ever given anyone, ever" >Trump: "OK"
Yet another example of how Trump is playing 3D chess while everyone else is playing checkers.
Gavin Moore
trump will be a great presidente

Trump's journey into the establishment begins

Adelself realizes more slimes = support for Israel = fewer shekels for Israel.
It's overlapping interests based on a common hatred of sand diggers.
Carter Lewis
Because he knows Trump is just a plant to let Hillary win
Parker Martin
Adelson is anti-Soros I heard. I think it's just jew vs jew . I think Soros pissed Adelsom off in the past and sees the Trump Train as his ticket for revenge.
Nathan Cruz
I'm beginning to think it's the reverse. Especially if she picks Warren for VP
Henry Parker
Trying to buy Trump.
Samuel Reed
He's bought Trump's assurances.
Jack Lewis
>Why would he do this? Isn't Adelson a globalist? nah. he's a zionist. big difference. globalists are anti-zionist (and anti most nationalism, except islamic, for some batshit reason).
Nathan Perry
trump has received $12 million in unsolicited donations so far its amazing
James Reyes
Hillary is a plant to ensure a Trump presidency. Let's meme this into reality!
David Johnson
This guy is a fucking hack!
He bought out the Las Vegas Review-Journal to sway public opinion on some local law suite he's facing. A whole bunch of people quit or got fired due to "lack of loyalty to the newspaper."
Not surprised hes backing the Donald as hes will ensure we send more aid and money to poor Israel.
Mason Kelly
Must be nice to have that kind of money to just throw around.
Dylan Reyes
>Why would he do this Because people like Sheldon Adelson is a republican and donates to the parties candidate. Adelson is also a EXTREMELY pro-Israel dude that wants to nuke Iran to glass... so yeah.
Thomas Morgan
Look at this. She's already campaigning for Trump.
Brandon Jones
He's also butt buddies with bibi, he wants to run israel basically.
Jacob Hernandez
Gotta entertain the Chinks.
Robert Scott
When you destroy one establishment your duty is to create new which will serve people better.

Any money donated to the Republican candidate goes through to the Republican Election Commitee first, so theoretically the cash may not go towards Trump campaign. That's the issue Trump is 'discussing' with Ryan.
