After hesitating, Miriam Adelson commits more than $100 million to Trump’s campaign

Miriam Adelson, the wife of the late billionaire Sheldon Adelson, has reportedly pledged to spend more than $100 million to support former President Donald Trump in the upcoming general election after staying neutral in the Republican presidential primaries this year.

Adelson, an Israeli-born physician who specializes in substance abuse, is set to finance a rejuvenated pro-Trump super PAC, Preserve America, which was initially formed for Trump’s reelection bid in 2020, Politico reported Thursday. The Adelsons contributed $90 million to Trump in that election cycle.

Sheldon Adelson, the casino magnate who died in 2021, was the most generous single donor for Trump in 2016 — spending $20 million. But he didn’t cut checks until September of that year, and leveraged his support to demand that Trump announce the relocation of the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem when he won.

I wonder what Miriam is demanding for that $100 million? I doubt it comes without strings.

The article speculates that it is possibly for pro Israel / Netanyahu policy. But it IS mere speculation.

Was Debs permitted to take office?

He certainly didn't win, but yes, he should have been allowed to take office.

We can rerun these stickers from the 1991 David Duke/Edwin Edwards campaign in Louisiana.

Scott Pressler for the ground game.

Turning point has also launched GOTV program to counter Biden enlisting fed Gov agency drives for selective registration.

Can someone please explain to me how Trump is going to run if he’s in jail?

Biden ran while squirreled away in his basement.

If he has to go through appeals, then the overturn will be years. If they can get SCOTUS to rule on whether there actually was a trial, that might be quicker.

The Constitution lays out qualification for the Office of POTUS. There is no bar that is applicable.

The boxes under the table were clearly the ones packed moments before - you can match up the sticker patterns like a fingerprint. Using that as an example weakens the other arguments.

As for running the ballots through multiple times, there is a process for resetting after a jam, which is the explanation given, however you can see her running some batches through without going through the reset process.

Veamos, ¿votar por un ‘delincuente convicto’ o votar por alguien a quien el fiscal especial Hur describió como un anciano demasiado olvidadizo para procesar?... un anciano olvidadizo quien por su condicion no se le puede dar trato de delincuente.

Se debe hacer referencia a Trump únicamente como un “individuo afectado por la justicia”. Es el gobierno de la izquierda, no el mío.

Of all the replies to my question of whether Trump can be elected and assume office while in jail, no one has provided a coherent response.

You can closest, but being elected while in jail doesn’t equate to taking office and being free to exercise the responsibilities thereof.

Interesting this question hasn’t been answered, even in all the noise of articles and postulations since the verdict.
