TEL AVIV – Now that Donald Trump is the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, a top GOP donor, voiced support for his fellow billionaire.
“Yes, I’m a Republican, he’s a Republican, “Adelson told the New York Times in a brief interview. “He’s our nominee. Whoever the nominee would turn out to be, any one of the 17 — he was one of the 17. He won fair and square.”
Adelson, who has remained mostly neutral for the past few months of nominating competitions, made the comments on the sidelines of a gala dinner for the World Values Network, a Jewish organization run by Rabbi Shmuley Boteach.
According to the Times, Adelson said he believes Trump “will be good for Israel.”
The newspaper reported:
Mr. Adelson said on Thursday that he had spoken to Mr. Trump recently, but did not elaborate about the timing or nature of their communication. He told another journalist that he thinks that Mr. Trump “will be good for Israel.”
Mr. Adelson’s voice of support was particularly notable given that the Republican Jewish Coalition, a group he has funded heavily, suggested after Mr. Trump became the presumptive nominee that it is focusing mostly on preserving Republican gains in the House and the Senate.

Adelson, Shmuley…Just a few more illustrious associates of Chump.
“He won fair and square.”
Nice Masonic touch there, jewb#tch.
“He told another journalist that he thinks that Mr. Trump “will be good for Israel.”
Or ELSE!!!
Well, if he wasn’t good for Israel he’d have been assassinated by now..I can’t wait to see the faces of American Trump supporters when they realize he will possibly only make things worse (and maybe worse than what Hillary will make them…who knows?)
