One of the Republican Party’s most prominent financial backers is dead. 

Sheldon Adelson, the 87-year-old Las Vegas Sands CEO, passed following a long bout with cancer. 

Per Fox Business

Adelson was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2019 and recently stepped away from the company to resume his treatment, the company said on Jan. 7.

“Mr. Adelson was the first employee of Las Vegas Sands – “Team Member Number One” he liked to say. Today, more than 50,000 Sands team members have Dr. Adelson and the entire Adelson family in their thoughts and prayers and are grateful to have had their lives touched by a true force of nature” according to a statement from Las Vegas Sands on his passing.

Adelson has been a longtime donor to the Republican Party, giving more than $430 million to conservatives during the 2020 campaign. He was an early and longtime supporter of President Trump during his initial run for the White House.

Adelson, who is survived by his wife Mariam and five children, had a net worth of $35.6 billion as of Jan. 11, according to Forbes.

A 78 yr old SENILE WHITE MAN with liver spots will occupy the Oval Office for a little while anyway, until that faux black woman, who could not get 1 percent of the vote from her own party will sell out her mama to advance her ignorant self, i am not sure what new blood will accomplish, you tell me.

  1. As a former employee for six years and someone who admired Mr. Adelson I am heartbroken to hear about his death. He was a good man, and treated all his employees at the Venetian would respect. Prayers to his family and friends. He was more than just a Republican Supporter, he was a good man.
