Miriam Adelson, a billionaire Republican megadonor, is dedicated to supporting former President Donald Trump to help him get back to the White House. Her political aide, Andy Abboud, revealed that Adelson is willing to provide whatever support Trump needs to secure victory in the next election. Adelson and her political action committee, Preserve America, are prepared to contribute significant funds to support Trump’s campaign efforts. Abboud confirmed that Adelson’s financial backing for Trump will be substantial, although the exact amount has not been disclosed.
Preserve America, the super PAC supported by Adelson, plans to spend over $100 million in support of Trump, exceeding their spending during the 2020 election. Adelson has already donated $5 million to the PAC, with more contributions expected to follow. The super PAC has reserved millions of dollars in television ads targeting Vice President Kamala Harris, the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee. The goal is to support Trump and oppose Harris in key states such as Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin leading up to the election.
During a campaign event at Trump’s golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey, Adelson endorsed Trump and urged Jewish voters to support him over Harris. Adelson emphasized the importance of Israel’s security and prosperity in her endorsement of Trump, emphasizing that the White House should be his again come January. Abboud’s statement that Adelson is committed to doing whatever it takes to help Trump suggests that she may play a crucial role as a donor in the 2024 election cycle.
Miriam Adelson, widow of late casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, has a net worth exceeding $28 billion and controls over half of Las Vegas Sands. She and her late husband have been significant donors to Trump since the 2016 election, contributing $200 million to Republicans during the 2020 election cycle, with a substantial portion directed to Preserve America. Their support for Trump was motivated by access to him and policy wins during his administration, such as the relocation of the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem.
Despite reports of tensions within Preserve America, there is no indication that Miriam Adelson will cease her financial support for Trump. Adelson’s unwavering commitment to backing Trump, as outlined by Abboud, suggests that she will continue to provide substantial contributions to support his reelection efforts. As one of the top donors in Republican politics, Adelson’s support could be instrumental in shaping the outcome of the upcoming election and securing Trump’s return to the White House.
