What a truly loathesome, despicable toady.

How do they keep a straight face trying to whip up hysteria about George Soros? Where we have one billionaire activist they have twenty, and Soros doesn’t own an entire party.

Since Adelson has vast business interests in Macau and Israel he’s essentially funneling illegal foreign money into U.S. elections.

Best thing they could do is cobble together a larger sum—$30 billion sounds about right—and offer it to Trump if he would not be horrible for the next six months. And that money would be wasted too. He can’t stop being horrible for three days in a row. So that $30 million’s a bad investment there, Shel. Shoulda spent it on plastic surgery.

Trump would just take the money, laugh, waggle his ass in their faces and redouble his horribleness.
Did you ever hear that line about the definition of an honest politician?
Once he’s been bought, he stays bought.
Trump couldn’t even clear that very low bar.

I don’t usually wish harm on anyone, but the only thing this guy should be kicking right now, is the bucket.

Between Adelson, Murdoch, Trump, the Koch brothers, and other ‘early-20th century billionaire’ octogenarian holdouts, the destruction of our planet, our nation and our society is simply immeasurable.

The sooner they all kick that bucket down the road, the better! We need a new generation of thinkers, like the Elon Musks of the world to take the baton.

Out foul spots!

If you ever wanted to see a bigger perversion of democracy, look no further than the modern GOP and it’s roster of loathsome American oligarchs.

The Republican Party of the 21st century has betrayed every single precept of democracy in the name of naked lust for power and the ability to loot this once great nation. Every single enabler of the GOP since Ronald Reagan should have to answer for charges of treason.

Sometimes he seems to be in a kind of trough for a while, like between surges of manic tweeting. Some future historian will chart the fresh-outrage cycle but I still think he’s been relatively quiet for a few days at a time. Not to the point you can enjoy it, knowing he’s going to start up again at any time and wondering what fuckery he’s up to behind closed doors, but still. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

As you say, we don’t always know what he’s up to behind closed doors, so I’m sticking with, if he’s awake he’s doing something horrible. :slight_smile:

Adleson got what he wanted from Trump by getting the Iran Nuclear Deal scrapped.

Now it’s time to pay up for it.

Yes. That IS how it works.

Kevin Kamenetz, Baltimore County Admin and Dem candidate for MD governor, dies at the age of 60 and this guy keeps going like some metastasizing cancer. Where is the justice indeed?

I can think of several GOP House members that hate Jews but will gladly accept their largesse. Let’s see, there’s Scalise, Gohmert, Steve King, Blackburn,…
