Adelson owns casinos and now a newspaper from he casino capitol of the US but he isn’t much of as gambler-just take a look at his political picks.
Plus he looks like the walking dead, anyone check his temperature lately?

43

Photos I’ve seen of him indicate he’s in poor health…doubt he’s going to be around for that much longer.

44

2 to 1 he’s dead before the end of Hillary’s first term.

And, what will he do with all of his money? Donate it to science, give to a pet, invent self-sustaining casinos?

Dung in its natural state is a good organic fertilizer.

Burning peat makes me think of Ireland and all the Jews with links to the Emerald Isle who made positive contributions to the world.

And that fucking combover. Look where it starts! Might as well start the weave from the hair on his back.

48

Give enough to AIPAC that they can literally purchase politicians outright?
