Trump's insane foreign policy and #Syria bombing: Sponsored by Sheldon Adelson and the donor class (Thread)
Sheldon Adelson was Trump's largest campaign contributor in 2016, donating millions by way of a good old Super PAC--Future 45. jpost.com/US-Elections/L…
In addition to the $25 million in this PAC... opensecrets.org/pacs/lookup2.p…
...he also threw $5 million at Trump's inauguration. And I'm sure there's more money where that came from. opensecrets.org/news/2018/01/t…
John Bolton? Sheldon Adelson approves. lobelog.com/trumps-choice-…
Nikki Haley? Yup, Adelson has sent her money before too. commondreams.org/views/2017/09/…
Remember when Trump made the nutty decision to move the US embassy to Jerusalem? Guess who was mad at him for not moving fast enough on it? Yup, Adelson. timesofisrael.com/adelson-miffed…
Adelson also happens to have supported bombing Syria. theatlantic.com/politics/archi…
Surprise, surprise, guess who also is an Israel gov diehard and not a fan of Palestinians. Yup! haaretz.com/jewish/adelson…
Trump's desire to trash the Iran deal? Yup. alternet.org/grayzone-proje…
In fact, Sheldon Adelson is such a diplomat about Iran, he thinks we should threaten them with a nuke. Not even kidding. haaretz.com/jewish/sheldon…
Apparently, Trump listens to lunatic Adelson's money and whims over his own national security team. Good thing he's been swapping them out for neocons agreeable to the puppetmaster! alternet.org/grayzone-proje…
To sum: money in politics is the root of all evil. And WW3 is being risked because of this asshole oligarch donor and inept monsters like him.
The good news: Americans not only largely oppose senseless war, but oppose the scourge of money in politics. nytimes.com/interactive/20…
It would be wise, therefore, for any anti-war effort to shine a hard spotlight on such corrupting influences. Accepting their influence on matters as grave as war and peace should be no less than a political death sentence. /END
Bonus: This ironic tweet from the primaries, back before Trump became the puppet he claimed Rubio would be.
