Sheldon Adelson, the multibillionaire casino mogul and Republican Party megadonor, has died at age 87.

I think his pro-Israel nutjob wife will keep giving big to the GOP even after they subverted the US democracy. But time marches on.

RIP. Sure beats a trial/prison.

RIP.

Completely unnecessary...

He has ensured misery and conflict for millions. What a fine humanitarian.

Another font of rabid Republicanism dead. Mitch has to be feeling mighty lonely with his masters dying.

Good riddance. His support for Trump in 2016 helped get him in office. He also coerced Trump into ditching the JCPOA and tried hard to goad him to into war with Iran on behalf of Israel.

He has also relentlessly fucked with Israeli politics ensuring the conflict with the Palestinians has no end.

No more money pump for us to be held hostage by Israel.

Wifey.

They are from the first wife and he became a conservative nut job after wife #2 influenced him.

 

[shortylickens]

to show how completely out of touch with reality I am:

never heard his name before.

 

[amenx]

It appears his wife was the real driving force behind his politics.

Pretty much the only decent thing you can say about Trump is he resisted that demand from many of his side of the asile.

Sad that this dude's dieing act was to help Republicans to continue to fuck the country up.
