Miriam Adelson Bought Trump?

Tucker Carlson

The speaker questions suspicious financial backing of Trump's campaign, particularly focusing on Miriam Adelson's $250 million contribution. They suggest this large donation from someone with foreign allegiances raises concerns about what was expected in return.

Summary

The discussion centers on questioning whether there was a deliberate plan behind certain events and financial backing in Trump's campaign. The speaker acknowledges that while they don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist, there were clear signs of questionable character that were already known. They reference the Butler incident (likely referring to the assassination attempt) and note that investigations into it have been obstructed or hindered. The conversation then shifts to focus on the substantial financial contribution from Miriam Adelson - $250 million - which the speaker finds suspicious. They argue that while large amounts of money are common in presidential politics, this particular donation raises red flags because it came from someone they describe as having 'obvious and demonstrated allegiance to a foreign power.' The speaker questions what Adelson expected to receive in return for such a massive investment in Trump's campaign, suggesting the answer to that question is apparent.
