Miriam Adelson, a significant financial supporter of the GOP, is committed to taking all necessary actions to ensure Trump’s victory.

Miriam Adelson addressed an audience at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey, on August 15, 2024, during an event featuring Republican presidential nominee and former President Donald Trump. Adelson, a billionaire and significant Republican donor, is committed to supporting Trump’s bid to return to the White House. Her political advisor, Andy Abboud, was overheard at the event stating that Adelson is prepared to provide whatever resources Trump needs. Abboud confirmed this in a phone interview with CNBC, emphasizing that Adelson and the Preserve America PAC, which she funds, are determined to ensure Trump’s victory.

Although Abboud did not specify the exact amount Adelson might contribute, he indicated that her financial support would be substantial. David Carney, a senior advisor to Preserve America, mentioned that the PAC plans to exceed the $100 million spent against President Joe Biden in the 2020 election. Federal Election Commission records show that Adelson has already donated $5 million to the PAC. Preserve America, which can raise and spend unlimited funds, has allocated over $40 million for television ads supporting Trump and opposing Vice President Kamala Harris, the likely Democratic nominee. These ads are set to air in key battleground states like Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, with total spending expected to reach around $60 million by Labor Day.

At the New Jersey event, Adelson passionately endorsed Trump and urged Jewish voters to support him over Harris, highlighting his past actions favorable to Israel. She received the Medal of Freedom from Trump in 2018. Abboud’s comments suggest that Adelson could become a pivotal donor in Trump’s 2024 campaign.

Miriam Adelson, the widow of casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, has a net worth exceeding $28 billion and owns a significant share of Las Vegas Sands. The Adelsons have been major financial backers of Trump since 2016, contributing $200 million to Republican causes in the 2020 election, with $90 million going to Preserve America. The PAC raised over $105 million and primarily targeted Biden. The Adelsons’ support followed policy gains during Trump’s presidency, such as relocating the U.S. embassy in Israel to Jerusalem. Despite reports of tension with Trump aides, there is no indication that Miriam Adelson will cease her financial support.
