Others bet more. Look at the amounts he gets from his grifts or selling Medals of Freedom to really impressive rounds of applause..On September 23, 2016, Adelson announced a $25 million donation to Trump's presidential campaign, as part of a $65 million donation to the Republican electoral campaign for 2016. This rendered Adelson by far the biggest donor in either party (Republicans or Democrats) in the 2016 election cycle.[14] It also makes him by far the largest donor to Donald Trump's White House bid.[14] Adelson was the largest donor to Trump's inaugural celebrations, with a $5 million donation to the celebrations.[122]
According to federal records, from 2010 through 2020, Adelson and his wife donated more than $500 million to the Republican party campaigns and super PACs.[123]
