New York Times, 1/12/2021
Mr. Adelson’s influence was on display in March 2014, when four prospective presidential candidates — Govs. Chris Christie of New Jersey, Scott Walker of Wisconsin and John Kasich of Ohio, and former Gov. Jeb Bush of Florida — went to Las Vegas for what critics called an audition before the Republican Party’s most coveted and fearsome moneyman.
What choice did Li'l Scooter have?
In 2012, Adelson wrote him a check for $250,000 to help defray the cost of his recall election. Five weeks after the March 29th ring kissing, Adelson and his second wife Miriam each wrote him checks for $10,000. Mere chicken feed, in comparison. A 'good boy' pat on the head.
