The Jerusalem Post:
Billionaire Sheldon Adelson will reportedly scale back the purse strings to other Republican hopefuls looking to fill elected positions in Congress in favor of Trump.
Trump has repeatedly said during the 2016 presidential race that he would not take large donations from outside contributors, preferring to use his own resources and small-dollar donations to fund his campaign. But according to two Republican operatives with intimate knowledge of Adelson’s plan, Trump is looking to switch course and is seeking donors with deep pockets that can help fund the final stretch of the presidential race, the Times added.
Adelson, a major backer of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said his worries about Iran fueled his decision to throw his support behind Trump.
