Trump went to kiss The Sheldon ring again but it didn't go too well and now Republicans are trying desperately to woo Soros.
GOP officials panicked after ‘contentious’ Trump phone call with one of the Republican Party’s top donors
According to a report from Politico,
Donald Trump may have alienated one of the Republican Party’s top donors last week after complaining to Las Vegas businessman Sheldon Adelson that he didn’t think that billionaire was doing enough to bolster his faltering re-election campaign.
That phone call — described as “contentious” — has Republican Party officials panicked that Adelson may hold back million-dollar contributions to the party in an election year where GOP candidates are
already struggling to hang onto their seats.
According to one insider who was privy to the call, “it was apparent the president had no idea how much Adelson, who’s donated tens of millions of dollars to pro-Trump efforts over the years, had helped him. Adelson chose not to come back at Trump.”
Word of the turn the call took has shaken up high-ranking Republican officials who have previously been able to count on major contributions from the billionaire, with Politico reporting, “They rushed to smooth things over with him, but the damage may have been done.”
“The president needs the money.
“Now, Republican leaders are pleading to billionaires for help. Trump advisers are pining for new outside groups to form, and the White House is growing anxious to see what Adelson, who has pumped hundreds of millions of dollars into Republican super PACs over the past decade, will do.”
