GOP Mega-Donor Sheldon Adelson: Amnesty, Driver's Licenses, Bank Accounts for Illegals

Las Vegas hotel magnate and prominent GOP donor Sheldon Adelson believes all of the country's illegal immigrants should be put on a path to citizenship and given driver's licenses and bank accounts while on that path.

A post-election poll showed that former House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) was ousted because of his support for amnesty legislation, but Adelson said he hoped that would not derail it.

"Let’s start by instituting a process in which all undocumented immigrants receive permits to legally work here," he wrote at Politico, even as the country faces a crisis with illegal immigrant children flooding across the border and overwhelming the system. "Let’s provide them with the opportunity to get driver’s licenses and bank accounts—simple things that we all take for granted."

So he doesn’t just want to surrender to the invaders — he wants to help them cement their victory over America.

This greedy POS is exactly why this country is going belly up.

I don't even want to be in the same state with this trash, let alone the same political party.

He’s also bankrolling all the anti online-gambling garbage. And he made some comment about nuking Iran. He’s a crazy McCainiac and should be ignored.

This cheap bastard is worth what, $27 billion or something like that?

Can’t he afford to hire and pay decent wages to American citizens who want to work in his mega-hotels?

Adelson makes me sick.

.
He’s a fool.

(1) We’ve got plenty here already that don’t have enough work. If we’ve got 47% on food stamps, we don’t need more poor.

(2) They’re going to need more than driver’s licenses and bank accounts. They’re going to need the insurance cards so that taxpayers can fund their healthcare.

(3) Who’s doing their background checks? How many committed murder and other violent crimes?

(4) Who’s paying the cost of educating and housing all these illegals? You talk about overwhelming the system. In case he hasn’t noticed, this nation is already BROKE.

(5) We’ve got enough people living in slums. Why are we going to house these illegals when we’ve got so many poor already?

(6) We’ve got laws. They can come here legally.

This clown is one of those behind pushing Jeb to run.

Sheldon Adelson is one of the key players behind the GOPe. He’s throwing down for Jeb in 2016.

You don’t hear democrats attacking Adelson like they do the Koch brothers. That’s for a very good reason.

Adelson is sleaze. He probably spreads money around to any and all parties/candidates willing to do his bidding.

True, but Adelson and Koch Bros. are Libertarians who support illegal immigration.
