Adelson, ranked 31th on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index with a fortune estimated at $22.6 billion, spent millions of dollars trying to get Republicans elected in 2012.
While Adelson has yet to disclose his Republican presidential pick, he also publishes an Israeli newspaper that has been supportive of Marco Rubio.
Rubio received singular treatment by the newspaper, Israel Hayom, when he declared his candidacy in April for the 2016 nomination. The announcement merited a front-page headline and led to an interview with the paper’s foreign editor, who wrote that “Rubio may be the most pro-Israel presidential candidate that America has to offer.”
