now Sheldon Adelson of course is a huge Republican donor
hugh to newt gingrich's presidential campaign
in 2012 fifteen million dollars
just a new gingrich and if you're a member of course newt Gingrich was a
miserable failure
and didn't even come in second I the coming third I'm not quite sure
paid but he came in or near the top in terms of having a realistic chance to
win the nomination which of course Mitt Romney won on the republican side handle
some imported millions in the mid Romney the
so wide array guesses on how much you wind up
wound up spending overall in 2012 $25 million to $40 million
but a lot of it wasn't dark money could be traced but we do know about the
the 15 million that he gave newt Gingrich so how'd that work out form
well obviously didn't go over that well
he got nothin porn so apparently he recognized that
the washing pose a story about a they say this time that'll sons
are plotting their investments based on not on personal loyalty
but are much more strategic game to help select the Republican nominee
they believe will have broad appeal to an increasingly diverse national
electorate in other words we knew newt Gingrich we really like them so %um 15
million bucks
give this time around were actually try to pick a winner now
there's a lot of interest that he has with the government governors
investigating him for many different things ago in the poor crop right
practices act
for the bribery he might have done in China for his casinos there
so he's got an interest in buying a president I would be a nice purchase for
him
this time he actually just like to buy the one that actually wins
so his top adviser
nd Abboud said the bar for support is going to be much higher
there's going to be a lot more scrutiny in other words
newt Gingrich boy who didn't know what we were doing there
the bar going to be a lot are the new to this time well it's a little
embarrassing for nude
but of course was much more embarrassing is how our political system works
because I mean this his and obvious published
attempt to bribe the next possible president
so nobody's gonna play along with this rent is a global
I think above the say I okay I've got an auctioneer I would like to come in
and try to win my millions of dollars so that
you will serve me after you be present when he's not on all believable system
if it happened in a third world country would make fun of it we should look at
that they're just buying them
the leadership of the country unbelievable right so of course nobody's
gonna go to
Las Vegas in court have night you know where this is going
here the four Republican possible nominees
that are going to cases ring a former Florida Governor Jeb Bush
the Jersey Governor Chris Christie wisconsin Governor Scott Walker and ohio
governor john casick
they're all going to Vegas not coming to them
he's the boss they're not the boss they're gonna go to him
and they are you on their hands and knees and he would take his digits
and put it to their mouse okay there to kiss his ring and say
Sheldon call you are make me an offer I can't refuse by the way
Dogri carries it would be like 10,000 bucks but you pick the day taking all
money they'll sell themselves for cheap
but in his case he has a lot of money so that's why they go to do this
and it's reported in the press like oh hey it's okay that's what's happening no
big deal
the real news story is
the democracies Garnett we don't know democracy we have an open auction
and the richest people in the country are just going to simply by
our candidates its unbelievable issued shocked the conscience
the fact that it doesn't shock the conscience anymore is actually the most
depressing part of the story
the debut this perfectly normal there's one way we could fix it
we gotta packer people the other and we fought back
and we actually fought for democracy well we call that pack
maybe a wolf pack maybe we know whether their website called Wolfpack dot com
the push for an amendment to get scummy money out of politics
then people wouldn't go to kiss up to Sheldon Adelson and tell 'em
all the wonderful things are gonna do for if he buys the presidency
maybe we would actually have people call
to this citizens but they're supposed to represent
and to try to work for them will not be amazing you don't get money out of
politics
you'll see a new story like this over and over and over again
and Sheldon Adelson couldn't buy I a president 2012
well he my just due in 2016 to be doesn't dude in 2016 is gonna come back
with even more money in 2020
and eventually he'll buy himself a president
