A day after the Democratic debate in Las Vegas, Sen. Elizabeth Warren placed a full-page ad in a newspaper owned by billionaire Sheldon Adelson revealing the sum he'd pay under her wealth tax.
Adelson, who has a net worth of $39.6 billion, according to the ad, would pay $2.3 billion in taxes in the first year under her plan. The figure represents "less than 6% of his wealth," the ad reads.Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren is interviewed on MSNBC inside the spin room at Bally's Las Vegas Hotel & Casino after the Democratic presidential primary debate on February 19, 2020 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Adelson, who has a net worth of $39.6 billion, according to the ad, would pay $2.3 billion in taxes in the first year under her plan."With that small wealth tax, we can invest in Nevada families," the ad in The Las Vegas Review-Journal reads in bold print. The ad lists four potential areas in which the money can be spent: cancellation of student debt in the state, 91,000 more families eligible for free childcare, additional funding for nearly 500,000 school students and the elimination of tuition in public universities and colleges in Nevada.
The ad is not the first time Warren has singled out Adelson. In October, Warren in a tweet called him "a casino tycoon & 1 of Trump's billionaire buddies."
Arriadna Sheldon Adelson was Trump's 1 campaign donator in 2016. In the 2018 midterm elections he donated more than anyone else to the GOP, over 100 Million.
Went they run for president lots of promises can't accomplish they want the votes. When they become president they forgot all the promise
Sheldon paid an exorbitant sum of money. This is a case for tax cuts. 6% of his entire wealth!!! That’s insane
I don't agree with attacking private people. Some things should be off limits. It doesn't matter if he has money.
It must be miserable to be so angry all of the time

Is Elizabeth Warren Being Erased?A new narrative to explain for the decline of Elizabeth Warren’s campaign is emerging after her disappointing results in New Hampshire, where she finished in fourth. Warren, according to her campaign and supporters, is being erased by mainstream media outlets and cable news, the same outlets that last summer and fall covered her glowingly as she rose in the polls and released plan after ambitious plan. Instead of the coverage that Warren’s camp would rather receive, what we’re getting from the political press is obituary after obituary on her campaign, all asking the question, what happened? or perhaps she tried to play the 'progressive' card while not championing the most popular progressive issues, gaining no traction, while being too late to catch the voters in the other lane if she switches now. she aimed at a target audience that didn't like her pro-war voting. Yes. Like NBC dropping her from their polling questions?
