Sheldon Adelson Warned Trump About Impact of U.S.-China Trade War

WASHINGTON—President Trump’s sudden escalation of the trade war with China last month triggered a telephone call from billionaire casino owner Sheldon Adelson, who warned the president about the conflict’s impact on the U.S. economy and Mr. Trump’s re-election prospects, according to people familiar with the call.

During his call with Mr. Trump, Mr. Adelson focused on the broader implications of the U.S.-China trade war and their potential political consequences for Mr. Trump, according to one of the people, and not on his...

Well it hasn't stopped him from being Trump's biggest donators so far. $10 million so far.

Not at all

Trump's boss (one of them).

Has it? Really?

Better advice would come from Ken Fisher

of all the people, Adelson knows well that both Iran & China trade deal is being managed under 'Pressurize to Negotiate' strategy. Neither will cross the red lines. 'End the Unending wars' & 'timelines of 2020'

I wonder why less Chinese in his casinos?

So basically the Ch. gov. had him go to trump and tell him to cut it out. Hmm

People like Adelson are a direct threat to US representative government. GOP don’t represent the American people, they represent the wealthy Mr Adelson. Wealthy write & GOP pass legislation to benefit the wealthy donors. Serious campaign finance change needed. Vote GOP out.

Now a casino owner thinks he knows how to run a country! He only knows how to screw people out of their money!

What solution does Adelson have for China’s IP theft and unfair trade practices? And what about it’s horrendous human rights record? And why should a US worker have to compete against a PRC worker when they have no worker safety laws, no unions, no wage laws, no EPA, etc.?

China cannot be trusted on trade or tech, China has its own agenda and is an accomplished regime at stealing and lying, it’s a communist party run state, wake up and smell the coffee, China wants to be top dog the worlds economy comes second to the China regime.

A casino owner ... tells the president what to do ... beahahaha. Even more evidence the USA is now run by the mob.

Economic expansionism leads to Military expansionism China is expanding. The U.S.needs to stop supplying Chinese expansion. The problem Australia and others supply iron ore to China for many dangerous uses if the Chinese drive the earth suffers. Vote for

Macao says what?

Does he have any idea to solve these mess?🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Absolutely will

And he was wrong. China has started being very flexible again lately for some reason. Nice gotcha attempt 🙄

Uh oh. Yo don. don c’mere Don. Ayyy. Fugeddaboudit don. Lemme gives ya some very good advice Don. Let the chips fall where they will don. Here ya go you wanna suite? We godda very very nice suite. Jus you and da missuz. Whadya say don? We good?

He has business in China, no wonder.

You need to have open mind to accept others advice who are experts in their fields. But before this, you need to believe in the premise that you are pursuing a better ( true ) decision - instead of believing that you have to prove that you are right: that’s why you are in hopeles

Trump is doing what is right to do and it’s well overdue. Smart Americans will give him credit for this.

He‘s a short-sighted businessman who still cant see the danger of letting China grow. CCP, the only political party in China, practises totalitarianism. It‘s a merciless monster. Politicians and businessmen in the west have already been feeding this Nazi 2.0 monster for too long

Says the man with business interests in the PRC.

What Trump doing is trying to safe USA economy.

The first ship in their exercises against USA will be the PLN-WSJ Then maybe a carrier PLN-USCHAMBER? If you up your regular support for the PLN and PLA maybe you'll get to brand the ordinance delivering the final blow!

I assume what he means is impact his personal wealth and income

The Chinese military practices for a war against the USA. Would you guys like to brand one if their exercises? If you maybe name one of the American ships they destroy? Or are you only OK with paying for their military hardware?

China will make millions US people jobless with its cheap products. You should take a stand

We are ruled over by the most disgusting billionaire class imaginable.
