At this year's White House Hanukkah event Donald Trump openly boasted that billionaire donor Miriam Adelson gave his campaign roughly $250 million and recounted the extraordinary access she and her late husband Sheldon Adelson had to him while he was president.
Jimmy Dore and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger argue that Trump’s remarks function as an unintentional confession about donor dominance, claiming U.S. foreign policy decisions toward Israel—including Jerusalem and the Golan Heights—were driven by Adelson’s priorities rather than what American voters would have wanted.

They also highlight Adelson’s on-stage reference to legal discussions about “four more years,” framing it as a shocking moment that underscores elite power operating outside democratic norms. They conclude with commentary on a media that fixates on alleged foreign influence from Russia or Venezuela while ignoring the openly admitted control Israel wields over U.S. politics.
