Dillon Claims Miriam Adelson Funded Trump on Condition of Iran Regime Change

What was said

"You also have like a lot of the Republican donor class, people like Miriam Adelson, that have given Trump a lot of money who are very fervently pro-Iran war and believe that regime needs to be taken out. And they started lobbying for that, I think, many years before it happened. So I think he, I think it was kind of understood that if we give you this money and you win again, we're whacking Iran."

Tim Dillon alleged that Republican megadonor Miriam Adelson and others in the donor class made it understood to Trump that funding his campaign came with expectations of regime change in Iran. Dillon suggested this donor pressure campaign had been building for years before Trump took military action, framing the Iran strikes as a quid pro quo arrangement.
