US casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, who chairs the Venetian Macau, has voiced support for the Republic Party’s presumptive nominee, the Financial Times reported last week.

According to the report, Adelson, who was the single largest Republican donor in the 2012 election, said he would back Trump after he beat the other 16 Republican contenders in what was the conservative party’s most competitive primary race in modern US history.

“Yes, I am Republican, he’s a Republican,” Adelson told The New York Times when asked if he would back Trump. “He’s our nominee… He was one of the 17. He won fair and square.”
