Trump to dine with Adelson at White House
President Trump will dine Thursday with GOP mega-donor Sheldon Adelson at the White House.
“It’s social. There’s no set agenda,” White House press secretary Sean Spicer said when announcing the dinner.
Chief of staff Reince Priebus is also expected to attend the event.

Adelson and his wife donated as much as $21 million to back Trump in the 2016 campaign, according to some estimates. The casino magnate gave to numerous pro-Trump organizations and Republican PACs.
Adelson has met with Trump several times in recent months, according to the Post, including a private meeting in New York City before his inauguration and an exclusive lunch at the U.S. Capitol with several congressional leaders last month.
