You should live here in Vegas...there was a time in the 90's and 00's, not as much today thankfully - that the Reid family ruled here completely. Harry was a senior senator who damn near ran the BLM and Reclamation himself (most of the land in Nevada is federal land under BLM and it is sold off in parcels for development or other activities - a giant cash cow then in wildly growing Vegas). And then there was Rory Reid, Harry's son, who was a long time chair of the Clark County Commission - which ruled over development permits and land use planning in Clark County, including The Strip.
I don't care who you are, you didn't build a thing here - even if your name was Sheldon Adelson or Steve Wynn - without kissing the Reid Ring. There is a very large high rise hotel built in the late 90's towering above the Strip, emblazoned across the top in bright, large lights seen from everywhere on The Strip is one word: TRUMP. Yeah he contributed to Reid. That building - like any building in Vegas including those built by the aforementioned Republican money-men Wynn and Adelson - would not be there without that contribution.
