Eric Schneiderman’s unseemly gambling ‘profits’

We understand why Attorney General Eric Schneiderman has declared war on fantasy-sports sites: There’s headlines to be had in going after the enormously successful DraftKings and FanDuel.

But Schneiderman’s thundering allegations that the sites engage in illegal gambling is a bit rich — given how the “gaming” world has fattened his campaign coffers.

As The Post’s Carl Campanile reported Monday, Schneiderman has taken in over $150,000 from gambling interests dating to his 2010 run for attorney general. That includes:

•  $48,350 from the New York Gaming Association — the umbrella group of nine racetrack slot casinos, including Genting’s Resorts World Casino at Aqueduct.

•   Another $40,000 from Genting between 2011 and 2014. (Plus: Jennifer Cunningham, the AG’s ex-wife and trusted adviser, counts Genting as a client.)

•   $36,000 from Jeff Gural — owner of upstate’s Tioga Downs racetrack and casino.

•  $25,000 from Ronald Perelman — whose company makes electronic machines for casinos and government-run lotteries.

Schneiderman’s claim that he’s out to save New Yorkers from addiction to daily sports betting rings false when he’s so happy to take gifts from the gambling industry.
