And DT knows it which is why he announced so early and keeps threatening to leave the party. Which if he does throws all his "America first" mantra out the window because he knows if he splits the party he's handing it to the Dems.
During the 2016 Republican primary campaign Trump ran as someone who cared about those who had been left behind by the economic changes of the twenty-first century. I even read somewhere that he said he would raise taxes on the rich "so high my rich friends won't talk to me." I have not found that comment on the internet, but it captures the flavor of what Trump tried to sell as his appeal.
Koch Bros. astroturfed the shit out of that Tea Party nonsense. That's where this shit started. They collected all those nuts in one place, validated all their looney beliefs, and let them elect every grifter, hustler, and snake oil salesmen they could find. They got their tax breaks and regulations repealed but now we have a country run by raving lunatics.The Koch organization had a hand in fueling the radical right “republicans” which ultimately saddled the country with the corrupt orange traitor who proceeded to destroy democratic / American values and ideals and the country, so it’s only fair that they have a hand in destroying the “republican” party.
Besides, the Koch organization got everything they wanted out of the “republican” party and their low education voters (MAGAts). - What do they care if the “republican” party as it is now constituted crashes and burns.
I’m guessing they realize they’ve lost control of the monster they helped create, and are now attempting to mitigate the damage their monster is causing.
Was it their decision to not spend money on Trump in 2016 that created the monster? Or was it their advocacy of criminal reform during the Trump administration? Or perhaps their advocacy for giving Dreamers a pathway to citizenship?The Koch organization had a hand in fueling the radical right “republicans” which ultimately saddled the country with the corrupt orange traitor who proceeded to destroy democratic / American values and ideals and the country, so it’s only fair that they have a hand in destroying the “republican” party.

You are too funny. Your article summarizes how the Kochs support Republicans, especially those with libertarian leanings. Gee what a revelation! They mobilized GOP voters during the Obama administration which, with Obama’s help, led to big wins in the House, Senate, state Governor races and state legislatures. And in 2016, while sitting on the sidelines in the presidential race, the Koch brothers mobilized GOP voter turnout across the country. You dodged my questions so I’ll assume you approved of the Koch’s support for criminal justice reform and Dreamers but are bitter over tax code reform and the outstanding federal judges that were confirmed. Tell you what…I’ll shed a tear for you when I go to the range next weekend and do my taxes next month.BabyBoobs may well be the worst RWCJ “member” when it comes to knowledge and reading comprehension.
And that ^ is saying a lot.
The Koch organization’s funding, development, and manufacturing of the far right is well documented. Tea Party anyone???
And despite the Koch organization’s fig leaf of PUBLICIZING their distancing from the corrupt orange traitor in 2016, there are these inconvenient truths:

Hope that ^ helps BabyBoobs
The Koch organization got their tax cuts and their Supreme Court justices, along with a slew of other federal judges.
Not a bad ROI.
Their cynical and self serving social justice “efforts” were just additional fig leaves.
WHAT "Koch brothers criminal justice reform"? Honestly, I haven't heard a thing about this,You are too funny.

The Koch brothers advocacy of criminal justice and prison reform goes back years. Here’s just one of many instances of their efforts.
Are you claiming systemic racism doesn't exist in every major city in the US? Because it sure seems like that, from your post.
Except that she won the popular vote.
You tried.
Can you stop being an imbecile for just one freaking day, Derpy?
What?
