In reply to the discussion: Trump Blasts 'Globalist' Koch Brothers as 'Total Joke': 'I Don't Need Their Money' [View all]bunny planet
(10,875 posts)He's got Sheldon Adelson and the Mercers money too....it's the clash of the Titans, I mean billionaires. Still don't think the rest of the GOP who depend on the Koch Bros to get elected will be too pleased. Wonder if the Kochs like Kavanaugh?
to trumps point: They love my Tax & Regulation Cuts, Judicial picks & more. - that's true.
The Koch brothers have some major issues with trump -
but trumps trade policies are hurting their businesses
trump has succeeded in waking up Americans - and this has put the Kochs long-term agenda in danger. The more activism inspired by trump, the less influence ALEC and AstroTurf groups like the Tea Party will have on Americans.
Thats why theyre complaining about trump being divisive - they dont want people paying attention to whats going on.
Plus, they are Libertarians with a capital L - don't believe for a second that they have any good intentions for our democracy.....so centrist corporate leaning Democrats shouldn't fall for this carrot and stick routine of the Kochs. They don't have any one's interests at heart but their own of course but they will use either party to get their agenda back on track. I also think, since Kochs specifically mentioned Heidi Heitcamps opponent as a GOP Senator they can't support....that they are trying to peel off Democrats from maintaining a strong united front in voting for Kavanaugh... Don't fall for it Heidi.
