Koch Network Re-Evaluates Midterm Strategy

April 24, 2018 at 9:18 am EDT By Taegan Goddard

“The network of groups affiliated with billionaire conservative donors Charles and David Koch are taking a new look at which Republican candidates to support this year,” The Hill reports.

“The groups still plan to spend up to $400 million on politics and policies this election cycle, but they’re deeply frustrated by what they view as the GOP’s refusal to take up major legislation ahead of the midterm election.”

“Some of the network’s donors privately tell us that the House majority looks like a lost cause, potentially accelerating the movement of money toward protecting the Senate majority.”

They could switch their $400 million support to Democrats who would follow policies that would enhance the general welfare of the population as a whole, and give their consumer base that made them rich in the first place a chance to have the money to spend to make them even richer.

They don't seem totally stupid, maybe it'll dawn on them one fine day.
