Trump Fired Back Hard After the Koch Network Says It Won’t Endorse as Many Republicans
After Koch network political organization Americans for Prosperity announced it wouldn’t support the Republican candidate in a key Senate race, President Donald Trump fired back on Twitter on Tuesday morning.
Trump tore into the powerful Koch brothers, saying he didn’t need their support or money for political success. . .

Tim Phillips, the president of Americans for Prosperity, singled out Rep. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) as an example of the type of Republican the organization would no longer be supporting, saying his record on financial issues was inconsistent. . .
Trump’s response to the Koch network criticism of GOP lawmakers was to say the Koch brothers were overrated and not respected by “real” Republicans.
“I never sought their support because I don’t need their money or bad ideas,” Trump wrote. “They love my Tax & Regulation Cuts, Judicial picks & more. I made them richer. Their network is highly overrated, I have beaten them at every turn. They want to protect their companies outside the U.S. from being taxed, I’m for America First & the American Worker — a puppet for no one. Two nice guys with bad ideas. Make America Great Again!” (Read more from “Trump Fired Back Hard After the Koch Network Says It Won’t Endorse as Many Republicans” HERE)
