Koch Brothers Considered Launching Anti-Trump Campaign

But balked over fear of counterattack.

Billionaire industrialists Charles G. and David H. Koch allegedly considered forming an anti-Donald Trump campaign. According to a Tuesday report in The New York Times, the Kochs had "preliminary conversations" about using their respective financial networks to undermine the insult-spewing Republican's candidacy. Hedge-fund billionaire Paul Singer has reportedly also had similar discussions. Both parties, however, have balked at the idea out of reluctance to incur the infamously vicious Trump's public wrath. “You have to deal with Trump berating you every day of the week,” an anonymous strategist linked to both groups explained to the Times.
