Ha! These Koch guys had everything figured out. They found some Mormon idiot from Mass and some puppet from Wisconsin. Oh and the chinless idiot from Kentucky.

The second worst thing that ever happened to these two old queens (maybe they should change sexes like the matrix people), was a billionaire becoming President.

The first worst thing for these two scumbags was that the one billionaire they hated became POTUS. Trump, in their eyes, is not a legit billionaire. He may be only worth a shockingly low 3 or 4 billion dollars.

Really sucks when you buy damaged goods like Eddie Munster. The only guy ever in history to lose a debate to Joe Biden. Kids in kindergarten threw rocks at Biden when he was in 5th grade. Mostly because he touched them inappropriately .

Now the Koch’s are lashing out. They lost. They lost the day Trump ran for President. Take Trump out or Trump goes on to be in the pantheon of George Washington and Ronald Reagan. It’s never going back to their way of thinking. Battle lines are drawn and these two idiots are actually not sure if they shouldn’t back AOC. That’s how much Trump broke the world.

Their model is broken. There is no such thing as a neocon anymore. Their entire worldview, their perceived power, their ability to influence is gone.

Welcome to our America old douchebag Koch guys who nobody gives a shit about. Move to Venezuela. Punk bitchez.

The Evile Koch Bros meme went the way of the (assassinate) Dubya (Bush 43) meme.

That's because Progressives have had their brains harvested by the Koch Bros cheap field hands, soon to be outsourced to AI.

The KOCH brothers are open border, chamber of commerce, cheap labor folks...

THEY are the reason no other Republican would touch Immigration before TRUMP, because they all needed their money.. and still do.

DOn’t kid yourself... the GOPe is just as much an enemy of the people as the the LEFT.... May be motivated by different reasons but want the same ends.

The KOCH’s aren’t as evil as SOROS, but they are not interested in whats best for America, only their back pockets.

The Koch downhill slide continues. Too bad. I once thought the brothers really had their stuff together.

And all too many of these idiot businessmen can’t see much beyond their next payroll. Haven’t they been observing the sort of legislation leftists in Congress and in various states have been proposing?

Caps on executive compensation, Net Worth taxes on folks worth more than so many million dollars, a California state tax proposal to increase state corporate taxes an amount equal to the corporate tax savings under the Trump tax cuts, etc.

With their open borders lunacy, the Koch’s and others are importing people from Third World nations who will be very happy to vote for candidates who promise to tax the rich until they are no longer all that rich.

B/C Pence sure as hell isn’t the one to do it!

Very true, I was referring to Pence as a Paul Ryan Republican well before Trump picked him for VP. Was very disappointed to see that pick.

The socialist system makes the leaders fabulously rich and powerful. Even Kim Jong Un of N. Korea, an impoverished nation, gets to take that nation’s entire wealth and use it at his own discretion. All opposition is killed. He is a despotic king. In short, socialism is neo-aristocracy.

The Kochs see themselves as part of the aristocracy in that system.

Now they have money, and money buys power.

But it doesn’t buy the ultimate power of a feudal aristrocracy

This is because Gallagher, Toomey and Sasse all suck at the Koch trough. You could call them Koch suckers.

If you haven’t noticed, Trump is licking the Chinese government’s boots right now.

I wouldn’t conclude that.

Progress is being made according to the President.

I prefer the 25% tariffs, because I think the Chinese will violate any agreement that they make.

We must never forget, however, that Trump’s deal with China requires approval by the Congress. That limits him because our politicians are all sell-outs.

Progress is being made in caving in to the Chinese and begging them to start buying our soybeans again.

Of course the Chinese will violate any agreement. But Trump won’t move to 25% tariffs because he’s terrified that the stock market will go down.

No, Trump’s deal with China does not require approval by the Congress.

I think you are misreading the president.

You are also not taking into account the requirement for Congress to approve any deal AND that they are sold out to China.

So, be patient and let this play out.

Congress does not have to approve any deal. Where are you getting that nonsense?

The new US, Mexico, Canada deal has to be approved by Congress.

The Iran Deal had to be approved by congress.

So, it’s not nonsense.

The president can unilaterally impose tariffs, but a DEAL has to get congressional approval.

Well, I guess not everything that’s wrong is nonsense, but your point is both.

***“I look forward to working with members of Congress,” Trump said. “It’s been so well reviewed I don’t expect to have much of a problem,” he said of garnering congressional approval.

But lawmakers and experts have said the White House has some work to do to get enough votes.***
