The donor-class Koch network headed by GOP mega-donor Charles Koch is now admitting they failed to turn the American people against President Trump’s tariffs on Chinese imports.
In June 2018, the Koch network of organizations — which include Americans for Prosperity, Freedom Partners, and the Libre Initiative — launched a campaign against Trump’s economic nationalist policies that have helped weaken China’s economy and brought the U.S. steel industry roaring back, mostly by imposing tariffs on various foreign imports.
The goal of the Koch network’s campaign was to champion free trade at all costs by claiming tariffs are increasing prices on consumers. The campaign, though, has been such a failure that the Koch network is halting the effort.
Officials with the Koch network told CNBC that they will release new ads attacking the Trump administration’s economic nationalist agenda, but that they do not yet know what the message for those ads will be.

Where are these higher prices we were promised?
Some decades ago I rode up a Sun Valley lift once with a guy who claimed that he could not spend any time skiing at his Aspen place as it was renting for so [too?] much.
I was THINKING Elmer Fudd.
Therefore I read your mind.
Therefore I’m in league with the devil.
Therefore I must burn.
That’s what it’s basically come down to.
New kinds of witch trials. By evil people, ironically.
I agree. The Koch brothers are Libertarians of the worst sort. They’re almost like Marxists, in that economics means everything, culture be damned.
Koch Brothers hate Free Trade.
They want privileged trade. Koch brothers want royalty.
Trade with slaves and you become one.
"Trumps economic nationalist policies"So now, Presidents are supposed to ignore the welfare of their own citizens and craft economic policies that that benefit our adversaries! Because we all know "nationalist" is dog-whistle for "nazi"!
Officials with the Koch network told CNBC that they will release new ads attacking the Trump administration’s economic nationalist agenda, but that they do not yet know what the message for those ads will be.
Their message sounds loud and clear to me.
Two most annoying ads on talk radio: The Cock brothers tarrifs are bad, very bad and scary ads, and the Chamber of Croney Capitalism pro-China stop Trump ads. They don’t work because we are smarter than that.
To put what you said succinctly: all they care about is THEMSELVES; T H E I R MONEY, T H E I R WEALTH.
They don’t care if their disastrous “free (but not fair) trade” policies continue to ravage and destroy America, they don’t care at all about saving and protecting the country; you; me; your families; or mine.
All they care about is THEMSELVES and protecting T H E I R MONEY, T H E I R PRIVILEGE, T H E I R POSITION, no matter what the cost; that is all these EVIL, GREEDY rich men care about. Curse them.
President Trump is the polar opposite; while rich, and a man of great power and privilege, he has habitually put the welfare of the country, and its citizens above himself, and his interests because, despite his flaws, President Trump genuinely LOVES AMERICA and continually has the country, and its people’s best interests at heart.
That is why they hate him, and everyone who supports him, so much.
May almighty God bless, protect and keep President Trump, his family, and his entire administration. In Jesus name, amen.
Am I stupid, or are they and the media stupid?
Trump wants NO TARIFFS. He’s asking for a level playing field. China and the EU and all of them, charge Tariffs on our goods, we don’t.
So, why is this fact going on noticed by the likes of the Koch brother and people like a hole Romney?
If we’d all stand together, and show our solidarity, China and the other countries would go along with this.

>>> they will release new ads attacking the Trump administration <<<
What a pathetic bunch of America haters.
If you think like the globalist Krotch Bros. then you are NOT a patriot because the prerequisite to patriotism is nationalism. Protectionism is the life blood of nationalism.
Every time Krotch Bros. dies a patriot gets his wings.
I would half of Free Republic is made up of globalist Free Traitors™.
His “carbon footprint” is the size of Romania.
Core inflation = 1%. LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They also want to be able to set wages for all workers from gardeners to rocket scientists. Just like commies.
Vote Republican ans be an unemployed globalist or vote Democrats and be an employed socialist serf.
