INDIAN WELLS, Calif. – Donald Trump is so fiercely opposed by the Koch brothers network that some donors believe the powerful group will intervene to stop the billionaire if it looks like he could win the Republican presidential nomination.

"They are always very hesitant to get involved in a primary, but I think if they were going to do it, this would be the time because they just hate the guy,” said a donor who attended the Koch network’s winter retreat, held over the weekend at a luxury resort on the edge of Coachella Valley.

They can't have that.

2. It's interesting to see Rubio who is the Koch candidate

firing away at Trump with lots of support of CNN

it's quite fascinating to watch

3. Can't influence Hillary and Sanders. That Trump doesn't need

their money doesn't necessarily mean they can't influence him. He is extremely vulnerable to manipulation. For one, he is abysmally ignorant and simply cannot function on his own. For another, he needs to be admired, all the time, and I'm sure the Kochs can afford to hire the very best sycophants.

And many others also can. Right now all the big manipulators on the right are trying to reassure themselves that if necessary they could work with or control Trump and no doubt are/have been obtaining in-depth evaluations from experts in cluster B personality disorders.

I agree, Lovuian, this is fascinating, and appalling, to watch.

5. Yes and more! They are ALL scrabbling scared for OUR votes!

They have to have the presidency, and they can't have it unless we give it to them.
