Trump: Stalking horse for Koch Brothers?.. let's play . .

Apparently, Mike Pence has been a Kochbaby for a long time. Let's say that, as has been speculated here, Trump just wants to WIN.. He has no desire to actually do the job as President.

Might the Kochs and their billions fund the ticket with the understanding that their boy will inherit the job when Trump just wants to wash his hands of the whole thing?
