Koch network says it will stop funding Nikki Haley's presidential bid
NBC News ^ | February 25th, 2024 | By Katherine Doyle, Emma Barnett and Ali Vitali

The political network financed largely by billionaire Charles Koch announced Sunday that it will no longer spend funds to support Nikki Haley's presidential bid.

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday swept to victory over Haley in South Carolina, her home state, where she once served as governor.

In an email obtained by NBC News, which was confirmed by two sources who received it, the network's advocacy arm said that following Haley’s loss in South Carolina, the group no longer believes it can make a meaningful difference for her in the race, senior adviser Emily Seidel said. Instead, Americans for Prosperity Action will focus its resources down the ballot on House and Senate races.

They're kind of late to the game.

I started not funding Nikki Haley's campaign years ago.

Which anti-Trump candidate will they support now? RFK Jr. or just go directly to Biden? Or have they given up on the presidency and are supporting Mitch and his globalists?

She’s starting to remind me of that horrible show: “Dr. Quinn, Busybody Woman”. Something like that.

She’s a democrat plant. Even Gavin Newsom pretty much came right out and said so. He said her attacks against Trump have been more effective than anything the Democrat party has done and is keeping the Republican party from unifying around one candidate. He said they want her to stay in the race as long as possible and keep up the good work.

A brutal X (twitter) headline from @AFpost

This is an important article that deserves a bump.

Koch was the original Nikki booster that got her started.

Nikki is now Zombie Nikki.

A little more detail—from other articles it looks like the Koch family donated 30 million of the 75 million that Nikki spent so far on the campaign—40%.

They were the largest donor by far.

At this point the campaign is running on fumes—spending $1M on advertising in Super Tuesday states—a drop in the bucket compared to previous expenditures.

Hint to any vendors out there—make Nikki’s campaign pay in cash up front—if you don’t you will probably get stiffed.

Next Question. Will the Koch brothers support Trump now?
