President Trump on Tuesday slammed the Koch brothers.

President Trump on Tuesday took to Twitter and slammed the billionaire conservative donor Koch brothers.
"The globalist Koch Brothers, who have become a total joke in real Republican circles, are against Strong Borders and Powerful Trade," Trump wrote. "I never sought their support because I don't need their money or bad ideas. They love my Tax & Regulation Cuts, Judicial picks & more."
"I made them richer. Their network is highly overrated, I have beaten them at every turn. They want to protect their companies outside the U.S. from being taxed, I'm for America First & the American Worker - a puppet for no one. Two nice guys with bad ideas. Make America Great Again!" Trump continued.
According to the Washington Post, Trump's tweets "followed a weekend gathering at which top officials affiliated with billionaire industrialist Charles Koch sought to distance the network from Trump and his base in the Republican Party, citing tariff and immigration policies and 'divisive' rhetoric out of Washington."
Charles Koch also recently released a video warning against the rise of protectionism in response to new technologies.
"We're seeing a rise in protectionism for countries, organizations and individuals," Koch says in the video. "They're doing whatever they can to close themselves off from the new, hold onto the past and prevent change. This is a natural tendency, but it's a destructive one."
