It is wonderful to see the Donald exposed. There is a headline story over at CNBC today here called “Koch donor retreat convenes in Colorado under Trump’s shadow”. Guess Colorado really isn’t all that central to Donald because:
Wealthy Republican donors are descending on Colorado Springs this weekend to attend the Charles and David Koch bi-annual retreat where the cloud of Donald Trump hovers over the rich influencers.
...
Trump, coincidentally or not, held a rally in Colorado Springs Friday despite being 10 points behind in the latest poll in Colorado, a gap that explains why Democrat Hillary Clinton pulled advertising from the state.
Politico reported Friday that members of the Trump finance team attempted to meet with the Kochs but the request was denied.
Any bet the event was held to try to get access to the retreat. Bet the Donald doesn’t mention that he has told “talk to the hand” by the big boys?

Donald now says we got it all wrong — he turned the Koch Brothers down
Honest Abe Donny is at it again. After Politico reported Donny’s finance team was told to talk to the hand by the Koch Bretheren, Donny has cleared up the air.
CNBC now says:
Donald Trump says fundraising 'crushed' goals, rejects money from Koch brothers
Yet on Saturday, Trump insisted that he, in fact, had spurned the Kochs' entreaties. The real estate mogul dismissed them as little more than political puppet masters just as they were poised to meet with other Republican donors at a retreat in Colorado.
I turned down a meeting with Charles and David Koch. Much better for them to meet with the puppets of politics, they will do much better!
You betting on Politco reporting or Donny’s tweet?
