Not as big a deal as it was in the last election. The Koch's were supporting Scott Walker and that little twerp bowed out early when Trump started dominating the debate polling. If you want to look up a genuine negative force looking to park his cash in this election check out Sheldon Adelson. Owns the Sands Casino/Resort chain. Bought the major daily newspaper in Las Vegas a month or so ago. Killed any stories examining his activities both in the election and in his questionable dealings in how he runs his hotels and casinos (slave labour in Macao, in bed with organized crime in Vegas, typical filthy gambler crap that's been around since Bugsy Siegel.). The biggest thing about Adelson is that he's a Jewish hyper-Likudnik. Wants eternal war to be fought by the US on behalf of Israel. If one of his toadies won, or he calls in his markers with the TeaBircher Congress, the US could be neck deep in a quagmire in Iran that would make the one in Iraq look like a Napoleonic military success story. Could be the most dangerous man in American politics today, especially after the Citizens United SCOTUS decision removed all restrictions on how he (and others like the Kochs, and George Soros too) want to use their money to buy entire elections. This is what will kill off what's left of American democracy, not guys like Trump that can finance their own campaign and who are rich enough to tell the big money lobby groups to piss off.

You sound like Jan Brady.

I am amused at all the $ they are flushing down the toilet. They want so badly to be the puppeteer, I wouldn't shed a tear if they went bankrupt.

Looks like their in direct competition with Warren Buffet to see who can own the White House next.

or maybe it could be this much.

Warren Buffett has fired a proverbial shot that is sure to send GOP leaders shrieking to their favorite conservative media outlets. In a race already dominated by the spending of billionaires such as Charles and David Koch, Sheldon Adelson and others, Buffet just bigfooted them all. So far, the conservative Super PACs American Crossroads, Restore our Future and Americans for Prosperity have spent about $80 million dollars on the presidential election, far more than the official Romney campaign.

Buffett's answer: I see your $80 mil and raise you $920 million.* Yes, a cool one billion for the pro-Obama Super PAC Priorities USA Action.

The "left-wing" billionaires are altruistic and just spending for the betterment of all mankind while the "right-wing" billionaires are the spawn of Satan just wanting to enslave everyone.

[Thanos]

They're all evil, no matter what side they're on, and each one of them is living proof that Citizens United was one of the single worst decisions in the entire history of the United States Supreme Court. With one ruling they essentially validated unanswerable plutocracy and oligarchy.
