In a post to Truth Social on Wednesday, Trump expressed his disappointment that Americans for Prosperity Action (Afp Action), a conservative political advocacy group, had chosen to support former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley over him.
Afp Action, which was founded by billionaire brothers Charles Koch and the late David Koch, released a statement on Tuesday that asserted that Haley, former governor of South Carolina, was the most capable candidate to challenge Trump in the primaries. They commended her leadership qualities and said she had “what it takes to lead a policy agenda to take on our nation’s biggest challenges.”
On Wednesday, Trump wrote, “The Globalist Koch Fake ‘Network,’ Americans for China Prosperity, who constantly admit that they did better in Business under President Trump than Ever Before, have decided to back Nikki ‘Birdbrain’ Haley over Ron DeSanctimonious, a minor hit for Ron.”

A group aligned with billionaire Charles Koch is throwing its support — and vast financial resources — behind Nikki Haley, in an effort to steer the Republican party away from frontrunner Donald Trump.

Trump is still far ahead in the Republican primary, according to the latest polls, but the Koch network support could boost Haley in the two early states of Iowa and New Hampshire, providing her with some momentum in the final weeks of the race. The Iowa caucus is Jan. 15 and the New Hampshire primary is Jan. 23.

The salient feature of Koch's response is that the company does not argue the core facts of our 9,000-word expose. Instead, Koch targets the messenger. Koch's top target here is not even Rolling Stone, but me, Tim Dickinson.
