WASHINGTON — A large, well-funded Republican network established following the 2012 electoral defeat to expand GOP support among Hispanics now lies in ruins.

The Libre Initiative, which has received more than $10 million from the conservative billionaire brothers Charles and David Koch, aimed to expand the party’s reach in presidential battleground states in hopes of winning the White House in 2016.

But now, the group and its billionaire backers are focused on maintaining Republican control of the Senate, having effectively retreated from the presidential race and their party’s presumptive nominee, Donald Trump.

Trump has “ruined a lot of the work that the Libre Initiative, and Hispanic pro-liberty activists have been doing,” said a source within the Koch network who agreed to speak on background about the group’s plans.

1. Trump ruined their work? But he loves the Hispanics!

Remember how Trump posed for a picture with a taco bowl? Would it help if he wore a sombrero and a serape? How about one of those big bandido mustaches?
