According to national polls, Trump beats Hillary, while Sanders beats Trump.

28. Serious question ...

... If Trump wins their primary (and as much as I have predicted he would flame out or step out or be overtaken by the establishment machine, I'm beginning to see his path to the nomination - holy freakin' shit) ... WOULD the Kochs still spend their $ on his campaign? I'm sure they would still fund down ticket campaigns - but:

(1) Trump has steadfastly rejected big interests/PAC $ so far, and I think reversing that position would actually damage him..., and

(2) I don't think Trump really fits their candidate model. He's unpredictable and likes to be the biggest prick in the room. I'm not sure he'd kiss their ring.

And, if they spend $ on an establishment candidate in the primary to try and take Trump down, I could see some hard feelings getting in the way of a peace between them for the GE.

I suppose the potential for a Sander's presidency could motivate them to hold their noses and support Trump - but I also could see them deciding instead to use the money to build a bigger moat and to try and corner/gain control of the market for sales/manufacturing of pitch forks.

What's the conventional wisdom on how the Kochs and the Trump campaign mesh?
