Hopefully now that the cash cow may be drying up

These absolute nuts will start to worry. The Koch bros can't fund all of their campaigns.

“There are a lot of major donors who feel that until the Republican Party can field people who have a vested opinion of what to do and to do it in a prompt and efficient way, we’re going to withhold giving money,” Hoffman told the Post, saying the freeze could affect “a lot of current far-right Republicans.”
