Donors to Donald Trump’s election campaign now have to worry about being doxxed and harassed by crazed totalitarian Democrats. [Shaming Trump donors by revealing they donated to Trump? What’s wrong with that?, by Michael Hiltzik, Los Angeles Times, August 8, 2019] But one well-known set of Republican donors don’t have to worry about this thuggery: the Koch brothers.
