The political network financed largely by billionaire Charles Koch is launching a wave of digital ads targeting former President Donald Trump.
The ads argue that if Trump becomes the Republican nominee next year, it will lead to President Joe Biden winning reelection.
Americans for Prosperity Action, a super PAC that received millions of dollars during the 2022 election cycle from the Charles Koch-chaired Koch Industries and the Koch-backed Stand Together Chamber of Commerce, gave CNBC a first look at some of the new digital ads.
Koch, who’s worth more than $60 billion, and his network notched several wins while Trump was in office, including tax cuts and the appointments of multiple conservative Supreme Court justices. The network traditionally backs Republican candidates.
