LOL the 'Tea Party' disintegrated years ago, and it's dead certain Trump would never be a 'Tea Party' candidate', he's a moderate centrist with both left of center and some right of center views. The 'The Tea Party' wasn't the 'grass roots' uprising they tried to market themselves as, they were strictly a Koch Brothers PR agency, same as the 'Liberation Party' was before the 'Tea Party' was invented and funded by the Kochs. Nobody even mentions them any more, except in innernetz fever swamps.
While I agree the Tea Party isn't as relevant, the idea it was the creation of the Koch Brothers is ridiculous.
For those who followed the money when it first popped up out of nowhere, it's just a fact. It would have gone nowhere without the Koch's seed money, and it wasn't any kind of a 'grass roots uprising'.
