Bloomberg reports that "A super political action committee with close ties to billionaire donor Charles Koch has spent $4 million on Republican presidential hopeful Nikki Haley, with more spending planned in the coming weeks."
The money has gone to canvassing in early voting states and advertising in Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, Arkansas, Tennessee, North Carolina, and Virginia, according to Americans for Prosperity Action spokesman Bill Riggs. The Koch-backed political group said in late November it would help Haley in her bid to defeat frontrunner Donald Trump for the Republican nomination.
The Kochs and Haley want to flood the U.S. with immigrants, which would continue the wealth pump.

I'll "wait and see" on this; if donors exhaust their funds now they might not have the $$ to seriously support anti-Trump efforts later. And, even if they still have the money to do it then lots of early anti-Trump messaging now might produce "campaign fatigue" among potential voters when the real compaign gets underway.
