At 6 p.m., Trump is scheduled to be back on the Cape at the Oyster Harbors home of Bridget and Bill Koch, where guests will give or raise between $2,700 and $100,000.

Members of the host committee for that event include radio host Howie Carr, former state treasurer Joe Malone, former US senator Scott Brown, and Cape & Islands District Attorney Michael O’Keefe .

Billionaire Bill Koch is a brother of Charles and David Koch, who have refused to use their powerful political organization to back Trump. Bill Koch was a major backer of the Alliance to Protect Nantucket Sound, which fought to stop a proposed offshore wind project.
