ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'google.protobuf'

I'm installing textgenrnn using the latest github commit (via git clone and setup.py) and after fixing some errors with the setup (tensorflow doesnt get all of the required packages) I get this error when trying to run my code

from textgenrnn import textgenrnn

textgen = textgenrnn(name="cbible")
textgen.train_from_file('bible_clean.txt', num_epochs=25, rnn_bidirectional=True)
textgen.generate()

A quick google shows it's related to protocolbuffers/protobuf#1296
