Can you honestly, legitimately blame Republicans for trying to defund it?
It is objectively retarded to blame lawmakers for, perhaps the first time in years, actually attempting to do something their constituents WANT them to do.
And, as an aside, if you honestly believe that these "poorly-edited videos" are "provably false", I would love to see some legitimate citations.
The FACTS are that the videos are true. If you don't believe there's anything morally reprehensible in them, all well and fine, you're entitled to your opinion. However, do not blame Republicans for the fact that the vast majority of Americans have a much more correctly formed moral compass than your ilk.
