It will probably work in this case. The mainstream media will tell the sheep that the bill contained more funding for the police, but the GOP refuses to support it. No details will be given.
Most of the sheep will buy that.
Side story: I have a friend who is an old-school Democrat. She worked hard all her life. Nothing radical about her. And she takes everything NBC News says as if it came right out of the Bible.
I’m sure she’ll bring this up next time we talk. “Did you hear that the Republicans are trying to defund the police?”
Will I try to convince her otherwise? I might try, gently. But it will do no good.

Just look her square in the eye, tell her that Ron White was correct, and turn and walk away.
Most of the sheep will buy that.
