Many organizations thrive on private funding. I can't imagine PP supporters NOT donating to them if they lost federal funding.
You're probably right that PP supporters would donate money to the organization if it lost federal funding. What you're ignoring is that people already do that, and PP still derives one third of its budget from federal funding. So any way you cut it, they'd lose a third of their funding. Do you think their supporters would immediately have an extra $350 million or so to spend? Or that PP would develop new supporters just because the government cut their funding?
