See, it's not the plan, which is great, it's the originator of the plan. Since, it's Trump who proposed it they close their ears at that point. We need more of these videos because millennials are really pretty stupid.
I saw this earlier and almost started a thread on this. However, I don't trust "man on the street" interviews. First off, we have no idea how many kids the guy had to interview to get the "correct ones" for this interview. Second, the way the kids sounded at the end of the video sounds like they might have been plants.

They're simply developed to propagate an agenda....like those that enjoy #muhpole

If the questions on zerO where represented truthfully, then no way in hell.
Did this interview misrepresent something other than the genesis of the legislation, or "plan"?
Just chose to like a different name. They didn't ask about the content of the policies. just used both names for Obamacare and asked which one they preferred.
With these things it's not whether they truly like or agree with it, it's that people don't want to be caught being uninformed so they act informed, often with worse results than just saying they don't know.
The fact that you can get the same results on pretty much any subject says a lot about the population as a whole.

I bet they asked people if they would support a plan where it would save them $2500 per year in premiums, if you liked your existing doctor and plan you could keep them, and where you had plenty of choices. Then some libturd numbnut on the street thought that he had tricked them into supporting obamacare.

Then no, this is not like those videos. This asked about content of the policies. Students like them when told they were Bernie policies, were surprised to find out they were Trump proposals.
It does beg a question on whether or not these kids actually know what Bernie advocates for or just latched on to him last election because he wasn't Hillary or a Republican.

Did the video you're talking about include the following lies?
If you like your plan you can keep your plan.
If you like your doctor you can keep your doctor.
Medical costs will decrease $2,000 annually.
Or did the video tell the truth to the conservatives?
I bet you I could offer $2K to search through the legislation and you'd find none of that in there. Intentions don't always come true.
And actually the video told the truth. They didn't lie and say that it was someone else's plan like the OP. They just asked if they preferred Obamacare or the ACA.

They are exactly the same with different window dressings. Get a person on the street and put a camera in their face and enough are likely to fall right into your hands and say whatever you want.
Take the right name off and people will be more receptive, whether they really like it or not. Vox populi. It's simply word gaming.
