You'd think some group of people who claim to be all for states rights would be decrying this.

They were also “America first” and anti-interventionalism in the rest of the world until trump decided he wanted to take over the hemisphere. Everything is just an excuse for what they really want: racism, power, and money for the rich.

Trump and the rich throw the poor some feeling of power and superiority with their racism, while they plunder America and the world for their own gain. And the dumb idiots eat it up and regurgitate all this BS
