Trump claims to be all about states’ rights when it benefits him (overturning Roe v Wade) but then loves to impose rules and punish states that defy him. Anyone saying they support Trump because they believe in states’ rights is a liar or a fool.

Its the same way conservatives love to virtue signal that they are all for small government but the moment they get into power they loveeeeeeeeeee to expand executive powers and impose federal powers over states left and right.

Same way conservatives love to virtue signal how much they care for their troops but constantly gut funding for veterans.

Conservatives are so predictable in how they act. It is always so disingenuous.
