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.

"States Rights" means "A State shall move as far to the political Right as possible. Any Leftward motion will be stopped by another level of government."

What did you think it meant?
