      both sides have always supported states rights and Trump will be no different

      in the US states can act on their own agency regardless of federal say no matter how much you want the fantasy of Democrat Saviors of the People to be true or if Trump is in office

      the fifty states individually operate as they want regardless of federal or other states - see cannabis, abortion, education standards, healthcare, workers’ rights, etcetera

          before Roe v. Wade the cracks were a lot less but still showing but now all the laws that Roe v. Wade held up are in question and in particular how much sway the federal government has over states and abortion/women’s rights is not the only thing Roe v. Wade held up

          slaves are perfectly legal if the legal wording is right and corporations use slaves from prisons without paying them all the time

          prisons include people that are zooed only because of things like the drug war or some other low-level reason that could include any of us
