    Wild. For my entire life conservatives have claimed that “states rights” were their highest priority. Now that they control Congress they want to enforce their will on states https://twitter.com/agschneiderman/status/938228065016172544 …

        Conservatives love federal power when it imposes their will! See: Fugitive Slave Act

        Funny how conservatives forget what conservativism is supposed to be when it conflicts with what they want at any given moment.

        They only care about "States Rights" insofar as it allows them to legalize bigotry.

        States rights has nothing to do with Constitutional guarantees. A state has no right to deny a US citizen any right granted by the constitution. That is the issue and what conservatives have always fought for.

        States rights are for when the states are doing things that the @GOP likes.

        Republicans always, always act in bad faith. Follow that simple truth, and it all becomes clear.

        Just like everything else, they were never about States rights. Money, power, and party. Their holy trinity.

        Quit trying to analyze it or figure it out. They are hypocrites. Period. That simple. Whatever is the means to an end is ok. Right now, money from the NRA is the means to an end. Ethics be damned.

        States rights = code for keep the POC in their place. Nothing to do with states rights per se.

        It’s almost like they have no genuine principles at all, and they just say whatever they want to justify their self-interest.

        You keep thinking they have some principles that they live by. Sociopaths don't have principles. Or feelings.
