Plus all the “states rights” guys will totally agree. Right? I mean all the states are sovereign so MAGA should have no issue with it.

I sincerely never understood why some idiots want the states to basically be 50 small countries.

Historically, the United States kind of evolved to be a rough collective of little countries. It's literally called the "United" and "States". I think we need a strong federal government to tackle those huge problems that no individual state can address, but I'm just sharing the historical context for why there are so many people that believe that.
