And what about the ones, like me, in red states? How fucked are we? (I know the answer and hence drunk and high rn)
Join us in the PNW! We have legal weed!
Realistically people should start to self sort and leftists should start to purchase and train with guns if they don’t have them for their family’s protection.
And what about project 2025. That total teeheee not our plan teeheee thing …
I’d love be as optimistic as you but unless Trump changes his mind the US will get a brainwormed fanatical anti-vaccier in charge of deciding which vaccines are safe to use. Even if the states don’t cooperate with trump’s agenda there are so many long standing federal institutions which till now you’ve never needed to think about that are about to get wrecked.
The Federal government CAN just barge in. We specifically designed the structure that way. Federal supercedes state.
My so called blue state of California just voted against minimum wage increase, against rent control, against banning slavery, and for increasing the war on drugs. At least this time we narrowly voted to approve gay marriage (unlike last time where we banned it)
Federal laws trump state laws every time, those blue states will be just as shit as the red states in no time
Support from local and state governments does make a difference though. While federal agencies can still enforce these laws, local/state agencies could look the other way. Cannabis is still federally illegal, but some states have basically said “no thanks, we’re good as long as you stick to our rules on it.”
It comes down to how much state governments want to go to bat for their constituencies and how much the federal government wants to press the issue. All else being equal, I’d rather be in a state that stands up for my rights than one that doesn’t.
As somebody who has lived through the end of a democracy, trust me when I say the federal government will steamroll through local and state governments
Where, if you don’t mind me asking?
Sorry, I’m not going to give details for my own safety
Totally fair
He will absolutely move the military into a blue state to force compliance. This is how the next civil war will start. Red Force and blue resistance.
