The more separate each state is from such an overpowered executive branch, the better. Under more normal circumstances I'm very anti "states rights", but there's too much unchecked power in one place now.

Notice how the GOP stopped removed about states rights the moment they won everything? It was never about states rights. It was about hoarding power and unchecked authoritarianism.
