The Federal Gov't is the subject of the Constitution. The States created the Federal Gov't to perfect the Union and power flows upward from the States. The idea that a State may not enact something that appears to go against the Constitution is bogus, since it may not affect the interests of the Union at all and would be allowed.

Yep, -- and any State enactments that "go against the Constitution"s protections of individual rights are also bogus, --- Agreed?
