Crickets for far on this issue. It will be interesting to see how they spin this strong statement on states’rights against Rudy.
“for” s/b “so”
Saying that what flags fly in front of a state capital is a state issue is hardly a “strong statement on state’s rights”.
And when you are asked your PERSONAL opinion about the flag, and respond with “each state has the right to fly the flags of their choice”, it’s not an answer, its a duck.
So I ask Rudy: If you were the Governor of Alabama, would you fly the confederate flag on the capital, or would you tear it down from “your” flagpole because you personally find it offensive?
Do the rudy supporters have an opinion on what his answer would be?
BTW, I don’t think there is a single republican candidate for President who is calling for a national law banning states from flying the confederate flag. So it’s hardly like Rudy alone is respecting “state’s rights” here.
Hmm.
Rudy says he thinks abortion is a Constitutional right, and should be funded by taxpayers.
He has no problem infringing on people’s 2nd Amendment rights and calling for national gun control that affects ALL states.
And he had no problem initiating a lawsuit against gun manufacturers in other states as Mayor of NYC.
What does this add up to?
A poor understanding of the Constitution.
This is not enough - not by a long shot - to make up for his words and deeds.
By the fact that Rudy talks the talk but doesn't walk the walk? That ain't spin, that's what passes for common sense in outside of Rudy's cult of personality.
He sees Roe as a constitutional right, and Roe is one of the worst anti-states rights SCOTUS decisions ever.
Plus, he had no problem calling for federal laws to trump state gun laws.
Y'all seem to think that Rudy, by mouthing a few words, can make all his past actions go away.
