States Rights !


States Rights is a misnomer. States do not have rights. States have powers. Only individuals have rights.

It appears that Donald Trump now understands this. His use of the term “powers” instead of “rights” indicates a deep level of understanding.

He is a quick study.

Agree, States Rights is a vague term that can mean different things.

I'd rather '10th Amendment' be used, which is very specific on where the powers between state and federal are drawn.
