I can't think of any argument that can support the proposition that you have a right to smoke

I can't think of any argument that private property owners can't allow a perfectly legal activity on their premises.

Unless of course you take the stalking horse, currently popular crybaby position, that if you don't like a poo-poo smell even though you entered knowing the possibilities were 100% you would encounter one, your neurosis takes precedence over what's left of the U. S. Constitution.

What cowards and simpering nancies this once great country has evolved into.

So not only do you stink, you have a foul mouth, too? Myyyyy, how loveable you are. And you wonder why people don't cry too many tears when people like you aren't allowed to smoke in our presence....

Again, I'm pointing out there is no constitutional right to smoke, whether on public or private property. This falls into the incredibly wide realm of things thst are properly decided through the democratic process. In jurisdictions with smoking bans, the people have spoken. In a lot of other places, the people have decided not to ban smoking.

your neurosis takes precedence over what's left of the U. S. Constitution.

Please point out where in the US Constitution there is any mention of smoking. This is an issue properly left to the states.
