The federal government weakening itself by debasing its currencies will give the states an opportunity to assert themselves. From Joe Jarvis at thedailybell.com:
It must be confusing to be a “progressive” these days.
They criticize Trump’s lack of dictatorial control over the country to stop the CoronaVirus. He left the lockdowns to the state governments.
But then Trump suggests that the Feds will make the call on when to reopen the economy (AKA give people their rights back).
Trump said, “When somebody’s the President of the United States, the authority is total… The President of the United States calls the shots.”
And just like that, the Tenth Amendment was reborn.
Suddenly, the radical left loves the Constitution! Specifically the part of the Bill of Rights that says:
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Trump has done more for states’ rights than any other President in modern history. Not because he is trying to. Because he is universally hated by the left. And the lefties were the ones lagging behind on understanding why state governments are an important check on federal power.
