It ended as soon as roe v Wade was overturned and they immediately started angling for national abortion and contraceptive bans. They want to live in a Christian theocracy and their sobbing about States rights (to take away your rights) was all convenient lies for them to get a toehold.
"Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect."
Southern states before the civil war: "we want state's rights to own slaves."
Also Southern states before the civil war: "we should be able to force northern states to return slaves."

Thought the Republicans were the champions of “let the states decide” guess that’s out the window when pandering to their hate.

Conservatives say stuff for effects, not for truth or consistency. They are not honest people arguing in good faith.
They'll say "states rights" when that benefits them and "federal supremacy " when that benefits them. They are not good people.

Those aren’t “cops.” It’s an invading force. It is a domestic terrorist threat.
