There might be a fundamental reason why we are having more and more of “not my” presidents – federal overreach. We now have feds deciding where to dig for oil, protect birds, minimal wage, etc. I am omitting mandating masks and injecting vaccines, as this has some emergency justification.
So, if the feds decide all these issues, then, naturally, about 50% of the people will not be happy. If we were to return decision powers to states, then you can decide to follow your favorite policies by simply moving from New Jersey to Alabama or other way around. The stakes of presidential elections will diminish to several manageable issues and nobody will be forced to live according to rules they do not agree with.
