No it was not. This is a lie. The articles of confederation were discarded. the 1780s where an absolute shitshow. Washington, Hamilton clearly understood that a strong constitution with a strong, centralized government was required to repel foreign interlopers and build a real country. The states signed it and thereafter, for all time, you live by that law or you can pack your shit and leave.
Is exactly what the South was trying to do and what the North was fighting to stop.
how did “pack your shit and leave” work out for the confederacy?
Lmao you dumb fucking faggot, imagine being so retarded you say "pack your shit and leave" and then simultaneously crow about subjugating all the states who wanted to leave.
Fucking brainwashed.
so this place is infested with jeffersonians and jews. even jefferson admitted he was wrong after the war of 1812. Hamilton was already dead by then, tho. Get with the program. Advocating for "states rights" is advocating for your own destruction: a weak nation ripe to be infiltrated and subverted by foreign interests.
Lmao not only are you a hypocritical shitbag, you're a pussy who won't respond to anyone but yourself because you're scared they'll see what you have to say and actually respond.
Fuck you, coward.
Not gonna lie, I'm impressed by the mind that thought of that combination.
RUSSIAN COLLUSION!
That sounds like the current set up allowing a constant stream of immigrants, both legal and illegal. Better to have smaller governments that are actually accountable to the people, than a bunch of corrupt bureaucrats who will never feel the direct consequences of their decisions.
How so?
Long Live the Republic of Texas!
