Well, he's got a point. State nullification of Federal law, a Confederate favorite, keeps being tried. Of course, just as it was back in the old days, it's Hakeem's party that keeps trying it. And the foundations of Federal bureaucratic bloat and the "deep state" are to be found in Woodrow Wilson's imitation of the central government of the Confederacy, which he regarded as superior to the Federal government as he found it when he was elected.
I think it more important to exorcise the second of those ghosts than the first, since the courts keep invalidating attempts at nullification no matter how often it's tried.
