It’s the old 10th amendment bs and unfortunately it’s why some liberals buy that he’s on their side about drugs. Rand Paul has a problem with federal anti-drug laws but his hypothetical DoJ and Attorney General would not fight if a state or locality say wanted to make drug possession a crime punishable by life in prison or frankly even death.

It’s also the old 5-minute rule relating to all Pauls

To recap: the Five Minute Rule states that any member of the Paul family will make sense on any political issue for exactly five minutes. Precisely at the 5:00:01 mark, however, he will say something so far off the rails that you will find yourself looking at him as though he has sprouted a reptilian head out of his sternum.
