Getting lost in this is my larger point. The thing pro-legalization people have to realize is that the way they are going about this is actually counterproductive to their cause. When you keep changing the rules to get whatever you want, you are going to alienate many people, even if they are sympathetic to your cause. Many of the same people making this argument would have no problem if Congress, or the President, used Federal power to preempt state laws on, say, transgender bathroom use restrictions. So my issue is not really on the scope of powers, but instead on how people want to change the rules whenever it's convenient for them.
