During a recent televised townhall meeting, Anderson Cooper asked Donald Trump to name the most important priorities of the federal government. Two of the things Trump included on his list aren’t even constitutional roles of the federal government.

Sadly, most Americans have no clue what role the federal government was supposed to fill in the political system. As a result, we have federalized virtually everything – even sex!
