They’ve been trying to break the federal government since before the nation was founded. These are the descendents of the same people that wanted to count “non-humans” like slaves towards their population but without giving those slaves the same rights as them.
You’re not wrong, but post WWII Republicans were more than willing to play along so long as big business got theirs.
IMO, it was when the CRA, the EPA and other “anti-business” initiatives came into existence that “small government” because a buzz word for them.
They made a completely wrong turn when they teamed up with Evangelicals in the 80’s and let them into positions of power in the party in the 90’s culminating in the bat-shit-crazies we have now.
