"There are already federal laws that ban armed federal agents at polling stations. But since Trump owns federal law enforcement, that doesn’t matter. What this model does is recommend states pass their own laws which follow the language of those federal laws as closely as possible. When state and federal law come into conflict, federal law is supreme. But only when the federal government is acting in a constitutional and lawful capacity. Since these new state laws would only be outlawing what is already against federal law they are only outlawing actions which by definition cannot be lawful."
