“You still haven’t provided me with a clause that authorizes drug laws.”

You still haven’t showed me one drug law ruled unconstitutional. Keep in mind they’ve existed since the 1930s and well before that at the state level.

There is no provision in the constitution that allows it. I can’t believe a so called “conservative” would argue that something is constitutional just because a court hasn’t ruled against it. Obamacare isn’t unconstitutional either I guess, because a Court hasn’t ruled against it. Did you know that the Suprme Court’s power of judicial review itself is not even in the Constitution? Yep, look it up. That power didn’t exist until the Court gave itself that power in Marburry v. Madison (1803). Since then we have had to rely on the Court, a branch of the federal government, to hold back the powers of the federal government. Conservatives historically have been against that. But not so anymore apparently.
