I’ve come around myself. Centralized government allows those mutants a shot at an expanded Executive seat of power. Federation allows them to fester in their own state.

We can’t forcibly save dumb white trash. We can just make Illinois, California, and New York capable of taking the refugees in.

Yeah, it’s definitely melodramatic. I just enjoyed how it laid out the actions of Trump that got us here, as well as describing the expanded role of the Executive.
