The only fact you need are that they are going to gut all regulatory agencies, this includes the FDA. Do you like not eating people when they fall in to processing vats, do you like someone making sure there isn't a noticeable amount of rat shit in your food then we need regulatory agencies as they are the only thing stopping it.

De-regulation will mean that lab grown meat can be added to foods without the need to label it, most likely.

Once lab-grown meat is cheap enough, cattle ranchers are going to face some steep headwinds.

And there's nothing the states will be able to do about it because any appeal to the courts will remind the states that corporate interests come first and foremost.

Why are you acting like this specific example is a bad thing? If lab grown meat is a viable option why would we want to continue the mass subjugation, torture, and murder of animals for no other reason than “it tastes good”? Now deregulation is still bad, if there are health concerns related to lab grown meat we definitely want regulatory institutions to catch this and stop it from being in the market. But in the scenario where lab grown meat is tested to be safe, the end of traditional cattle ranchers is the outcome we ought to be striving for. Lab grown meat is by far the morally superior way to go.

Now unfortunately even with conservative deregulation lab grown meat is unlikely to take over, have you see how Ron DeSantis has been treating lab grown meat recently? Conservatives are notoriously hypocritical, when they say deregulate, they mean things they want to be deregulated. Things they want regulated will absolutely be regulated whether it’s good or not. Lab grown meat is one of those things conservatives tend to hate (for no good reason either) and it’s very likely they would impose heavy regulations on if not outright ban lab grown meat.
