some states like Tennessee have removed EV infrastructure the charging stations

how is range not an issue

In your example it sounds more like Tennessee is the issue, not range anxiety. If they were to remove all gasoline infrastructure suddenly ICE range anxiety would be a major issue? No, it is the people removing the infrastructure.

From what I read online, Tennessee anxiety ought to be much more widespread than it seems to be.

If they were to remove all gasoline infrastructure suddenly ICE range anxiety would be a major issue?

Yes... It would be an issue I you had a ICE car and couldn't gas up in some states. That would be something you would have to account for. Same goes for not being able to charge an EV. Doesn't really matter if it's because some asshole did it for political reasons or not when you're stranded on the side of the road.
