Anything to win. Once in office, the christofascists will plop an order on his desk reclassifying the AG stance of weed, making it illegal regardless of what states say, and the arrests will begin.
It's mostly blue states that have it legal and after ~~shooting~~ deporting all the undesirables, someone will have to work the fields.
You clearly don't know shit about legal cannabis. This will never happen in a million fucking years regardless of who is in office.
There is too much economic infrastructure built out around the industry now, and the states & federal government make a fortune in tax revenue. There is literally a zero percent chance cannabis legalization is rolled back further than where it is today.
Source: worked in the cannabis industry for almost 15 years.
Read pages 553 through 555 of project 2025. They absolutely will prosecute weed because it's still illegal at the federal level. You are dealing with fascists, homes. They are going to use the military against us right out of the gate.
You fail to take into account that basically 90% of the cannabis industry is owned by white people, many of whom are alt-right counterculturists, and more of them than you'd think are pro-Trump.
It turns out that an industry built around people with a tenuous appreciation for the law are often easily coopted by a demagogue who constantly threatens to overthrow the government.
They serve the same masters, and are on the same team. It doesn't matter what all of the 2025'ers think they are going to get. Trump is going to do what is good for him to remain in power, and removing other white people from positions of ownership in a sin-taxed industry that is coopted by the government isn't one of those things.
What you believe is irrelevant. I have seen the beast from the inside, and I can tell you for a fact that cannabis is staying legal as long as it is profitable for the white robber barons.
We did prohibition once already. The result was that all the little guys went out of business and the big guys ended up in positions to be the only guys. I wouldn't discount that as being a possibility for weed.
That is already happening. They don't need to make cannabis illegal again in order to monopolize the industry. All that takes is time, money, and effective lobbyists.
I'm with Rico suave on this one. Where I live, there's a dispensary every other block. 10s of thousands of jobs revolve around the industry. The states are making millions on taxes. Zero chance that would fly.
It is billions in taxes per year.
You must be high as fuck to trust this guy for whatever he says
I am high as fuck and I don't believe him.
Speaking of not believing, I can't believe how awesome French bread pizza is.
I'm not high and I can't believe it either. Now I want some.
There is no way that's true. French bread pizza is just mildly awesome, right?
Signaling from Trump can be interpreted as: “I’ll flip flop on issues and then do what I want when I’m in office anyway, depending on my mood, and if I ate McDonald’s yet or not.”
Might mean something if he wasn't constantly lying about even the most trivial shit.
He was already president once, and did everything in his power to stop legalization. He's getting desperate, but don't believe a single word he says.
I'd have to have dementia as potent as Donald's to believe a word he says. If I ever indicate I do please guide me to some sort of humane end of life in a European country with human dignity.
He will absolutely change his stance the second he's in office, the evangelicals will make him
I don’t believe you .gif

oh yeah. just like in the lead up to 2016 so he implied. did not seem to happen.
I have my doubts either will do (or be able to do) anything substantial but even if both got to an actual plan I'm guessing I'd still prefer Harris'.
But let's be real Trump will do nothing to ensure your rights expand in any regard and there's no reason to take him at face value for any reason.
Somebody go back in time and tell Nixon that both major parties support relaxing drug laws. It might kill him.
Oh don't worry, I'm sure they get Fox News in Hell.
I love when a government tells me how when what and why I can enjoy personal freedoms
