Donald Trump now supports marijuana legalization

[whitehall]

The implication (spin if you will) is that Trump supports federal legislation legalizing marijuana use, but that's not true. Trump is leaving it up to the democratic process where states can put it on the ballot if that's what the majority of the people want. Lefties hate it when it comes to abortion but seem to cheer it when it comes to legalizing marijuana..

Donald Trump comes out in support of recreational-use marijuana in Florida​

Donald Trump comes out in support of recreational-use marijuana in Florida

State will decide on a constitutional amendment in November over whether to allow for adult use of pot

I don’t agree with this. I suppose Mr. Trump thinks it’s gonna get him a bunch of votes. Maybe it will. But I want to see a traditional masculine candidate in this country that stands up for traditional values. That includes banning pornography, being against drug use. Standing up for the police , Our founding fathers… and restoring the statues of men like Andrew Jackson, Christopher Columbus that have been destroyed by criminals in this country.

I’m upset with this decision by Mr. Trump, but I will still vote for him bc Harris is an even more extreme leftist. Either way It’s not a good sign for the future of the country.

Just seems like America is heading down a very feminized direction. Bunch of stay at home non employed men Sipping on their lattes. Boys getting sex change operations. And I still believe most Americans don’t want this stuff. It’s being put on us by the media Hollywood and the corporations as a distraction from our bad economy.

We should have candidates who want to strengthen our middle class. What is all this nonsense about race, foreign wars, gender, and drug use?

Well went to a party last night. A big one.heart of Trump country. There was use of alcohol, weed, and blow that I know of. Possibly use of other drugs. The actions and behavior of the fat drunk stupid idiots was by far the most embarrassing. Lol, ya real ******* men that can't walk, puke, and basically acting like idiots is masculine? Ya, I had a couple of beers but over a 3 and half hour spa. I left before 9 o'clock, better shit to do than be or act like a drunken or drugged up fool. Alcohol and weed are legal here. Adults are free to make their own choices. I chose to remain sober. Did not need a law to make this choice. Those who chose to be idiots are free to make that choice as it should be. I guess if fat drunk and stupid is your idea of being masculine then go ahead and act that way. Don't think you can choose that for me or anyone else. Mind your ******* business. I have a right to be sober. The drunk has a right to be a drunk. The pot head has the right to be a pot head. No law is required for each to pay the consequences of their choices. Natural consequences take care of that. We don't need you telling us how to live. While I did not appreciate the drunkards and druggie the food and music was awesome. Glad I went and also glad I left. In moderation it was a good time. I think I got out at the right time also.

Trump says "the state will decide" and left wing media sources spin it to "Trump endorses marijuana". The guy can't get a break even when he does the right thing.

That may be a technicality, but it’s not good enough for a lot of people in this country. It kind of reminds me of Joe Biden saying he is personally against abortion, but it’s out of his hands when it comes to the politics of it.

I recognize an America’s going through a tremendous change. More people in this country today support things they would’ve never supported in the 1950s or even 10 years ago. traditional masculine values are under attack.

Anti-marijuana traditional Americans would say Trump needs to come out strongly and publicly say he will vote against the bill.

Despite its more normalized use and Trump’s post, some Republicans still aren’t on board with legalizing recreational marijuana. Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) said earlier this year that he would vote against the ballot measure this fall because his brother, who died at 67 in April, began smoking marijuana as a teenager and led a life of addiction.

Trump suggests he could support Florida law legalizing ‘personal amounts’ of marijuana

Former President Trump suggested he could support a Florida ballot measure that would legalize recreational marijuana. “In Florida, like so many other States that have already given their approval,…

If people are true to their guns on certain course objects like abortion or marijuana legalization or any topic. They’re not gonna be those people who say that’s “just let the states decide”. They’re going to say they will vote a certain way or not. They will not be like trump and say well if it’s going to be legalized, let’s do it the right way. Even if they’re outnumbered, they’re gonna stick to their guns.

Again, I want to stress I’m still voting for Trump so don’t worry.

“In Florida, like so many other States that have already given their approval, personal amounts of marijuana will be legalized for adults with Amendment 3,” Trump said in a post on his Truth Social site. “Whether people like it or not, this will happen through the approval of the Voters, so it should be done correctly.”

Don’t worry I’m still voting for Trump. But I’m upset with his wording here. “It should be done correctly”

I want to see Trump vigorously, oppose marijuana legalization. He should try and convince the voters to do the right thing and impose marijuana legalization. I don’t agree with these folks who say “let the states decide things.” if a majority of people in the state voted to legalize child pornography what would we say. “ Well the state decided”. That won’t cut it for me.

The anti-marijuana people in America may now be a minority. And I think it’s very unfortunate and goes against the values of our grandparents. I fully understand that America is changing including the culture of our country… it’s becoming a lot more feminized.

support banning pornography, I fell into my clutches a few years back and now I am only breaking free. Being gay should be reclassified as a mental illness. Gambling should be banned especially with the rise of legal sport betting.

you are just the little fascist, aren't you.

This is Trump, so he'll flipflop back again tomorrow.

And all his followers will love it. They have no consistent principles themselves, so they demand a leader with no consistent principles.

Okay, I admit that Trump cultists do have one consistent principle, that sole principle being "might makes right" or "the ends always justify the means, but only for my own side" or "any sleaze is acceptible if it helps TheParty."

We Democrats know that the moral relativist Trump cultists will always hate us for our consistent principles. The pure shining light of liberal absolute morality causes physical pain to conservatives, much like sunlight burning a vampire, so they lash out in rage and hatred at the source of their pain.

you guys are a cult too....just a different brand.....

I think this thing is going to hurt Trump. He has been running his campaign, largely on stopping drugs coming over the border. Build a wall things like that. Now here he is pushing for the legalization of dope. However one wants to script it is “states rights” or w/e…he is not coming out against Florida legalizing marijuana. So it hurts his argument.

Gotta Wonder at this point if Democrats have infiltrated the Trump campaign and they are brainwashing him to do these things

why waste your time fighting something that the people seem to want....

 

[hjmick]

You are one stupid son of a ***** to believe that.

You are one stupid son of a *****.


Fixed it for you... you could have just left off the "...to believe that" and your post would have been perfect.

As usual zero substance^. The hope these folks have is to start a flame war to totally distract the conversation

 

[toobfreak]

Its just another form of keeping the populace in bondage or enslaved. Keep them stupid and docile, looking away from the politicos looting the country, keep them away from anything of importance.

Very probably, though for some, grass is just an avatar into a higher consciousness and doesn't influence or affect their views, but I suspect that is a minority.

 

[toobfreak]

Trump had 4 years to legalize it nationally, if he wanted.

Really? It is up to just one person? You mean by executive order? I thought that was a congressional thing to pass?

And if Trump had four years, then so did Harris and Biden and Obumma and Clinton and Reagan and Al Gore.

 

[Rawley]

Relax. Pot is fine. It is already legal in half the states. The problem isn't the Weed, it is the people who don't always use it responsibly. Just like guns.

The problem is that the weed today is not even in the same universe with the weed we grew up with.

 

[EMH]

Unfortunate to see you hacking up my posts deleting key points.

What you and the Tucker Carlson PARROTS are doing is pushing a toxic bullshit narrative rooted in bigotry.

If you do not understand how fast Fentanyl kills, you ought to STFU about "your opinion" on this, because it is toxic and factless, as is most SUB BULLSHIT.

Do you love Jacob Chansley, Brian Kemp, and Jeff Sessions too? Tucker does...

How’s that a problem?

No it won't and you are exhibit A of what is wrong with the GOP today. You are a SUB. You support Israel, a giant new Federal bureaucracy filled with jackboots to enforce and abortion ban, you "vote your religion" which isn't the slightest bit conservative or patriotic to America. As long as the Democrats can just point to the GOP and say "that's the SUBS" the Democrats win, because you and your demographic are toxic morons.

The only people pissed off by marijuana legalization are SUBS. SUBS will vote for Trump. The further Trump distances himself from the treasonous idiocy of the SUB, the better chance Trump has of getting votes beyond SUBS.

 

[Resnic]

I love mr trump, but no matter how much you like them you're going to disagree at some point.

This is my point. I don't think weed should be legalized anywhere.

 

[EMH]

George Floyd was under the influence and that is why he died. When he said I can't breathe, he was referring to the drugs in his system. And plus you are acting like an antisemitic person.

You have an IQ under 5 and have NO IDEA how fast Fentanyl kills in the real world, because you do not live in the real world, you parrot treasonous anti conservative frauds/liars like Tucker Carlson...

 

[struth]

There seems to be a race between Trump and Harris to see who can flip flop the most

Trump legalized hemp on a federal level, or at all surprised to see him take this next step.

 

[Rawley]

How’s that a problem?
