Had a friend who posted the story about trump saying he wants russia reinstated to the g7 with the comment “can’t wait till the sex tape comes out between this Russian plant and Putin”

He’s interning for the state democrat party in Arizona and it’s funny to see him talk about him having to collect data all the time to send to national.

dunno what trump can actually do about weed stuff without firing sessions, so what're the odds of the gardner-warren bill getting to his desk? it actually seems like a decent opportunity for certain democrats to say 'hey look at me i helped' even if it fails but, you know

Can't he deschedule marijuana on a whim, without Sessions being able to do poo poo about it?

obama instructed the feds *not* to raid dispensaries where it was legalized at the state level.

why he didn't go ahead and just instruct them to stop caring about weed on a national level, well... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It wouldn't legalize it in states where it's illegal. It would just end the federal prohibition.

he was so concerned about that, same reason why he didn't issue pardons that Trump did.

it also really goes to show how out of touch they are because even the maga chuds like their weed it's such a blatantly bipartisan issue among people who are mobilized by it and those against it tend to be much older folk who thought reefer madness was a documentary but will go along with it given the right coaxing

Eh, I'll believe it when he doesn't change his mind after ten minutes in a room with Stephen Miller or whoever.

the fact that he's even willing to say it puts him ahead of a significant number of actual sitting democrats

if he says it and it turns out to be a lie, well, plenty of Dems have done that too

it's p much impossible for the Dems to slam Trump on weed, no matter what happens

I only skimmed the headline, but it's better than the current Dem stance of "trump is a horrible treasonous traitor to our country who is literally a Russian plant to destroy America...and we're not going to even talk about impeachment because tjen we might lose the motivating factor behind our 🌊blue wave🌊"

the Dems have a nasty habit of campaigning on saying that a thing is bad, and then not actually doing anything about that something
