In reply to the discussion: Trump seeks to cut restrictions on marijuana through planned order [View all]thebigidea
(13,555 posts)36. for ten fucking years there were rumors he'd do something re: marijuana
He never fucking did and every inch of progress on that front in this country is because of Democrats.
That didn't stop those assholes from pretending Hillary was going to take your stash and Trump was for legal marijuana. Even though the Republican party didn't bend an inch and Trump never did a damn thing but authorize a few rumors. In fact, Republicans went out of their way to freeze or slow down any ballot initiatives on pot.
So, no. He's not going to fucking do anything at all because his entire party is geared towards keeping it criminalized so they can jerk off to their police fantasies.
It's amazing how even here there are PLENTY of people who fall for it despite Trump not doing a single thing to help.

He's getting desperate for votes, but whatever he does now will be too little too late.
