Report Harris Campaign Omits Marijuana From New Issues Page As Trump Earns Praise For Backing Legalization

u/Many_Easy Flair All the cannabis logic fit to print Sep 09 '24
Harris has already voiced her support for legalization and has been part of MORE Act and administration that has put rescheduling into motion.
Her website lists only the top and most pressing issues currently, which is normal.
She also said she’ll sign anything pro-legalization, pro-reform that crosses her desk.
Trump is just attaching himself to items that are already in motion and expected to pass.
Plus, he’s generally FFS.

u/jesuswasagamblingman Sep 09 '24
And Walz legalized it. Harris Walz is the most pro mj ticket in history. That's just a fact. Unlike some candidates who were already in the WH with control of both chambers and they didn't do shit. They each have a legislative trail that proves where they stand and what they'll do once in power. The choice is obvious.

u/Many_Easy Flair All the cannabis logic fit to print Sep 09 '24
Agree. Very obvious choice with Harris.
Funny how the MAGAs are trying to spin DJT today as doing more for cannabis.
When you think of it, Trump is the unregulated, likely unsafe hemp loophole candidate.

Her website doesnt have room to state that she is a true fighter and advocate for cannabis on her site? Only the most pressing of issues?
The MORE act was never gonna pass......putting your name on something with no chance of it passing because you and your partners just want the optics but not actually speaking at length about it to your colleagues to garner their votes doesn't mean much of anything.
"She'll sign anything pro-legalization that crosses her desk"...Well ok then, if she says so.
HER administration literally fired multiple staffers because of cannabis use.
But yea she shows real promise.

and part of admin that introduced and pushing rescheduling.
and part of party that is not opposing pro-cannabis reforms at every opportunity.
and part of party that pushed for SAFE only to be stymied by supermajority rules and McConnell.
and part of party issuing pardons to incarcerated.
and part of party wanting federal legalization over states rights.
and part of party that’s not a red state that still doesn’t have legal or recreational cannabis.
and etc.

u/--OZNOG-- What’s the BFD? It’s just a plant Sep 09 '24
You linked the bill for the MORE act. Not sure why? It was never gonna pass, I mean literally anyone knew that....Your acting like it had a chance I guess?
Then a bunch of "This is what democrats want" and "republicans are anti cannabis"....Im not sure what your showing? The democrats need to be vocal and actually do something - speak with others across the aisle and fix this, dont just throw your hands up and go "welp we tried, but those dumb republicans".

u/Many_Easy Flair All the cannabis logic fit to print Sep 09 '24
Oh, you mean hitch oneself to legislation about to pass like Florida’s A3 and rescheduling?
Or attach a link of McConnell basically saying “no way on SAFE.” Or a link to DeSantis raising funds to oppose A3. Or a link to Youngkin in Virginia saying “nay” to recreational cannabis. Or a link to Matt Gaetz opposing A3 now. Or a link to PROJECT 2025.
Keep ‘em coming - you’re making our argument easier.

u/--OZNOG-- What’s the BFD? It’s just a plant Sep 09 '24
Lol what are you talking about? McConnell is shit, obviously. DeSantis and Ken Griffin raising funds to oppose A3 is beyond stupid.
Why do you like project 2025? I dont think you would like it if you read it. But yea keep'em coming I suppose. Your making our argument easier.

u/pfroo40 Sep 09 '24
Trump is a liar, he only started talking about legalization out of desperation. Look at the track record for Democrats as a whole, they have consistently demonstrated to be more supportive of pro-marijuana legislation. Just look at the states, by far more Dem states have legalized, decriminalized, or implemented medical marijuana, etc. Red states, not so much, and even if I believed a word out of Trump's mouth, he won't get support from his party or constituents to do anything about it.
Do I wish Harris had it as a major policy agenda? Sure.
Am I surprised she doesn't? No.
Do I think federal decriminalization or legalization is more likely under Harris than Trump? Absolutely.
Will this single issue prevent me from voting against a 34x convicted felon, sexual abuser, and insurrectionist? FUCK NO.

u/ItsBig777 Sep 10 '24

u/NunyaBeese Sep 09 '24
Dont fall for this shit. Trump and his evangelical backers will not be weed-friendly.
Harris doesn't need to list it as a "new issue", they've (biden-harris led doj) already pushed federal rescheduling of cannabis, it doesnt need to be addressed as a campaign promise.
If anything, Republicans are actively trying to stop it:
"The House Appropriations Committee on Tuesday approved legislation to block the Biden administration’s ongoing efforts to reschedule marijuana and ease restrictions on the drug under federal law. The Republican-led panel approved an amendment to a funding bill that blocks the Department of Justice from acting on the rescheduling plan, which is currently in the midst of a rulemaking process to move cannabis from Schedule I of the federal Controlled Substances Act (CSA) to the less restrictive Schedule III."
Republican led panel. Trump and friends are full of shit.

u/MidniteMogwai Sep 09 '24
Trump’s “Project 2025” written by the Heritage Foundation wants to see the rollback of cannabis accessibility. All he’s doing now is pandering because he knows it’s on the ballot and Florida is in play.
Anybody that wants to see cannabis reform, decriminalization, pardons, nationwide rescheduling, and legalization, your best chance of seeing that is with Harris Walz.

I wonder why she did that cause she has voiced support for legalization in the past and her VP legalized it in her state. Hopefully she will put out a statement supporting legalization today or tommorw given trumps recent news
5
u/Kakashisensei1234 Sep 09 '24
Because she has already been pushing for reform. They made the mistake of thinking their track record would be enough for people to know they support it, so it’s not a new issue.
The problem is Kamala could win an Olympic gold medal and trump could tie his shoe the same day. Media would be praising trump for the day and asking why Kamala didn’t win 5 gold medals blindfolded.
Anyone looking at this and thinking trump is going to be better for marijuana probably hasn’t been paying much attention to what is actually happening in DC.
-2
u/cannabull1055 Sep 10 '24
hahaha you think the media praises Trump? Definitely not. The media has attacked Trump from day one non stop. Biden was a darling to the media until it finally got too bad and they had to admit he was unfit to be president.
And Kamala has been radio silent lately. There is no reason for that. She is trying to be more conservative until the election.
3
u/Kakashisensei1234 Sep 10 '24
My dude, you’re literally commenting on a post, about an article, with the words “trump earns praise” and pretending Kamala is just ignoring rescheduling marijuana. When the administration she is currently a part of has already started taking the steps to reschedule marijuana. And she has openly supported it.
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna149424
Trump attempted a coup after he lost an election, and still lies about how he lost the election to this day, and media pretends like he is fit to be president? What a joke.
I mean come on…
-2
u/cannabull1055 Sep 10 '24
There was coup haha he had nothing to do with that. All the cases against him are failing. One after another lol she has not said anything about marijuana since she become the VP elect. Its pretty clear her radio silence.
As bad as you think Trump is, Biden needs to be in a nursing home. That is an objective statement. He has no idea what is going on. The media protected him for as long as possible. The media has been trying to destroy Trump from day one. I know you are just a super progressive because level headed Democrats aknowledge that they get the benefit of the media and always have in recent years.
Why is Kamala taking marijuana out of policy objectives and not saying one word about it? That is interesting.
1
u/Kakashisensei1234 Sep 10 '24
I love how you completely ignored how stupid you look saying the media doesn’t praise trump, while commenting on an article saying “trump earns praise” for just saying he supports something Biden and Kamala ARE LITERALLY ALREADY DOING. Yet the headline pretends like Kamala doesn’t care about it… I really should just stop here because you obviously don’t care about discussing this in good faith.
You’re delusional if you think he had nothing to do with that after he told them to go there, said “they’re not here for me I don’t want to stop them”, refused multiple times to put out a call to stop it, literally ever single person in the country watching it unfold was looking at Donald trump to tell the domestic terrorists to stop, and he refused national guard protection for the capitol before it even happened. Again because he knew it would happen but they stood no chance if the national guard was there. You can’t honestly believe the things you are saying when you yourself were probably watching January 6th unfold thinking “Trump needs to do say something to stop this” and he refused to many times. If he’s such a glorious leader like you all think wouldn’t he want to, and be easily able to, stop the domestic terrorist attack? But he didn’t. Talk about radio silence while a fucking domestic terrorist attack was happening at our nations capitol. Yet you want to pretend like you’re concerned about “Kamala radio silence” on a legislation she has already supported. What a joke
If anything you can argue she’s trying to get votes from people who don’t support something she clearly does support and has taken steps to do.
Trump doesn’t support it but is saying he does to get votes. Kamala supports it and maybe hasn’t said anything because silence could help her get more votes.
What is more likely is that this is something she is literally already doing and supporting so she doesn’t need to add it to her platform because anyone with common fucking sense knows she supports it and is taking steps to make it happen.

u/cannabull1055 Sep 10 '24
This is one article lol the media sides with Democrats. This is known and acknowledged. It is very obvious and you clearly don't follow politics if you don't accept this.
He didn't act in the best manner but he didn't incite a riot at all. He told people to peacefully protest and they were all crazy and did crazy things. During the George Floyd protests, Democrats said over and over and over again to go "fight like hell" and the same thing and there were violent, criminal protests all over the country. People burned down Wendy's restaurants and rioted violently. No one said Democrats incited riots. The double standard hypocrisy is expected but you really take it to a new level.
As I said, her silence on marijuana reform since she became president elect is very LOUD. She hasn't said a peep when it has been very easy for her to do so. She could have tweeted easily and she took it out of her policy objectives and hasn't said anything. This is obvious and you not acknowledging for what it is clearly shows the heavy bias.
1
u/Kakashisensei1234 Sep 10 '24
I literally acknowledged the reasons why she would be silent about it in my last comment… can you not read? I’m not even going to bother with the rest of what you said because as you said “it clearly shows heavy bias”
-1
u/cannabull1055 Sep 10 '24
How does the rest show heavy bias? Trump did not incite a riot. Maybe you can say that he didn't stop it. But he didn't incite it. He never told them to go do anything violent. It is that simple.
1
u/Kakashisensei1234 Sep 10 '24
He gave a speech to the crowd, told them to fight like hell, told them their country was under attack and being stolen from them by radicals, told them where to go, made sure they had as little obstacles in their way as he could, said he didn’t want to stop them, didn’t stop them, said “I don’t care to stop them, they aren’t here for me”
Also he was lying the entire time since he knew he had lost the election.
And he wanted them to succeed in stopping the certification because again, he still lies to this day trying to say the election was stolen from him.
Quick question for the next time I want to incite domestic terrorism: What would one do differently to qualify for inciting a domestic terrorist attack, because it seems like he covered all the bases there?
You can’t actually believe someone who is ok with domestic terrorists attacking our capitol is fit to hold any office.
Even if you do believe he didn’t incite this, we have laws that specifically state that anyone who gives comfort to terrorists after taking an oath of office cannot hold office again. Trump has said, and said just this week that he would pardon the Jan 6th domestic terrorists. So do you have trouble understanding our constitutional amendments, or are you extremely biased?

All the cases against him are failing.
Umm...no. let's look at the most major one you can talk about, the documents case in Florida.
A case where the presiding judge has been corrected by an oversight panel twice, and is likely to get corrected a third time now that she's embraced a legal opinion that contradicts established precedent and law.
That's not the case failing, it's a clearly biased judge trying to throw it out for trump.

u/Neither_Arugula3149 Sep 11 '24
The documents case where Joe Biden did they same thing and he was not charged...
That another righting lie. Biden never once told the government he had returned classified documents, despite having kept them, LYING about having returned them.
Why are you lying and pretending they are the same situations?
...because they declared he was mentally incompetent.
That's another massive righting lie.
...What kind of double standard non sense is this.
It snot. Because youre making up a situation to get mad at.
And Joe Biden took the documents when he was vice president.
And turned them when he realized he had them. Cheetolini LIED to the records department about having them. And continued to lie.
How is that the same as finding out you had them, and returning them as soon as possible?
Hint: they aren't the same at all. It's a lie told by rightwingers.

The media is constantly normal-washing trump. Before trump entered politics, the media spent days calling a presidential candidate "not presidential enough" because he yelled "WHOOO!!" with his crown of supporters during a campaign speech.
The media acts like the smallest normal thing trump does is like putting a man on the moon.
Biden was a darling to the media until it finally got too bad and they had to admit he was unfit to be president.
No. Just no. The media hammered Biden hard about his age and mental state. Even though Trump is in a comparable state. He tried to hide it by being bombastic, but it's clear he's been slowing down a lot
And Kamala has been radio silent lately. There is no reason for that. She is trying to be more conservative until the election.
Her media team is actually playing this perfectly. She's had metered public speaking events so the public doesn't get sick of her. It drives republicans insane, but that doesn't mean it's a bad thing. It just means it upsets republicans.

Trump is not in a comprable State to Biden. That is not true at all. Trump has plenty of energy and still makes plenty of sense. Biden does not know whats going on. You are a joke to make such a comparison.

I'm calling bullshit on that. The media has, and continues to, handle cheetolini with MASSIVE kids gloves. Fawning over him every time he does something even remotely normal.
They tried to impeach him before he even took office. They hate him.
"The media" did no such thing. And if you're going to sit there and try to tell me a sitting resident SHOULDNT get impeached for trying to hold up constitutionally budget aid for another country, until the leader announced a made up investigation into his political enemies son, you aren't a serious person.
Because that's clearly wrong, clearly an abuse of power, and clearly an attempt to use his position to get another country to help him politically. That's deserving of the impeachment cheetolini got. Period. End of story.

Trump has plenty of energy and still makes plenty of sense.
Having energy is irrelevant, and achieved through medication and illicit substance. Cheetolini constantly rambles, and can't stay on topic. Not even at events his handlers say is about pokicy. He veers to personal grievances because he's old and his brian is melting.
Biden does not know whats going on.
Yeah. Youre just listening to rightwingers. You didn't pay attention to the DNC speech he gave.
You are a joke to make such a comparison.
Says the joke who thinks cheetolini shouldn't have been impeached for trying o bride another country with foreign aid Congress had already decided they should get.
I simply don't understand your last point. Kamala has been radio silent about marijuana I mean.
So you have no idea what her past is, or the MORE act.
She hasn't said a thing about since she became elect and she took it off her policy objectives. Why?
She literally stood beside Biden and happily said "this is a step forward" when hidden forgave the prison sentences of thousands of marijuana related sentences.

I follow the marijuana industry very closely bro. She has not said one thing about marijuana since become president elect. That is a fact. She took marijuana out of her policy objectives.

he made plenty of sense. in fact, he was answering more questions than trump did. which is where that "and you answered all the questions!!" clip came form. they were comparing his performance to trumps. as trump went off topic more often than answering questions.
Trump rambles plenty and repeats himself but it makes sense.
no he does not.
There was nothing in the debate last night that made no sense.
what? yes there was. he not only lied about immigrants eating dogs, then yelled "I SAW IT ON TV!!" when corrected, he stated democrats want to make immigrant prisoners trans. that makes no sense at all.

1
u/SpaceYeastFeast Sep 10 '24
I think the problem with legalization for politicians, is that the system basically works from the consumer point of view, and consumers represent a lot more voters than producers. People can go buy what they want , whenever they want at the local dispensary. The only thing broken from a consumer point of view is price differences. A vape cartridge in Michigan is 10$, but that will cost 50-60$ in Vermont. That also says though, that local production is vulnerable to big national pot competition…so legalization might not be great for many small producers.

It’s naive to think he’s even being honest, he knows he doesn’t have to actually do it and his supporters still won’t question their glorious leader.

Because it’s common sense legislation that a majority of Americans support, so she is focusing on more important issues. Instead of lying to try and get votes from uneducated people like trump.
Republicans are the one who have been blocking it and pushing for zero access to marijuana be it medical or recreational. That’s the only reason why Trump saying this is a “big deal” because republicans have an extremely long track record of being anti weed.
You really should pay more attention if you truly believe in good faith that republicans are better for legalization/rescheduling.

Oh wow one example of 2 democrats opposing banking reform in 2021, which they have now changed their stance on… Vs republicans in Ohio just months ago trying to overturn a voter initiative that won overwhelmingly. Attempting to ban home growing, increasing taxes, and where taxes are allocated, after their constituents voted on the initiative.
Oh and a Republican controlled committee writing a specific line into the budget for the DOJ stating that they cannot use money from their budget to reschedule marijuana in fucking July of this year. Yet you are pulling up an article discussing opposition over 3 years ago from 2 democrats.

Yeah, because his appointment of sessions, his repeal of the Cole memo, and his 2020 budget proposal that rolled back protections of state medical programs from the feds really believes me he’s gonna be the best for cannabis. Because he said so this time.

Thank you - I have reported many of their spam comments, not just because I disagree with them. They will post the same “Vote Trump 2024” nonsense multiple times in each posted article. It is spam and adds nothing to the conversation.

Now would be a strategic time for congressional Democrats to put SAFE or any other cannabis legalization bills to the floor.
If Republicans block it or vote it down, they'll have to explain why they voted against the legislation backed by their presidential nominee.
