The Dem House won't do anything useful.

I can see him do that. And i cant wait for seeing the dems squirm and find ways to oppose weed

actually good point on the timing

to legalize weed you need congress, sorry.

Trump doesn't need the House's permission to re-schedule marijuana.

under the wording of the law, he can't until a bill amends the wording, he can't re-schedule it. I have been talking to pharmacists about this

Ok. I thought that was entirely up to the DEA.

Which is why he needs to do it

He can bully some of the Republicans into supporting it in the Senate and the Dems are the ones who will hinge on it passing or not

He can order the DEA not to enforce it then.

and since they control the house....

But that's not the same as legalization devpav

Dems are not going to vote for anything introduced by Trump.

That is exactly the point

They've already proven that they're too insane to negotiate with Trump.

one of the parts of the FDA(ct) was that there has to be a "Safe synthetic alternative," and if you follow the news, there are no good synthetic alternatives to Weed despite the best efforts of big Pharma, cartels and basement chemists

So introduce a bill legalizing marajuana

Does CBD oil count?

Either the Dems shoot themselves in the foot, or Trump gets to parade around his bipartisanship

win-win

If you smoke the weed, you have the 🅱ig gay

Trump already proffered a bipartisan DACA deal (which would've cost him his entire base if he was serious) and the Dems balked.

No Devpav, CBD is an extract, not a synthetic

@devpav The point is flying over your head

constantly and consistently

Your point is that the Dems will somehow deal with Trump to legalize marijuana and my point is that the Dems are too crazy for that.

Nope, thats not his point

No, my point is that the Democrats will either implode on refusing to pass a weed deal or will have to concede something to Trump

I am BANKING on the Dems being crazy

I'm banking on the Dem House not passing anything for 2 years.

it will for sure be interesting to watch

lots of shutdowns coming

which isn't a bad thing necessarily, as i don't think the trump administration will behave the same way the obama admin did, which was to try to make shutdowns as painful for citizens as possible.

I remember when I thought that a government shutdown was going to be like the Purge. I was a little retard back then.

I think the Democrats are more likely to be dysfunctional for the same reasons the Republicans had problems passing things. The centrists and the far left will disagree. I'd love to see a centrist Speaker and therefore the ability to develop bipartisan legislation. The Republicans for years have operated on the principle that nothing passes the House without enough Republican votes to pass without Democrat help. I hate that.

It'd be nice to once again see stuff go through because they have the votes period rather than requiring the votes of just one party.

So much could get done if the leaders permit alliances from issue to issue.

Blame autocorrect

My phone has a sense of humor

the government getting stuff done means you have less freedoms, less rights, and those will now be near impossible to get back.
