It is funny because after trump got elected the one thing that the opposition took solace in was the gains made in legalizing weed
I would rather see you lose than win myself

It would be such an easy way to curry favor with a lot of non Republicans and, hell, non voters. And at what cost? Hardline supporters would still get their posturing on taxes and guns and abortion.

You greatly underestimate how much Jeff Sessions hates everything not specifically approved in the Bible.

I mean more from a party leadership standpoint. It seems like they have a very narrow and weirdly cobbled together Almost Plurality of a voting block that I would be looking to expand. Yet it seems like they're going narrower and narrower.

Compromise. The original proposed deal was .03/oz exempting diet drinks, but the council passed a .015/oz including diet drinks.
But diet soda isn't exactly 'harmless', ie. just because it's zero calories doesn't mean it has zero effect on the body. Science hasn't quite figured out exactly how though.

Their leadership is mostly an echo chamber though. If all things were equal, they'd get killed regularly at the ballot box. But the difference is that their supporters turn out nearly every year and ours don't.

I have to admit some level of amazement, weed was never my thing, or drug uses in general, but I cannot believe how trenched in people are when it comes to the idea of any type of push me pull you about marijuana. Before you do kids bite me in the ass, understand I'm just talking about my preference not your lifestyle. I could give a s***. I'm on the record about enjoying various forms of alcohol, so I'm just a different type of sinner.

Oh FFS, Marsha Blackburn claiming 1/3 of the people at her town hall were fro her district. She (people told her) heard people in line were being told to claim they live in district 7, and the parking lot had a lot of out of state plates. Then she pivots to tell Wolf that he is hung up on percentages.
She keeps trying to get to her stump speech. Tried 3 times to get her message out versus answering the questions.

White House asked the FBI to bury the Russia stories.
From the people that were upset Bill Clinton spoke to Loretta Lynch, because hypocrisy isn't a thing.
