Voted in the wrong governor and house for that to happen.

Under Youngkin? Yeah, no way. We won’t see legalized weed until he forfeits his position to run for president, or when he’s done.
It’s a damn shame.

In Virginia the governor can only one run one term at a time. He could be back and in a greater numbers but not consecutively

He’s running for president. And honestly, with Trump and DeSantis tearing each other apart, I think Youngkin has a good shot coming in and looking very reasonable for GOP.
Virginia Governorship gave him the baseline to run for president just like FL governship did for DeSantis.
Remember how important local politics are. VOTE!

Mark my words, Glenn Youngkin will get less than 2% of the primary vote. maybe less than 1%. I doubt he will even win VA. He's done absolutely nothing of note that he can point to, unless his strategy is to say "well I would've been a strong conservative big boy like DeSantis, but the liberals wouldn't let me." People need a reason to vote for someone, and theres absolutely nothing of note Youngkin can say he's done in this state other than win. He's toast.
I tend agree with the central premise that Trump and DeSantis may eat eat each other alive, but it could also be over the second Trump calls DeSantis "Miss Florida" in the debates. That said, should the big two eat each other alive, I just can't see Youngkin being the one to break through to victory.
Of course - whoever wins, we lose. feel free to bookmark this post and own me the day Youngkin cruises to a 49 state electoral victory 😂

It's vital that trumpkin be cast as the wolf in sheep's clothing that he is. We can't let him get away with appearing as a moderate republican on the national stage like he did in VA

You’re right. I forgot about that. Updated.

Dude, if Youngkin drops out you've going to see the real crazy.
Winsome Sears is pretty far out and pretty far right.

Youngkin indicated he wouldn't stand in the way.
It's the house that's really stalling it from happening.

Weed is legal. What you're wanting is a retail market. Which may not happen. But between going to a medical dispensary or growing your own or picking it up from whatever instagram delivery people you might choose, I don't think anyone is having a hard time getting weed these days.

Yes and no.
It isn’t federally legal, and, like it or not, federal overrides state. You’re still taking a chance by having it. Even with a medical cert. Will anyone mess with you about it? Not unless you’re doing something stupid. But cops gonna cop.
And while you can have it, you can’t buy it legally without a medical cert. Which doesn’t really make it anymore legal to the average consumer than talking to their plug. Not everyone is interested in cultivating their own plants or wants to deal with the black market. I’ve got a family - I’m not gonna risk anything from some dude at the murder mart. Is it easy to find? Sure - if your friends have hookups - but not all circles do.
So, yeah, it’s legal to own (up to a limit) and MMJ is an avenue to access, but it’s not really legal to the average person that just wants a dime to enjoy their Saturday afternoon.

I would say "I hope this teaches folks a lesson about what Republicans actually want regarding cannabis" but those people dont really care anyway

Came here to say this. Clown is ok with supporting poison, but not cannabis.
