Trump implies that he might legalize cannabis.

I see hope for legalization here 'cause trump will need ammo for his smoke and mirrors show to distract from the Mueller team FACTS that can't be denied.
........... and hopefully he can get this done before he decides to do the right thing and resign!

true dat, he's a hopeless case, but it's gonna be 'fun' seeing him grasping at straws as he juggles furiously while his house of cards collapses around him .
BREAKING NEWS: Washington's biggest liar in deep 'stuff' now!!!
He may have had a strategy, but Rudolph W. Giuliani hatched it almost entirely in secret.
The White House counsel had no idea. Neither did the White House chief of staff, nor the White House press secretary, nor the new White House lawyer overseeing its handling of the Russia investigation.
They watched, agog, as Giuliani, the president’s recently installed personal attorney, freestyled on live television Wednesday night about the president’s legal troubles and unveiled an explosive new fact: that Trump reimbursed his longtime personal attorney, Michael Cohen, for the $130,000 paid to adult-film actress Stormy Daniels to ensure her silence about an alleged sexual encounter with Trump.
Giuliani’s attempt to defuse a ticking time bomb exposed Trump’s failure to divulge the full story about the Daniels hush money and highlighted contradictory public statements from him and White House spokesmen. One month ago, Trump told reporters that he did not know about the payment to Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, or where Cohen got the money to make it.
Aides and advisers to the president — who were scrambling Thursday morning to manage the fallout of Giuliani’s interview with Sean Hannity, a Trump-friendly Fox News Channel host — expressed a mixture of exasperation and horror. One White House official texted a reporter a string of emoji characters in response, including a tiny container of popcorn.
A second White House official, who like most others interviewed for this story spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive topic, said of the president, “His story is obviously not consistent anymore.”
The episode was just the latest convulsion for a White House that perpetually navigates turbulence, careening from one crisis to another, most of them of the president’s own making. It has become standard operating procedure for Trump and his aides to deceive the public with false statements and shifting accounts.
“It’s about time that our public officials started telling us the truth,” said one former Trump adviser who remains close to the White House. “There is nobody in America who didn’t think the president had the affair with the porn star. I doubt there’s anybody in America who didn’t think the president had Michael Cohen pay off the porn star.”
In this case, Giuliani said he was trying to solve one problem for Trump — by establishing that the payment to Daniels came from personal funds and was “funneled” through a law firm, arguing it therefore did not violate campaign finance laws.
Giuliani said in an interview with The Washington Post that he discussed the issue with Trump a few days ago and that they agreed that he would reveal details about the reimbursement.
“He was well aware that at some point when I saw the opportunity, I was going to get this over with,” Giuliani said.
Asked whether he might be fired for what he told Hannity, Giuliani replied, “No, no, no! I’m not going to get fired.” Laughing, he added: “But if I do, I do. It wouldn’t be the first time it ever happened. But I don’t think so, no.”
Tony Carbonetti, a longtime friend and adviser to Giuliani, said he was dining with the former New York mayor on Manhattan’s Upper East Side on Wednesday night before he went on Fox. “We thought it was a quick hit and he was coming right back,” Carbonetti said, adding that Giuliani returned to the dinner table around 10:15 p.m. and seemed pleased with how the interview went.
Carbonetti warned that those lampooning Giuliani are mistaken. “If you’ve been around Rudy, there’s always a reason for it,” he said. “If you knew a narrative was coming out, wouldn’t you want to tell the story on your terms? . . . He wanted to get ahead of it.”

And hiring Giuliani for your LAWYER??? Again folks as a former NY'er I have the 'Lived there, suffered the BS' experience under the Giuliani administration, as a pot smoker he'd just as soon throw you right under the frigging bus, this is one guy you DON'T want to see next to trump.
Giuliani is so bad that he makes Sessions look just like a stoner.
BTW, Sarah 'bigger liar than trump' Sanders has now come out to say: Trump didn't know about Stormy Daniels payment "at the time" but learned "later"
ohhh so when he gets CAUGHT he wants to get ahead of it?!?!?!

what a lying bloated bag of crap he is.
what a cartoon this would make - Giuliani shoving Trump off the platform in front of a train while saying "this is gonna hurt you a lot more than me, but we need to get it over with, LOL!"
S4L, i am out of rep at the moment (you know how that works) but i'll be back when reloaded for bear...
I never dreamed that my fellow Americans were nutty enough to make Trump President. I mean, this guy? This Archetypal New-York-City Con man? This incredible charlatan? This guy whose life story is about what billionaires can get away with?
It blows me away that his devotees can't see it. He does something to their minds that's uncanny, something that stands on a platform of decades of relentless right wing agitprop. They actually trust him.

It's like Alaska electing an oil attorney who helped Exxon and Conoco screw the State, to be Governor. Oh.. wait.. they did that already...
Edit: After which he helped Exxon, Conoco, and BP screw the State, though this time he did it from Juneau's Governor's mansion. "What ever you're going to do, do it in style." ;^>)
Ask your average registered voter: Would you rather go out for beer and pizza, then cuddle in front of the fireplace, to watch The Big Bang Theory, or would you rather go to a political debate, and before-hand, research the inconsistencies between what a candidate says, and what they've done.

This has to be my favorite paragraph in the article. So can anyone explain to me that beyond "Witchhunt, Fake News & I don't/didn't know" has there been ANY consistency to any of his stories?
no, no you can't.......
you know, they say that every person rises to their given level of incompetence eventually. i guess next he will be the Pope until he dies, then...God? is Gods job on the line here?
I'm surprised that anyone is surprised about what any presidents do, especially if they are men who are found to be having extra-marital affairs....I wonder if there are any presidents in the past who have not had them?
i doubt if Carter did, or Ford or Nixon. although, Nixon was reportedly fond of slow dancing with Hoover while he was in drag costume.
MOST probably kept it clean while actually IN the White House, Clinton notwithstanding...
Monogamy is not a natural state for most men, particularly those that can afford these ehm.... 'indiscretions'.
*in my experience, since I have been hanging out with men from many different cultures in the past, some are more monogamous than others.
