Like, it wasn't even close, man.
Last night the RIU editorial board met in an unregulated "social club" in Fort Collins, CO and nearly unanimously agreed that Hillary Clinton was the only sensible choice for President of America, man.
While we found that neither candidate was, you know, really pro-marijuana, we agreed that Clinton's worldview offered more opportunities for Americans to take the stick out of their butt and chill.
This was not an easy decision. The first several hours of our meeting mostly consisted of fumbling around with different dab rigs until we frankly forgot why we were meeting. But eventually the topic came up.
While we agree that Mr. Trump's memes were sometimes dank, most of them contained information that we could not believe no matter how high we got. God knows, we tried.
In addition, it is the strict policy of RIU to not promote hard drugs such as cocaine. Sure, we know how to turn a blind eye, but when they begin to erode the functionality of a Presidential candidate, they can no longer be ignored.
Hillary Clinton may not have offered us much of a look into her views on fine herb, but her husband Bill's appearance at the DNC left us no doubt that he is strictly a "top shelf" marijuana aficionado. Additional, Mr. Trump's reliance on Russia for support in a national election made the board apprehensive that the current marijuana gene pool was in danger of being corrupted by ruderalis, a dangerous invasive species.
We also considered Gary Johnson and Jill Stein, we found the former lacking in experience and temperament. Ms. Stein's candidacy was admittedly more attractive than either of the major parties candidates in some ways. However it was agreed that anybody who thought she has a hope in hell had had waaaaay too many edibles. Also, voting for either created a significant risk of Mr. Trump stumbling into the office. This is not a risk we are prepared to take considering the fact that his likely appointees to the SCOTUS would probably put an end to legal marijuana consumption and cultivation for decades. Therefore for likely third party voters, we at RIU recommend that you get over your butthurt and chill. Just chill. Unless you are in a cool state, then you can do what you want.
Given our long history of open debate, we are confident that many of you will not agree. But, like, that's just your opinion man.
Vote for Hilly, pls.
