Neither is Arkansas, Kansas, or any other border state for that matter.

I can respect that.
It is, when concerning alcohol. Distillation, legal. Brewing, legal. Open container in car, legal. Public drinking, legal.
It differs from County to county, as I understand, but last time I checked (been a couple years) this is true.

Yes hillbillies love alcohol, but they *hate* "devil weed" in that part of the country. Even medical cannabis is not legal in Missouri.

I was just being facetious I'm actually from Pa. but I come from NY and know about Trump since '72 and he has always been a POS.
Which is why I never suggested otherwise. I never said anything about Missouri and cannabis. I said the alcohol culture there is similar to marijuana culture elsewhere.
EDIT: I reread what I said, and it simply hit the page wrong. I meant to compare cannabis culture to alcohol culture. I just wasn't clear.

He didn't fool anyone. Everyone who voted for him knew exactly what he stands for and what his plans are.Sure he careshe doesn't give a shit about anyone he's about ready to fuck his supporters healthcare. He may have fooled a bunch of country bumpkin assholes into believing he's a populist president but I'm from Missouri, show me.
He caters to a core group of mostly middle age, male, white conservatives. And they knew that he wanted to do, like:
Repeal Obamaca
Ban Muslims from the US
Deport all illegals in the country
Drain the swamp(and build a new one)
Friendly towards alt right(neo nazi)
Build the wall
Bring back jobs
Aka MAGA
People voted for him mostly because he's a businessman and they hope he can bring back more jobs, they are angry at Obama for alienating them and maybe they listen too much to Alex Jones and Fox news. Then there are the rest who are far right(racist conservatives) which in my opinion are a minority of his supporters.
I agree that he's all about himself. When I said he cares what people think I didn't mean that he personally cares for anyone, I meant that there is a core group of people to whom he has been catering too and their approval is important to him for political reasons.
This is where legalization comes into place.
Here are some quotes by Trump during his campaign.
"In terms of marijuana and legalization, I think that should be a state issue, state-by-state,”
“in favor of medical marijuana 100 percent”
“I know people that have serious problems… and… it really, really does help them.”
“I would, I would really want to think about that one Bill because in some ways, I think it’s good and in other ways, it’s bad.”
So my point is that if he chose to take a more progressive stand on Marijuana during his campaign then that leads me to believe that he feels that his core group see's marijuana favorably. Also as a businessman and one who promises to be "the greatest job producer that god has ever created" it would be contradictory for him to eliminate jobs via repealing laws thay would essentially destroy thousands of jobs in the canna industry.

Yes, it would be. So what? Has this guy not lied to you enough to figure it out yet?

Maybe re-read the post again, I think you missed the point entirely.
Btw this is not a Trump vs whatever thread.
And maybe I need to emphasize that I'm not a Trump supporter, did not vote for Trump and despise his POS ass as much as anyone who opposes him.

then your efforts are better utilized on state level petitions and ballot propositions.
I don't get it either, I'm not a Trump supporter, yet my conservative-Ish views have caused people to insult me by calling me a supporter. (Yes, that is insulting. Fuck trump)
Hell, I voted for G.J. as I felt he was the best suited for the job. (I agree on most of his stances too) This is the one election where third party should have been an option. Not saying he would have won, but people refused to show up and it cut third party votes out when they should have earned a place on the ballot. To me, it was just one big shit show.
Hell, I would vote for vermin supreme before hillary or trump.
EDIT: The other issue I have is that people weren't voting to support their party. Most voters were voting against the other party. Meaning that many trump supporters only voted for him to keep hillary out of office and vice versa.

Good point Uncle. With the possibility of Jeff Sessions taking us backwards this is arguably the most important time to try to push forward and use the momentum that we have with so many states being either recreational or medicinal, or both.
If we think there's no chance now with Sessions about to take office, what makes us think that things will be any more favorable in the future? I mean if your stance is "this is a waste of time because Sessions and Trump are both turds" then you have to assume that what they will do in the future will make it even MORE futile of an effort of cannabis legalization. Wouldn't it make more sense to try to act now rather than later?

Lol, he has gone back or signaled that he will go back on just about every campaign issue he has promised:
1) Obamacare: Many dumbass crackers (uneducated) thought that Obamacare and ACA were 2 different things and the rest thought he was just bluffing. The 5 top states who have the highest enrollment in the ACA aka Obamacare voted for Trump. You say he cares about his dumbass hillbillies?
http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/states-won-trump-highest-obamacare-enrollment/story?id=44344734
2) Draining the swamp. With the swamp creatures he has proposed for his cabinet (Goldman Sachs alumni) I hardly call that draining the swamp.
3) Build the wall and let Mexico pay for it. We're building the wall and we're paying for it.
4) Bring back jobs. They're not coming back period.
5) Marijuana legalization. One name...Sessions.
Come on man too many fell for the okie doke, he's a con man snake oil salesman. I hope I'm wrong for the sake of those who are afraid that this country will go back into a dark environment, but having known about Trump for more than 40 years I'm afraid I'm not wrong.
If the people who know him best overwhelmingly opposed him (New Yorkers) what makes you think some Hillbillie from Tennessee knows him better?

Maybe because NY is a blue state and not his target demographic. Obviously going to vote for Hillary.

That's right this is a blue town, he tried as a Democrat and was rejected for the conman and lack of integrity that he possesses so he went to where those traits are admired...the Republican Party.Maybe because NY is a blue state and not his target demographic. Obviously going to vote for Hillary.
then why did the dems pick Hillary?
im not being facetious, she has a track record for being on the fringe of legality. benghazi was just one of the most recent. she has been taken to court almost as often as trump over the years. one may be less corrupt than the other, but the fact still remains(as i understand) that both are corrupt con artists.

Benghazi?
How was Benghazi in ANY way illegal?
An understaffed embassy was hit by a flash mob and they mistakenly put the blame elsewhere initially and corrected it when more accurate information surfaced.
