I have to really, really dig for this one, but Trump’s attitude re: cannabis is that it should be up to the states to decide, and has also been quoted as supporting medical cannabis. I think overall, this is a good move, not as good as it being Federally legal would be, but a step in the right direction.
It’s just the other 99.95% of the things that he does I don’t agree with. :)

No, there are at least two other types:
The uninformed. Keep in mind that the vast majority of people in the US are completely uninformed about any of this. I’ll regularly see posts by people who I think of as more or less intelligent and aware of world events who will nonetheless be completely in the dark about what Trump is up to.
The propagandized. There are a ton of people for whom the anti-Democrat propaganda has worked, and who will “hold their nose” and vote against the person they’ve been told is a baby-killer or whatever. They don’t support Trump in everything he does, but they’d rather him than someone who wants to put political dissidents in a gulag. They don’t see the irony now, because the propaganda doesn’t tell them about CECOT.
I also am fully willing to believe that there are others who aren’t against or for him, but they definitely aren’t particularly loud.

Because Demcorats are immune to propaganda, right? BlueMAGA is no better at detecting propaganda as MAGA

I don’t know where you get the idea that that’s what I was saying here. I was talking about Trump supporters, and I don’t think many of them are Democrats.

The strawman.
