Does Donald Trump want to legalize weed? Here’s where he stands on marijuana legislation

“Over the past few months, Trump has expressed more direct support for the decriminalization of marijuana. During a press conference at Mar-a-Largo on Aug. 8, Trump said that as more states to legalize marijuana, he’s beginning to agree ‘a lot more’ with it. ‘As we legalize it (marijuana) throughout the country, whether that’s a good thing or a bad thing, it’s awfully hard to have people all over the jails that are in jail right now for something that’s legal,’ Trump said during the press conference. In his Truth Social post, Trump expanded, ‘I believe it is time to end needless arrests and incarcerations of adults for small amounts of marijuana for personal use.’”
