A new poll has revealed changing attitudes to Trump among his Republican supporters.

One in three Republican voters would have preferred a different candidate to Donald Trump for the upcoming presidential election.

In March, the former president won enough primary races to secure the Republican nomination in the 2024 presidential election.

However, according to a survey of 1,003 Americans by Canadian polling firm Leger, Trump does not command the full support of his base and 33 percent of this demographic would have preferred another politician. Meanwhile, this proportion is higher (47 percent) among Republican voters aged 18 to 34 years old.

    Decriminalization is not legalization. That you don’t even know this…

    Then you have to limit actions to a specific dem senator, about not running ads about the things I listed. Holy mental gymnastics.

    And then the final: But but but it’s not being done fast enough!1!

    It’s unreal.

      Not only is decriminalization not legalization, even if something is legal your employer can prohibit it as a condition of employment.

      I can guarantee you, even if marijuana is completely legal tomorrow and available in every 7-11 I’ll be fired for testing positive, and for good reason. At least the reasons are good for me, for a lot of other jobs drug testing is bullshit.

        Yup, just like you can’t show up drunk, you can’t show up high. Anything requiring uhh sober operation will be an issue. The long time frame of marijuana staying in your body is an issue, I think the airlines said you can’t use it 28 days before your shift (lol effective ban).

          Maybe at some point in the future someone will come up with a test that determines if you’re high right now instead of our current test that only determines if you’ve used it in the past couple weeks. But until then prohibition for any safety related job is the only option.
