Like I don’t even think it’s a pharma lobby issue anymore. They’ll just acquire nascent marijuana companies. The people around Biden are just that ideological?
Edit: I think @Baoist has a point about this stealing media attention from Covid outbreak and Biden going with herd immunity
Lol imagine thinking Biden would do anything cool
I mean, getting out of Afghanistan is pretty cool.
You can't reasonably expect anything else, but that doesn't mean it's impossible. I could certainly see legalization happening if there's a big enough scandal to distract from (the Cuomo strategy). It's just not something he actually wants to do, and all the bad press about Afghanistan (1) lacks any sort of popular basis and (2) will blow over in six months, if not far sooner.
