The Harris campaign hits Donald Trump for « brazen flip-flops » on marijuana.
Days after Vice President Kamala Harris took questions on her changing views on policy, her campaign sent out a memo criticizing Donald Trump on his « brazen flip flops », including on marijuana reform, accusing the former president of « just making things up » ahead of the election.
Saturday morning, Trump signaled in a social media post he supports a ballot measure in Florida, where he lives, that would legalize marijuana recreationally. While calling for the state legislature to « prohibit the use of it in public spaces, so we do not smell marijuana everywhere we go », Trump said, « someone should not be a criminal in Florida, when this is legal in so many other States. »
« We do not need to ruin lives & waste Taxpayer Dollars arresting adults with personal amounts of it on them, and no one should grieve a loved one because they died from fentanyl laced marijuana », Trump added.
The Harris campaign is framing Trump’s support for the measure as another change in policy in a long line of « brazen flip-flops », according to a memo on Saturday, first obtained by ABC News.
