Donald Trump's position on cannabis appears to have flip-flopped wildly over the years. (No comb-over jokes - promise.)
"Legalized marijuana is always a very difficult question - for medicinal purposes and medical purposes, it's fine," says Trump in the video.
Earlier this year, Trump told FOX's Sean Hannity he supports medical users "100 percent," but added that overall, marijuana legalization has been "a bad thing for Colorado." He added the Evergreen state is now facing some "big, big problems."
But back in 1990, Trump told the Sarasota Herald America's drug policy was "a joke," and legalizing all drugs was the answer when it came to "tak[ing] the profit away from these drug czars."

He’s not going to deport Justin Bieber?
THIS may be the thing that finally brings Trump down.
Wow! you are desperate. How do you think this compares with the country being overrun with third world illegal aliens?
More reasons to vote for The Donald.
Marijuana has legit medical use and Justin Bieber is far from the worst to come out of pop culture. He’s just an annoying but harmless rich kid sewing his oats.
I’m for Medical Marijuana. This is silly.
“I’’m very capable of changing to anything I want to change to.”
said Trump.
Well, stune my beeber.
Trump showing a little libertarian leg?
Well, well, well... we have our own version of Media Matters and MoveOn.org right here at FR, ready to pounce on anything Donald Trump says.
If it was kept legitimate and not like California that has docs that sell prescriptions to perfectly healthy users. It usually turns into a joke.
yeah, I’m voting Cruz but this guy was in the spotlight for 40 years or more.
asked a million questions a million different times.
i can’t imagine anyone giving the same answers to the same questions over a span of 40 years without some contradictions.
i personally have gone from Cruz to Trump and back 32 times before settling on Cruz :)
Yeah, would you like to try that again with its context.
You are amusing. Best try to see how Cruz and Trump can align themselves.
This is Free Republic and folks here are very well informed.
I agree. I should have stipulated that.
100% in context.
He was making the point he doesn’t have to act like a douche all the time and can turn it on or off and will act Presiential when the time comes.
You don’t want to acknowledge the broader truth in his statement.
Trump didn’t think about the implications either, how he was exposing his whole game.
He hedged on marijuana generally. O’Reilly has a bee under his butt about pot. He was try to get Trump to say he would stop liberalization but Trump wouldn’t do it.
Taking his statement about how he can adjust his attitude/demeanor and trying to apply it to anything outside of that is taking it out of context.
