..but I dream.

Scott's in a pot haze of his own here.

Federal Anti-pot laws are not bad laws. They just haven't been enforced effectively and States have been allowed to flout them.

And if your real goal is to disqualify the number persons eligible for DACA consideration due to their breaking of Federal law by smoking pot, the number of eligible DACAs likely drops from ~ 800,000 to ~100,000.

Trump says OK to DACA getting guaranteed funding for the wall and end to chain migration in exchange for a mere ~100,000 eligible DACAs who were smart enough to keep their noses clean (that is, unless the other DACAs are caught doing cocaine.)

His narrative fails on the basis of its premise that Federal pot laws are bad laws. They are not.

FReegards!

Many would disagree. Many states disagree, and when put to a vote of the people the result has most often been a choice for legalization.

Seems like a pipe dream, since that is a compromise that would make nobody happy, so why would it pass? Trump’s base would still consider it amnesty, all the non-illegal alien medicinal and recreational pot users would be pissed, and the left would still oppose Trump on immigration because 100k voters is not enough for them to be satisfied with.
