    They need to Pardon all weed related felonies so we can vote .
  • @Moonmaedyn
    Maybe they should try a SHOCK COLLAR to keep him awake? I'd pay money to watch that...

    Working in Corrections as an RN, reclassification of Marijuana is crucial for not ruining young adult's lives and keeping jails less crowded. You see 20 somethings getting arrested for possession of a single joint 😳 and it is craziness! Legalize the stuff everywhere already!! And no, I don't smoke. It's not for me. 🗳💙
  • If they are going to ease restrictions on weed, they need to review the ridiculously harsh sentences of people who are now in prison because of it.
  • The idea that cannabis is even close to steroids OR cocaine is ridiculous.
  • @Sharonmxg
    the channeling of Johnny Carson was a golden moment.
  • @gus8824
    Reclassifying cannabis will make it way easier for medical institutions to study and research, potentially finding new uses or debunking false claims accurately, this is important

    8:53 But that's the same thing he said last time: "I only hire the best people". And then he fired them "like dogs" and said they were "dumb as rocks".
  • @andrewr7820
    We sometimes occupy dementia patients with "busy work" tasks like folding towels. Seems like the stack of papers is their version of that approach.

    If he passed away in his sleep at the trial, no one would even notice.
  • @eternyti
    "Oh my god, did someone slaughter a goat in here?" That was Kristi Noem.
  • Jeez, America. Just legalize it. Every country that has done so has had zero negative effects and has helped create new businesses and income streams.
  • @MrPhotodoc
    The "If He Wins" Time magazine will be right down there with OJ's "If I Did It" book.
  • @sebman1982
    That Johnny Carson impression was gold!
  • As an old lady (72) I vote yes for legal weed. I grew up with pot but never used. It was in my late 50’s I was forced to try pot for pain after 8 spine surgeries. I do not smoke but am very happy for edibles. I make green butter then cook and bake with it. Here in Virginia we can grow plants but not buy pot. It’s still crazy that marijuana was ever put in a category like heroine. You can get anything you want in the mail.
  • @areyoufriendly
    “If He Wins” Guys, there’s no convincing the other side, so just make sure you’re registered to vote and vote early. If you know someone who isn’t registered to vote, get on their ass. This is no-fvcking-around time.
  • One of the best monologues. Thanks Stephen and thank you writers! You deserve credit!
