This story, viewed from this side of the Atlantic, is significant in that it is published by the UK's Daily Mail, a conservative media group that is a strong status quo supporter, and anti-cannabis, and has the middle-class power to shape British political policy and social mores:


Trump says he might back legislation to END the federal government's marijuana ban and let states make their own pot laws – just the opposite of what Jeff Sessions wants

Some states have decriminalized or legalized marijuana but it's still illegal under federal law

That creates a clash between federal and state law, leaving police and prosecutors in states with pot-friendly laws unsure what to enforce

Licensed marijuana growers and federal prosecutors are at odds, prompting a Colorado senator to introduce a bill to push the feds back

Republican Corey Gardner's legislation would effectively cancel out federal drug policy's supremacy over the states

Asked Friday how he sees the measure, President Trump said he would be likely to support it
