      Right? I hate how often journalists write headlines that presume to know people’s beliefs by taking everything they say at face value. It’s like they just have no concept of people acting in bad faith and saying whatever it takes to advance their agenda.

      If I had to guess I’d say DeSantis has no opinions about weed that don’t involve how he can use it to advance his political ambitions. His whole shtick is getting people riled up about imaginary problems so he can sell himself and his authoritarian policies as the solution, and weed has historically been an easy way to get certain people in a tizzy.
