Tell me why he shouldn't make it a focus for 2020 and beyond.

> declassify federally and let the states decide.

Is that a decision that he can make, or does it need to go through congress?

Considering that the drug is classified by the DEA and Trump is their boss I don't see why he can't do it unilaterally

It's just like DACA, an executive order to specifically not enforce an extant law. The problem with that is that a future president can use an executive order to remove a previous executive order.

Unless that president is being blocked by a 9th circuit judge or a supreme court decision.

doubt a president would take executive action to recriminalize pot after it was decriminalized. that’s bad politics right there
