One of the many things that Trump voters almost certainly didn't vote for, but are almost certainly getting, is a crackdown on weed. As Stephen Colbert reminded us last night, "Attorney General and Forest Gnome Whose Riddles Are Kind of Racist Jeff Sessions" has something of an issue with marijuana. For one thing, he seems to have a fairly insane view of how dangerous it is compared with other substances: Colbert's Alabama lawman voice was phenomenal, as was his destruction of Sessions' argument. "Sure, marijuana's only slightly less awful than heroin," the Late Show host said, "like how burning your tongue on hot cocoa is only slightly less awful than being set on fire." Colbert's real assessment—that weed is of course far less dangerous and harmful than heroin—is backed up by science and data, so it won't get much love in this administration. But for one thing, more than 30,000 people died after overdosing on opioids like heroin and prescription painkillers in 2016. There has never been a recorded death from a marijuana overdose. As Colbert pointed out elsewhere in the monologue, "paranoia has seized the Trump White House," as staffers have come to believe they're under attack by the "deep state" and are afraid to speak during meetings. Maybe they should consider making some lifestyle adjustments? Certainly, things can't get much worse.
