Anumber of Florida conservatives have spoken out against Donald Trump after the former president supported legalizing recreational marijuana in the state.
In a post on Truth Social on Saturday, Trump suggested backs Florida, where he lives, approving a constitutional amendment in November which would legalize recreational marijuana for adults.
The Republican said that Florida should not "ruin lives & waste Taxpayer Dollars," arresting adults with personal amounts of the drug on them, and no one should "grieve a loved one because they died from fentanyl laced marijuana" in the state.
"Whether people like it or not, this will happen through the approval of the Voters, so it should be done correctly," Trump said. "We need the State Legislature to responsibly create laws that prohibit the use of it in public spaces, so we do not smell marijuana everywhere we go, like we do in many of the Democrat run Cities."
In response, Florida conservatives, including those who support Trump's former GOP primary rival, Governor Ron DeSantis, who is against Florida's Amendment 3, have hit out at the Republican Party's 2024 presidential nominee for voicing support for legalizing recreational marijuana.
