Will the new rec marijuana laws in several states become irrelevant?

So with Trump in the house and a conservative senate and house are we going to see federal pressure on these states to overturn their laws?

I don't think it's a top priority. Trump's campaign mentioned decreasing the scheduling from I to II. I don't know how much say he'd have in that, or if he'd care to do so.
He's a bit of a populist (meaning he'll go with the flow for the most part on non-decisive issues), and certainly wont try to mess with those demographics in his first term.
I don't think he really gives a fuck about recreational marijuana, is for medical marijuana, and fighting it in states that allow it is counter productive to getting re-elected.

100% this. Trump's too business savvy to keep weed illegal, if he has any say in it. IDK about Congress and Senate, but I'm confident Trump wouldn't veto a weed legalization bill if it landed on his desk and wasn't a piece of shit.

I think he's savvy enough to try to not make it federally legal and just ignore the states.

Hillary Clinton, yes. Donald Trump, I don't think so.

If Trump was smart he would legalize ganja. I doubt the Republicans as a whole are ever going to do that. They are very strong about having morals and most see cannabis as wrong, in that party.
I don't think Trump would have the desire nor the support to legalize. In fact I think he brown noses the law enforcement so much he will give them more powers against cannabis.
It's a wait and shall see game at this point. All stocked up on bourbon for now.
