Single-issue voters around America got an infusion of hope when Presidential candidate Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) attacked Senator Kamala Harris (D) during Wednesday night’s debate for her now-conservative looking positions on cannabis. Candidate Harris may have harmed her campaign by failing to respond head-on.

- “She put over 1,500 people in jail for marijuana violations and then laughed about it when she was asked if she ever smoked marijuana,” Gabbard said. The last part refers to the Senator’s February appearance on The Breakfast Club and proves that no good appearance on Power 106 goes unpunished.
- Harris responded belatedly by pointing out that Gabbart has shilled for Syria’s dictator, winning the historically-overlooked proportionality battle.
- #KamalaHarrisDestroyed was trending on Thursday, allowing the candidate minimal wiggle room on her biggest unguardable flank this side of Willie Brown. Harris has introduced the MORE Act, a decriminalization bill that her backers hope will obscure her anti-pot past.
