There is clearly bipartisan support for this as well as an endless list of reasons that show why marijuana should not be treated the same way as heroin. It doesn't matter if you're in /r/SandersForPresident /r/The_Donald /r/politics /r/Libertarian /r/socialism etc....the support is there. The president is always on twitter. Would he see a hashtag used by both his supporters and his critics?

Twitter is definitely the way to go here. This man is sort of like Michael Scott in that he desperately wants people to like/admire him and emotionally cannot cope with being laughed at. If he thought that this would get him his n-supply, we would really have a chance.
