2022 AdWatch: on Drugs


Thomas McDermott: AdWatch: lights up a joint and inhales

McDermott has released a campaign ad that sees him walk the extra mile in advocating for the legalization of marijuana. In the ad, McDermott doesn't just talk about why he supports legalizing weed; he actually smokes a joint. "The legalization of cannabis is important in this campaign," McDermott says in the video after lighting up the joint and inhaling. The video was filmed in Illinois, where marijuana has been legalized.
