A Canadian Donald Trump supporter has made it back into the U.S. after being detained while trying to cross the northern border three weeks ago. Chris Landry, a longtime New Hampshire resident, made it safely back over the border on Wednesday after being unexpectedly denied re-entry due to decades-old marijuana misdemeanors, reported the Monadnock Ledger-Transcript. Landry, 46, who has held a green card since childhood, described how he was stopped at a Maine port of entry on July 6 and warned he faced arrest if he entered the country while citing two minor marijuana charges from the early 2000s. This is despite Landry traveling back and forth between the U.S. and his native Canada many times without issue. On July 24, a judge vacated his convictions on the basis Landry was unaware his guilty plea could carry immigration issues in the future. “We are thrilled that he has been able to rejoin his family, his community, and his workplace,” his attorney, Ron Abramson, told the paper. Landry previously said he now feels a “little differently” about whether he still backs Trump after being subjected to the president’s hardline immigration agenda.
