You need to dig deeper before making such confident claims. First of all, Portugal didn’t “legalise the drug trade”. Ignoring that, the results of decriminalisation in Portugal were extremely positive until the government started defunding the rehab and adjacent user focused social programs that accompanied it. Before that they proved very clearly that decriminalisation and a focus on harm mitigation produces the best outcomes for society (obviously, like how could it be any other way?).
